The only change from Chris’ original design is the use of two more Minifig hands on the upper handrails. Chris said this is OK and he will probably make the change on his model.

This, along with Chris’ Prime Mover creation, have been a real joy to work with. I think we have a new star in Chris in the world of train design.

Let me know of any corrections, observations or objections.

As I mentioned before I was working on this already - but my MPD uses step-by-step instructions. So I’ll continue my project and borrow/steal from yours to save me the effort of placing the parts, and just organize it into steps and put it into one big MPD file. I’ll post the results in a couple days.
