 | | F7 Diesel engine —Kim Toll

| | | I've just finished work on my new SOO F7 Diesel. Come on over and take a look. (URL) the link immediately below "What's New"... its listed as "SOO F7". Fairly straight forward. I'm trying to figure out if I have enough of the right pieces to build a (...) (24 years ago, 15-Nov-00, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.build)

| | | | | Hi Kim, many THANKS for sharing pictures of your latest train engine!! I also love these curved elements, I can't get enough of them! The "nose" is modeled very nicely! By the way I discovered the other parts of your LEGO webseite! Fantasic. The (...) (24 years ago, 15-Nov-00, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.build)

| | | | | Kim, I don't build trains, but that is a very nice looking model. Looks like you got a nice resemblance to the train you were basing it one. What really impresses me about this model is the ingenious way that you mounted those round windows. :-) (...) (24 years ago, 15-Nov-00, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.build)

|
| | | | | | Thanks for the kind words Andy. Yes, the mounting the portal windows and the rounded nose were the things that the rest of the model are based around. They were the driving design constraints in developing this model. All in all, I'm quite pleased (...) (24 years ago, 15-Nov-00, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.build)

| | | | | Very nice, Kim. The Soo is (was) a midwestern line, and so that and the Milwaukee Road are my favorite lines to model. I see you decided to model in purgatory scale (7 wide;) Actually, I've found that modeling in odd numbered studs is rather (...) (24 years ago, 15-Nov-00, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.build)

|
| | | | | | Thanks John. Coming from the champion of 8 wide, this means a lot to me. Yeah, I used lots of three long plates in this model! I needed an odd number of studs to get the nose right - the rounded headlight thing. This is the main reason I went to 7 (...) (24 years ago, 15-Nov-00, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.build)
