Hi All, Well as we get to within 4 weeks of BrickFest the building frenzy begins. As usual we will have a train layout (with some room for train MOCs) and a separate area for Train and Town MOCs if we have an over flow (which is a good thing!). It (...)

Nice model, I think you have captured the 'fatness' of the prototype well, especially considering it is six wide. (19 years ago, 15-Jul-05, to lugnet.trains, FTX)

(...) For the most part, simply 1x1 black plates. I used black plates to bind the walls for strength, and then "greeblied" them in order for the load to look random. The secret is to turn the 1x1s at various angles so that the eye doesn't pick up (...) (19 years ago, 14-Jul-05, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.trains.org, FTX)

(...) Hi Thomas, Saw this the other day and was most impressed. It really looks like the real thing. You should make a little (as in scaled to six-wide train size) car to go with it. Thanks for posting the .mpd too. I may 'liberate' some design (...) (19 years ago, 14-Jul-05, to lugnet.trains)

I built this loco right after the BNSF set came out, but never got around to taking pics of it. Better late than never... It took the equivalent of around 15 sets to get all of the necessary dark green tiles and 1x1 slopes to make this, and BL (...) (19 years ago, 14-Jul-05, to lugnet.announce.moc, lugnet.trains, FTX) !
