Fight nice children, or I will take away your trains. I'm the one with the pathetic RR anyway.

 Very sharp looking locos Sean. Great painting job to be sure.

I prefer locos looking pristine than uncared for and seemingly resembling junk.   Laugh

 Hi Sean,

Great pics, thanks for posting more of them.  You have the ability to create fine weathering; not an easy thing to achieve.  I just don't have the bottle to do it to my locos.  Wink
