[quote]QUOTE: Originally posted by vsmith In large scale alot of stuff starts off looking like "toys" but by the time I'm done adding details, painting, and bashing, they are definetly "models". This engine started as a guady shiny plasticy inexpensive LGB TOYTRAIN line, I repainted, added details, a complete backhead and rusty weathering and now its a "model" of an early 8-ton Porter common to mining lines at the turn of the century, and yes, the cut levers really do work to uncouple the cars. One of the advantages of big trains, you can operate them just like the real ones.[:D] [img]http://1stclass.mylargescale.com/vsmith/Curly%202.jpg[/img] [/quote] Nice loco, vsmith ! I think of my trains as both, and I see no harm in saying that I play with trains !
