the Flash Speeder.

Don't be shy, let me have it! All criticism, critiques and
comments are welcome.

My 3-1/2-year-old daughter collaborated, and I think it came out pretty good.
(The helmet for the engineer was her idea, and the way she drives the train, I

Hopefully I'll be able to pick up another Railway Express set or two on
clearance at Target, just for parts. I'd like to build some larger road
switcher-type locomotives at some point.

Thanks for looking!

Henry
