[Joon Kwon]

wonderful work, David !
Especially, like the look of windows with shades.

[Siwi]

The 'swaging' bars along the sides give it that characteristic east European look. Grilles are very realistic too.

This is an incredible build, the trucks (bogies) are unreal. You never disappoint. I do have to ask though, why is there a steering wheel on a train?

Thanks Mike, Rifleman, Erik, Marcin and creosotewind. the steering wheel is the accselarater the two levers ether side are the gears so to speke by incresing or decrsing the eletrical resistans on the current going to the moters.
