They all look outstanding!

The windows as shown are intended to have custom decals made for them representing the original window design. The versions you suggested would possibly look a bit small and out of place. Thanks for the suggestion though.

Glad your happy with it! Looks great all built up.

Your custom connecting rods make a world of difference, thanks for providing this service to the Lego train community!

I have been working on this 6 wide 0-6-0 for quite some time to get everything to work out just right. The weight and balance on this was a bit tricky. Incorporating a motor into the locomotive while still maintaining the authentic look took some time as well. This uses a Sbrick and 9V battery adapter which is located inside the tender. This operates extremely well on standard R40 radius curves while pulling at least 9 pieces of rolling stock. 20190903_192643 by freezingvettes99, on Flickr 20190903_192651 by freezingvettes99, on Flickr 20190903_192743 by freezingvettes99, on Flickr 20190903_192756 by freezingvettes99, on Flickr 20190903_192732 by freezingvettes99, on Flickr

You are correct, also you would have to take a hobby razor blade and cut along the battery box and reciever, the mask doesn't take this into account. Fairly simple since the seperation line shows up slightly through the decal.

Nice work Andy!

We had offered this in six wide on Brick Train Depot without any type of instructions to add the Power Functions or one could simply add a 9V Train Motor. We had customers attempting to do it on their own with varied success so I decided to create the instructions and build it for myself to make sure it actually worked. I am extremely pleased with the result and wanted to share with all of you. We created a decal mask to cover the sides of the battery box and receiver. Access to turn it on is on the top by simply removing a portion of the dynamic brake section. This works with either the new Bluetooth or the older infared type of Power Functions setup. I built mine with the older type because that is what I had on hand at the time. Feedback is always welcome. The instructions and decals are currently available on our site if interested.

The older open type hold better, the change was due to safety concerns I believe. The older type are crazy expensive as well.
