    First Steamer - Russian L class —Timothy Gould
   Hi all, This is my first attempt at a steamer, a Russian (URL) class> locomotive. Not exactly sure how much of it will work but I borrowed liberally from Ben Beneke's work figuring he would have got it working. (2 URLs) BS Gallery> Please let me (...)

     (...) Meh. I think you should stop putting his stuff on the sidebar altogether. We all know he churns one out every month or so anyway.... (URL) Anyway, nice work. As I said in chat, your inspiration from Ben really shows. Legoswami (19 years ago, 26-Dec-05, to lugnet.trains, FTX)
   
        Re: First Steamer - Russian L class —John Neal
     (...) I really appreciate all of the fine MOCs and renders you've been producing, Tim! You are becoming a regular James Mathis. I can't imagine higher praise:-) (...) :-) (Nah, it goes without saying;-) JOHN (19 years ago, 26-Dec-05, to lugnet.trains, FTX)
    
         Re: First Steamer - Russian L class —Timothy Gould
     (...) Thanks very much John. I agree that is a great compliment. I'll post another brickbuilt one soon just to prove I own bricks. (...) I said improve it, not enlarge it! You do realise that those emails which appear uninvited in your inbox aren't (...) (19 years ago, 26-Dec-05, to lugnet.trains, FTX)

     (...) Nah! Inside every 6-wide is an 8-wide or bigger waiting to get out! :-) Does the Russian loco have the same wheel arrangement as my British 9F? (URL) Mark (19 years ago, 27-Dec-05, to lugnet.trains, FTX)

     (...) Hey, I saw that on BrickShelf yesterday. It looks just as good today. I'd like to see it in person. Chris (19 years ago, 27-Dec-05, to lugnet.trains)
   
        Re: First Steamer - Russian L class —Reinhard "Ben" Beneke
   (...) Dear Tim, you did an excellent job on your Russion L-Class! I enjoyed it a lot to surf through your gallery and compare that with the real stem engines you have linked. I would love to see that design done in real bricks. Concerning the wheel (...) (19 years ago, 28-Dec-05, to lugnet.trains)
   
        Re: First Steamer - Russian L class —Timothy Gould
   --SNIP-- Dear Ben, Thank you for your comments. As I mentioned in the first post, your models were quite a learning (thieving ;)) point for me. (...) I would love to see it made real too and was going to try it until I discovered that the wheels (...) (19 years ago, 28-Dec-05, to lugnet.trains)
   
        Re: First Steamer - Russian L class —Reinhard "Ben" Beneke
   (...) Dear Tim, thanks for your nice replay. And I agrre: the 7750 wheel sets are really a pain to get via Bricklink and all other market places. I own a few of them but never enough... And the price aims only at one direction: always up. (...) (...) (19 years ago, 28-Dec-05, to lugnet.trains)
   
        Re: First Steamer - Russian L class —Timothy Gould
   Dear Ben, (...) I fear that is the case :( Fortunately my interests lie mostly in diesels and electrics so my steam will remain virtual. (...) It is so obvious now that I know it's there. I will definitely add it in the updated version. I already (...) (19 years ago, 29-Dec-05, to lugnet.trains)
