rbrown7713 Posted July 29, 2020 Author Share Posted July 29, 2020 The overall shapes are good, but there is no comparison as to the detail. The FAM T1 has almost every detail as the prototype. One thing I am going to add, now that I have an exact model to copy, is to add the handrails that are on the sides and front. I probably won't add any more detail than that, no time. I am going to try the sounds and power that exists in it now because I don't really want to take the engine apart, looks like too much work. If it doesn't operate satisfactorily, than I will have to.

rbrown7713 Posted August 28, 2020 Author Share Posted August 28, 2020 Thanks Joe. I didn't ever think that I would be making miniature roses for a diner car. I have always said that I liked a challenge, but this is almost too difficult for me, but I will trudge along. Bob. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
enginear joe Posted August 29, 2020 Share Posted August 29, 2020 I'm putting decals on my build and noticed there's no front cab door! I tried to rush things along. See what I missed? Roses for the table? I forgot the whole table! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
