Looks good - coupla questions
[*]Where'd you get the cosmetic hangers and axle boxes from?[*]Are you going to shoot a video showing it in motion (hope so)? I'm planning to make some battery powered locos for the days I don't fancy cleaning the track so would be interested in your experiences.

Great stuff Mark, I wasn't sure about the brown at first but outside in the sunlight it seems to suite it quite well
