Here is a Pic of Robert Coffee's ATSF 3771 Nothern which just went through a rebuild (New Boiler Casting on GS4 Mechanism).  Thought I would share it before I send if off in the mail.

WooHoo!!!! Glad that the control panel for the module is done, the "Queen" of my railroad is headed back home. Jason, the new boiler looks so good. Time for the roundhouse to proceed past the foundation stage. Stall track 1 is clear and waiting for 3771's arrival. Thank you again, my friend. Robert

Here is a pic of 3771 with her first boiler

And this is a pic of that layout before we had an unplanned move (the current module was "sawz-all-ed" out of that layout)

Very Santa Fe, nice work!
I like the contrast between the boiler and the running gear...

3771 is back on her home railroad....of course it is waiting for more sand. The new boiler casting is beautiful, previous casting was subjected to gross damage during the weight addition experiments. Great work Jason, thanks! Have the rest of the layout room covered with printouts of information to model of a ATSF Bakersfield/San Berdoo roundhouse .
