Great work, Tom. I like the layout of your page-- very clean. And great
looking MOCs. You are too good for 6 wide (come to the dark side;)

I found the high noses on your EMDs interesting. Are you working from
specific pics? I wasn't aware of high nose versions in these make (when I see
high nose, I think GP-9).

I like the caboose, although your posts are way too thick. Even at 14 wide I
used flex tubing for mine-- would probably look okay at 6-8 wide too.

Nice variety. You are raising the bar, as Lar would say, for 6 widers-- 8
wide, too, for that matter:-)
