(...) Very nice Mark! I remember having a HO model of that loco when I was a kid (probably Hornby), you've captured the colouring and details really well. And the logo is great - instantly recognisable! ROSCO (20 years ago, 2-Dec-04, to lugnet.trains, FTX)

(...) Just checked with Precious Princess Palace and the track in the my own freight train bundle is old gray. At least there is a lot of that out there. (20 years ago, 2-Dec-04, to lugnet.trains, FTX)

(...) <snip> Very nice, Mark. Big! :-d~~ I have a question about the scale. It appears to be 8 wide, which would imply to me to be more like 6.4mm:1ft. Are you going solely by track gauge for scaling, or width of the loco? I would guess that that (...) (20 years ago, 2-Dec-04, to lugnet.trains, FTX)

Here's a new British loco in 8mm:1ft scale. It is 50033 "Glorious" in memory of the real engine of that name being shut up in Swindon (UK) STEAM museum, fully serviceable but unable to run - what a shame! Still, you can go and see it without finding (...) (20 years ago, 1-Dec-04, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.announce.moc, lugnet.loc.uk, FTX) !

(...) I think you are probably right, especially with regards to track. I f you start off with new dark grey track you can buy it all cheap from those AFOLs with large collections who hate it!. Plus it should (hopefully) be avaialble new for a a (...) (20 years ago, 2-Dec-04, to lugnet.trains, FTX)

(...) Precious Princess Palace on bricklink had a slew of them all for $80 so they are still around. Good to know about the gray. Luckily my dark ages pretty much started in the early/mid 90's so I missed most of the color additions and when I did (...) (20 years ago, 2-Dec-04, to lugnet.trains, FTX)

Doug, You are right! I couldn't find 65537 listed at BrickBros either. But it should also be pointed out that this is a hard set to try and locate anywhere on the internet. I did some searching for it on google, and most e-tailers selling LEGO don't (...) (20 years ago, 1-Dec-04, to lugnet.trains)
