I don't believe you in this point. Ok, I have no example from your pages at
hand, but if that's the worst of all the models you ever built, I have to say
congratulations!

You are joking. It has some great details like the fan and the diesels below.
The shape in general is more than just ok also. And the true reason why this
engine has made it's way to so many train shows so far: It is very robust. Even
kids and none-AFOLs have no problems to bring it back into track. So this is
the test engine for the first round (with high chance of derailments)...

Congrats again! (This time without any ironical meaning.)
