| (...) It's another Tequila sunrise! No, wait, this is the first one! Wow, that's as impressive a MOC as it is brightly colored, Tony! You've captured the streamlined twenties look very well-- nice and clean, and well-rounded. It looks fast just (...) (17 years ago, 17-May-07, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.general, FTX)

|
| I know that people have come up with some creative truck/bogie designs for their rolling stock. So maybe we could collect a bunch of them so that builders could choose from a variety of designs. I thought of this because I was considering updating (...) (17 years ago, 17-May-07, to lugnet.trains)

| (...) I like this idea - it adds a nice bit of realism to modern train consists! Too bad Lego lighting wasn't smaller, but for what you had to work with, vool job for sure! And I just saw a History Channel show on trains and they said that trainmen (...) (17 years ago, 17-May-07, to lugnet.trains, FTX)

| (...) Thanks! I love Flickr, it's really helped the building process when it comes to things like these. There aren't too many shopes that carry the 4x4 dome piece I used around, but they are there. (URL) Thanks for the reply! --Tony (17 years ago, 17-May-07, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.general)

I had some reservations with the color scheme, but it was different so I went (...) (17 years ago, 17-May-07, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.general, FTX)

This locomotive was a fun build, but a real pain to photograph given (...) (17 years ago, 17-May-07, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.general, FTX)

| Nicely done Tony. I snuck in a few peeks on the Flickr page last week, and saw that it was really coming together. Turned out great. The cow-catcher came out very well using that method. I'm still dabbling with my Hudson streamline concepts... I (...) (17 years ago, 16-May-07, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.general, FTX)

Also the colour scheme is ok, it reminds a little bit of a comic style. (...) (17 years ago, 16-May-07, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.general, FTX)
