Great use of technic, Mike! I think the loco looks pretty good. The only enhancement I can think is to use the half wide technic beams with no studs (URL) - they'd probably look even better! And the tie is generally closer to the centre of the (...) (24 years ago, 5-Feb-01, to lugnet.trains)

Robert- Welcome to trains! :-) And congratulations on your width choice;-) I will try and answer some of your questions as I have been modeling in 8 wide for quite some time now... Modeling 8 wide is approximate to modeling in O scale, or 1:48. A (...) (24 years ago, 5-Feb-01, to lugnet.trains)

That building looks pretty neat. I only recently started building 4-sided buildings myself. Almost all of my prior stuff was only 6 or 8 studs deep with no back! I took a major step forward with my natural history museum. I think it is at least 20 (...) (24 years ago, 5-Feb-01, to lugnet.trains)
