This is stunning! I love 4-4-0 American Standard locos! Is this a kit in development ( I hope, I hope!) Do you know the scale?
What is the name of the website?

Thanks for the working link, Doug! I can't make out whether this is a professional job or not, or what scale it might be. It appears to be a model of Central Pacific's Jupiter, unless I misunderstand. Should be a spectacular and colorful model.Wonderful, I wish I spoke the language to find out more.

For those unfamiliar with the loco, here's what the facsimile reconstruction of CPRR #60 looks like today;

Not an easy thing to model in paper. Lots of shiny surfaces, brass and Russian blue steel boiler, etc. I'm curious to see what the designer comes up with!

Thanks, Zoli. At 1/25 I might be able to make it operable on G-gauge track. Cool.
