(...) Very slick Bob. You've got the curved shape down very well. I was looking at this model this morning on BS and thinking it was nice. I'm curious as to why you did the front grille in grey instead of black or dark grey though. Tim (19 years ago, 23-Feb-06, to lugnet.trains)

(...) This was bugging me as well, so I tried a few things in TrackDraw and came up with this: (URL) 8 straights, 20 curves, one left and one right point. It *nearly* works.

Hi Mark, (...) I don't but CAD does. I figure those parts are appearing everywhere now so it's only a matter of time before Brickilink reflects their true value. (...) Carriages look good although I don't like the gears too much. Have you thought (...) (19 years ago, 22-Feb-06, to lugnet.trains, FTX)

(...) Is that just super-affluence of red curved slopes or was the carriage affected by a passing dementor? :-) Anyway, to compare notes, here's a link to my 8mm scale Hogwarts Express, a scale model of the Hall class engine (5972 Olton Hall) used (...)
