Huw,
The accolades are duely pouring over your "wagon repair shop", and I agree.
I can't say much more than has already been said. Bravo!
I might add one comment and construction technic, if anyone is interested:
I'm not sure if anyone has publicized how to build that round window in a
"fixed-to-studs" construction.
I built a similar window (6 wide) for my station project. I put a propeller
fan into it's (near) center. My construction obscurs the "window", but it was
meant to be "blocked" by the fan. I can imagine one could build around the
hole to keep the view clear.
I can offer detailed photos of my 6-wide circular window, if you like.
Anyone, just let me know, and I'll take some photos.
Just to close back on a better topic: Huw, awesome train building creation.
Thanks for posting!
later,
James Mathis
