Gordon,
Equal praises as what the other guys have just said.  Clean and exact scratchbuilding work...can't really ask for much more can we?

The big question though...whats the final parts tally? ??? ;D

I have always loved the ongoing tally you often commented on at the end of each section of your builds.  I have this vision of you placing rivets and counting out loud, getting side tracked, forgetting what number you were up to, and pulling the rivets off to start again..... ;D

Thanks guys for your comments.It was fun to do another  steam engine. Dan, around a 1000 parts on the boiler, 600 on the water tank. a 1000 other parts. That is about a total of 2600 parts.

I will start a new thread on my next project in a day or two. I will be doing another little 0-4-0 geared loco. Madera Sugar Pine Lumber Company # 1. I will start the thread with what info I have and what questions I have.
