I scored enough points on this model to qualify as the scratchbuilt locomotive to use towards my Master Modeler Motive Power certificate. The other 2 locos submit today also qualify, so I am done with all my modeling certificates required now.
Was a pleasure being one of the judges on your Motive Power Certificate! Congratulations for a well done job on your engines. Now only one more category to go to reach your quest to become Master Model Railroader!
Congratulations Robert Glad to hear this gets you one step closer to proving to the NMRA what many of us already knew. You are with out a doubt a Master Modeler.
Congratulations Robert for getting the highest score at the NMRA contest in Grapevine, Texas. Winning the Gold Award is the highest recognition in any model railroad contest. You are the first Z scaler to prove to the modeling world that great looking models can be done in Z scale. Well done Robert!
Fantastic Robert! Now they know what we’ve always known about you around here. You got the Jedi master skills of model railroading!
Congratulations Rob!!! Well deserved for your many years of being a Z-scaler. This is yet another boost for Z!
