Hi John,
WOW! As a newbie of sorts my first jaw-dropping response to a LEGO train
was seeing Ross's Pacific 4-6-2. A while back you hinted that Ross had a
proto freight deisel in the works and I've been periodically returning to
Ross's Brickshelf folder ever since waiting for it to appear. It may not
mean much coming from a newbie, but I think this MOC is fantastic!
Are those mini-fig hands on the guard rails? I've never noticed that done
before. What are the fans made out of? A lot of great details!
Although I haven't made any detailed MOCs of my own (yet), for a while I've
been thinking I'm probably going to be a 6-wide guy (don't hate me! :-).
Ross's GP-50 has given me reason to reconsider 8-wide.
Tell Ross he's got amazing talent (if just a newbie opinion means anything)
and thanks for the great pictures!
-Paul
