Hi all,
Shortly after I made my Mallard Teunis Davey contacted me asking if I wanted
to have a go at making a
NSW Class 38. I did and this is what came out. The train is based on a
modified version of the wheelset I used for the Mallard with only cosmetic
changes. Lots of thanks to Teuis for ideas and suggestions along the way.

Interesting; I didn’t know that John
Deere built locomotives, too. I built
this
Massey Ferguson loco myself a while ago, in case anybody missed it. (I am a
farmer’s son, as you may have surmised already)
I see that you have started to build in 7-wide now without feeling that you have
to come up with honor-saving excuses like
“I thought it was a wide gauge
train”. :) That’s just great. I consider 7wide to be the coolest train scale,
all things considered. It’s just that all of my MOCs have magically developed
into 8-wides despite being 7- or even 6-wides in their initial versions. So now
I’m sort of stuck in 8-wide (and I’m totally happy with that too).
The “Homer Simpson ‘doing
shady stuff’ head cap”-as-buffer idea is very cool, and the panels on the side
work great.
