Nice work Dirk. I had never given the loco a second look because of its toyish appearance, but may need to reconsider seeing what you’ve been able to do with it. I would offer yet another suggestion: I’d paint or blacken the driver faces to minimize the visual difference between the flanged and blind drivers.........
Very nice looking improvement over the stock engine! The startup is slow and smooth, really nice.Can I make a suggestion? When I look at it, the pilot wheels with the little holes in them jump outas not belonging. Is it hard to change the wheelset on the pilot truck?I am encouraged by this. I have one of those with some extra parts tucked away to do an NPor SP&S late 1800's 2-8-0 someday.
