Feel free! Please let me know if you have any suggestions. It is somewhat
accurate depending on which real life prototype you look at. Rather than
model a prototype down to the T, I choose the design elements I really liked
from several and built on big engine. This is 6th (at least) version I have
done of this engine and really like it.

Thanks! I like this car because it shows how realistic you can make
something look with just a few parts, and a simple design.

Yeah, I looked all over when I built this about 6-8 months ago for other
people's boxcar designs. I wanted to create something new and unseen before.
When I didn't find anything, I assumed this was new. Until about two months
ago, I started noticing several people posting images to Brickshelf that
used this roof design. Teaches me to be slow in posting! :)
Thanks for the comments. Love to see pictures of you with your version of
the design if you make one! Go Photo-ware!
