(...) The NW2 is sweet. Lots of nice details. As for the Fairbanks Morse I'm looking forward to it. The FM switchers are some of my favorite diesel locomotives. Here is my humble attempt at an H10-44 in Frisco colors. (URL) Cale (18 years ago, 11-Nov-06, to lugnet.trains, FTX)

(...) Thanks Chris, I'll be heading back to the build table tonight to start my next engine, either a the C420 or one of my favorites, an FM H10-44 (of which the Monon only had one unit). -Jeramy (18 years ago, 10-Nov-06, to lugnet.trains, FTX)

James, Yes, I'm quite excited about this box. And it fits in quite well with how I build. I'm not a great "from scratch" builder. So I scan the galleries, find something I like, generate part lists, then shakedown BrickLink for parts. So I'm looking (...) (18 years ago, 8-Nov-06, to lugnet.trains)

Holger - thanks for sharing the image. It really shows off what you can do with UTB. I'm glad the decision makers chose to go with red/blue/gray. I assume the fronts on the middle section are SNOT fronts and not the single piece train front (red) (...) (18 years ago, 8-Nov-06, to lugnet.trains)
