This model was built in one day as part of a challenge with another AFOL who
didn’t fulfil there side of the bargain. Please make any suggestions or
criticisms you like as I would like to improve it.

Interesting. The prototype seems rather squat (much wider proportionally than
your model), can you try to lower the height of this model at all to achieve
that look?
I like the front pilot/buffers area.

Hi Lar,
Thanks for the comments.
It’s a wide, wide-gauge train but I just couldn’t bring myself to go to seven
wide even though the model REALLY needs it. I might be able to squeeze one plate
lower (need to check on a brickbuilt version) but unfortunately any lower than
that and my minifigs will fall off the sides. I might try to force myself to
widen it but it is hard for me to do.

| (...) Seriously-- why would that be "hard to do"? Aversion to creating wide trains is baffling to me. This MOC could easily be built 9 wide, going by the looks of the prototype, and it would look great at that width! Forget about conventions, Tim. (...)
