Quote

E D Worley, writing in 1965 of the effect of this update, (p. 252) offers an analogy redolent of the locomotives: "As it was, they started out life as real plain Janes. They rolled out their final miles in raiment and appearance as well equipped as Bridgette [sic] Bardot or Jayne Mansfield -- truly a startling transformation."

I think these are the best North American Pacifics ever designed (at least after the rebuild). Mercifully, a number of them survive, including one in (agonizingly slow) retirement in Abilene, KS.

Another excellent steamer, great job

Impressive. I like how you went for the extendable stack in the deployed position instead of the hinged down position. Great work!

Nice part usage of the aircraft hull part as the cab roof. Lots of great detail, as always!

Thanks. I couldn't get the angle on the roof right any other way.
