I just finished a new rail truck that I am rather proud of: (URL) It is a color modified version of the Rio Grande Southern Motor #1 which currently resides in Colorado's Ridgeway Railroad Museum.

(...) Hi Tim, John and Thomas, Thanks for all the replies and thoughts. Yeah, blocky indeed. I am wishing there were a better 5 wide window option myself. I have considered cutting the 4 wide windscreens and making them into 5 wide. I have so many 4 (...) (19 years ago, 25-Apr-06, to lugnet.town)

(...) I like it, especially in situ:-) I'd say that the windshield looks too tall, and the nose isn't tall enough. Maybe raising the hood a full brick, which would have the effect of decreasing the windshield height as well. Actually, were it me, I (...) (19 years ago, 25-Apr-06, to lugnet.town, FTX)

(...) These are great Judy, was looking at them earlier today on brickshelf. I've always admired your ornate buildings and the amount of decoration you achieve with mostly basic bricks is really inspiring. cheers, Joseph (19 years ago, 24-Apr-06, to lugnet.town)

(...) It's been so long since I built it (five years ago???) that it's hard to remember. I do remember wanting to keep it pretty close to Tom's original design. I did widen it (of course;-) and augment the roof a bit, but other than that, I kept it (...) (19 years ago, 19-Apr-06, to lugnet.town, FTX)
