    Larry,

    Thanks! I have been to your site more than once, good stuff. If I had your skills I would be starting with blocks of metal instead of Marklin chassis.

    The Z heads are working on a 0-6-0 and I like your 6x15 with a flywheel as wide as the cab.

    Amazing, the 3D effect is so real, no one would believe it is made of PE parts... I would vote this as the model of the year too.

    She's a beauty. What can I say that hasn't already been said?
    Congratulations Chris. Now you know that you'll have to wait until next year to do the 2-10-2 or you will competing against yourself for Model of the Year.

    One more vote for this amazing creation.
    This stays some manufacturers pale.
