Harry Potter Hogwarts Express - John & Ross Neal
http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?i=2592107
John and Ross have such a great feel for proportions and details. The
puffers an running gear are amazing to see in action. And the lead trucks
don’t turn; they just swing out over the curves. Note the use of a single
strip of black tape on the tender to provide the yellow/black/yellow
striping. The front of the boiler is just a tad out of alignment as this lok
was involved in a bad accident at the show that took out several trains and
part of the enginehouse. But with several expert train AFOLs on hand all
were rebuilt in minutes.
The Polar Express 1225 - John & Ross Neal

Another of John and Ross’s gems. The running gear details are so intricate.
It features plenty of hoses and three train motors for plenty of traction.
The passenger cars just out of shot are equally amazing.

Thanks for the compliments, Brian, but I just want to make clear that, short
of bank-rolling these MOCs, I can take no credit for their design or
creation!
I merely bask in the glow:-)

John,
Nice Hogwarts! You need a dash duster, or were you going for the “weathered”
look? I’ve found that in Wal-Mart/Target, in the automotive section, there are
“dash dusters”, that are used for..well, dusting your dashboard. I’ve found
that those brushes make great MOC dusting tools...
