Thanks Jeff.As usual snafu, measure twice, cut once, only have 9 1/2" from last bumper to end of track. Maybe if wheel base is shorter it might fit.

Bob, I just checked for you and bumper to bumper is just shy of 10" if you have 9 1/2" left you should be fine, you'll just have a little overhang.

Nice job with the worn metallic surfaces on the wheels. Which color scheme are you going to use?

Looks great, I take it the germans used diesel locomotives to move freight around to limit the amount of smoke displaced by the steam locomotives.... Not familar at all with this so I will be watching the build for information on the diesel locomotive type.

Hey Michael, basicly yes. This loco unit was a small guage loco used by the French and Germans as a spotter to move cars around in the yards and local hauling. The desil exhaust is almost invisable except when started in cold weather.
