My latest train project is up on Brickshelf:

http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=30085

It is build after the 4-6-4 hudson shrouded steam engine ÿellowbelly". Only
4 have been made, but never went into service. The model is build in 8 wide,

smoother. Anyway, let me know wht you think.
