Excellent work, Joel!  You did terrific for a 100th attempt, much less your
first!

thank you, I set out to build an SD 40-20, but after I saw this engine, I
knew I had to try it.  Its kinda different and I hadn't recalled seeing one
done before.

My only suggestion would be to revisit the height of the black in relation to

You are right about that, I'm going to see what I can do.  Although I fear I
am at the mercy of Lego.  To level the colors, I am going to need some
shapes that haven't been made in orange yet...

Keep on modeling the Milwaukee Road! :-)

I am planning on mostly doing SOO line stuff, as it has a better connection
to my childhood memories of watching trains go by, but I really like the
colors of the MR, so I'll definately make some matching rolling stock for
this Diesel.  I just haven't thought about what type yet.

cheers!
