I have posted a few pictures on Brickshelf.com of the Beyer-Garrett that I
have been building. It is still in Design Development, there are a few things

Thanks,
Stacy

| Looks like you beat me to it. But its great to finally see one. Great work! We have been talking about these for a couple years in PNLTC but no one has tried it to date. I just started working on one since G2K but haven't posted yet. My biggest (...) (24 years ago, 19-Sep-00, to lugnet.trains)
