This model is a complete remodel of my quite recently completed BR01 . Once finished with the first iteration it never felt quite right. The proportions seemed way of and there was quite a lot of details I didn't get right. This time around it feels a lot better. It have gotten longer, taller and perhaps most notably; wider. The added width suits the rather wide proportions of the minifigures. It will also provide ampel space in the passenger car I've designed for this. Furthermore tests have been made on track and it seem to handle R104 without problem.
While i'm most pleased with the current state of the model suggestions and tips are always welcome. I try to read up on whatever it is i'm building but the steam locomotives have quite a lot going on with them so the chances are that i've overlooked at least one detail of importance.
...since i'm using #7750 stickers it seemed fitting to add in a modern retake on the original minifigures.
