Here she is, finally complete in all her cheese slope-y, SNOTty, 7-wide glory. I must say I’m very please with how she turned out. She’s fully track compatible and uses the split-pony truck design I’ve used before. The folks that run the real #425 use an auxiliary tender nearly identical to the primary one as a canteen, so I figured might as well build that one, too.

A big thank you to Ben and his fabulous Blue Big Ben Brick Steam Engine Wheels, for without them I never would have attempted to build her.

As with other trains of yours, this one transcends the line between train and work of art. I just think it’s great! Models like this one are a clear reminder of why the LEGO Train hobby is so great! (as are BBB wheels) Very nice work!

Wow, thanks much! I don’t think I’m deserving of such high praise, but I appreciate it. I’d have never gotten into the train hobby had it not been for Ben and his BBB Wheels.
