Thanks for the compliment, James. It means a lot. I have been commenting
on your MOC's for two years so it's about time I can show you some of mine!!
I know I don't have a prayer to top your European train designs so I had
to one up your Amtrak F-unit with mine in the American realm! :^) I'm
hoping since you're from the West that my train will inspire you to try out
the golden era of American passenger rail travel. You know...UP, Santa Fe,
Southern Pacific, etc...
Ben B. and yourself have been very helpful and curtious with your emails
in the past and I thank you.
So I fooled you with my decals, eh? Yeah, I wanted the hound dog eyes
for the f-7 unit but still wanted the lego appearance so I just put three
yellow stickers on a standard clear six wide windsheild to give it flavor.
The forward lights are just a yellow round lego unit with a round black
paper button in the middle with an addition two silver buttons made by hole
punching two silver star stickers. You know, the ones we used to get on our
A+ papers in grade school? I hope that answers your questions. I hope to
get better pictures of these MOC's up someday if I ever get a website of my own.
Later,
John Warren
