Looking good - you're a quick worker! Too cold to work in my shed here but you have inspired me to do some work on mine - just a case of getting round to it!

Morning (or afternoon) to you too! The telly sends me to sleep, then I wake up to go to bed! Had a cup of tea about 3.30am. To think I could (once) sleep for 8 hours continuous!
 
I love your boxcab Mardy, might look into doing something similar sometime but with a pantograph on the roof like a short VR E class. I found with my little big hauler that once you solder the motor contacts back on the top of it it runs fine on track power. Bachmann really have no excuse for the chip sitting disconnected at the bottom of the box!
 
She is a little 'beaut'........sits on a Piko Taurus 0-4-0 motor unit....fairly tight fit....see screw on front platform gives you idea of length.....goes with 3 blue open sight-seeing cars........the kids call it 'Pa's telephone train'................nice to hear from you, Regards, Mardy.
