hey! that's my stuff :)
You are correct, I originally posted the MR Trainmaster in December.
I just made the boxcars and the container car this weekend, the caboose had
been finished in December but not posted, because I wanted to wait until I
had the decals on it.
I used the old wooden style doors because I wanted something taller than the
traditional boxcar doors, and also because I was having a hard time getting
them in red.
what don't you like about the roof? I'm not overly-fond of it myself, but I
didn't want to just lay a bunch of low slopes.
later!
