Hi Samarth, I'm glad you've had a warm welcome already.
I have looked at your brickshelf pics many times as you have added stuff, at
first I thought you were English (because of the class 50 and Flying Scotsman.)
but then realised that you were Indian. I have to to say that I think your
models have been gettting better and better, the EMD is up there with those of
the best AFOLs, especially the cab front.
I thinks that it is good that you are modelling Indian trains, most people do
seem to model their local stuff but then most train builders seem to be
American, European, Austrialian or Japanese so it can get a bit samey.
I look foward to your new project

(who also plans a model of a Darjeeling Himalayan B class sometime in the
future)

| Lotsa snippy (...) Hi Tim,Funny, I thought you may have figured out that I was doing the same locomotives that are in the Microsoft Train Simulator ;-P (...) Wow, thanks! I've seen your MOCs too, and that tram reminds me of Toby from Thomas the tank (...) (20 years ago, 16-Nov-04, to lugnet.trains)
