(...) ?? Well, maybe not NEW, but there is a LOT of SNOT in this model. Consider the grillwork on the nose. That's done with two tailgates, one right side up, one upside down. Consider the cab windows. These are boat bridge windows, upside down. So (...) (24 years ago, 16-Nov-00, to lugnet.trains)

I don't want to say "I told you so", but...;-) (...) Hey Bram, why don't you create some really cool locos and cars in ldraw?? I mean, for me, a ldraw MOC rendered in POV Ray is cooler than digital pics of actual MOCs any day!! An MOC is only cooler (...) (24 years ago, 16-Nov-00, to lugnet.trains)
