Thanks for your words!

I agree moving connecting rods and pistons would be really great, but I think
even these static parts do a lot for the first impression. Of course a new
big wheel (with technic hole for moving pistons) would be the coolest new Lego
element I could imagine (and please let it have real spokes to look through!),
but at the moment the wheels I used are the best ones to be found.
For lots of other models even bigger ones would be very helpful, but the BR50
fits in fact perfect to the diameter of the 7750 wheels I used.

I only wish to see some new colour variants of existing parts (dark grey
wheel sets) and the quarter section of straigt track....

That has been built by two other Germans already: so I decided to do not the
third copy of model that has been built already. For some links see my posting
