That was build #1 for me, followed by #514 more over the years.

As a first build it was difficult and a learning experience.

Yours turned out really nice.

I have often thought I would like to do it scratch in O scale.

It really is iconic.

Love the "high country" look, even if it is perhaps a fantasy design.

I think it would be terrific in O scale.

I cant wait to get it worked into the layout,

but I really have to get more trackwork done before that happens...

Hey, what works, works.

And the whole effort looks to have worked successfully.

This project looks like a scratchbuild,

right out of a 1970s or 1980s Railroad Model Craftsman magazine.
