Awesome MOC’s from you and Ben. Very inspiring. Since posting the first
message, another steam engine I found in brickshelf that I really like is Tim
Gould’s “NSW Class 38 Streamlined”. Naturally, a lot of great brick-work
there. http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=173784
I really like the aesthetics of his solution to the piston/pony-truck and
motor placement. It also really drives home the aestehtics of the drive
wheels, and making my modle into a true 4-6-4. In my LDD design, the chassis
is what is really holding it back. When redesigning to use Ben’s wheels,
this should open it up for more piston/pony-truck options.

Hi Ted,
Just a quick word of warning... I’ve never tested this one in real life so
there’s not guarantee the solution I have there works. It seemed to work out in
CAD but real life is the ultimate decider.
