Nice work! I like the Sawnee loco, nifty job on the dynamic brake pod; it somehow looks 'right' for a depiction of an EMD machine at that size. Definitely something for the files.

I don't recognize it (or either of the above, actually) from anywhere. It looks like the drivers might be aftermarket from someplace? Care to enlighten? I'm jealous, it makes me want to hunt down a machinist to have some wheels created from bar aluminum stock. (Ok, I'm slightly loco-centric, what gave it away??)

		Pictures from the NGLTC display at the Georgia LEGO Outlet store
Once again the NGLTC presented a display outside of the Georgia LEGO Outlet store. It was a perfect day for an outside show, and a great day for a crowd at the outlet mall. The layout was pretty much packed all day long with visitors, and wide eyed (...) (23 years ago, 30-May-01, to lugnet.announce, lugnet.trains, lugnet.trains.org, lugnet.general) !
