Is this something I can follow a build thread or blog on, even if it takes 5 years? I'm very interested in building a chassis for a steam loco my self and have no idea how to do it.

finally added a flag...searched the internet for some clipart, sized and mirrored the image, then printed it onto regular copy paper...I glued he images back-to-back with Elmers Glue, then affixed to a piano wire 'pole'.

Looks fantastic. Are you planning to put any old stuff around the store like a rusty car, pallets, bins and such?

Stripped the Seaboard off and started relettering the 2-10-2 my wife bought for me for Christmas.

Thanks to whoever posted about the Trainworld sale. Though not a New Haven L1 it is close enough for me and these run really well, and will pull a whole bunch of cars.
