Mr. Burger,

I can't quite make it out but that lead wheel looks modified? Did you knock the
studs off? You haven't been working with Mr. Hendrix on this:)

Anyhow it looks nice, I would like to see more images of the trucks at work...

yes the lead wheel truck has the studs cut off.
the middle wheel set has the flanges removed as well to allow the truck to
manuver thru turns. i wanted to have the wheels off but it didnt look quite
right

it has been tested prior to making the whole thing, i had some spare grey train
wheels lying around so i had to murder them
