Enjoy!

Oh my, that is one fine looking locomotive & tender. Great job! I’d love to
see and hear it run - with all those gears it must make a great sound.

Yep it does make a nice sound, with the 2 motors whirring. I’ve actually just
yesterday re-built it using the un-geared motors, to see if I could get it
running close to the same speed as a train motor, and the reduction in volume is
amazing! But the un-geared motors don’t have enough ooomph when geared down to
run it, so I’ll probably switch them back.

Now, to build a couple flat cars hauling logs behind it, right? <grin>

Already on the drawing board ;) I figured it needs a motorised car of some kind
anyway, and a log car was the obvious choice.
