Hi.. Been working on Dragon's Elefant the last week or so and am just wondering where the exhausts for the two motors came out at. Never have seen any reference to these in books, and never have seen any models, that I can remember, that were 'stained' with oils or pastels to represent the exhausts. I figure they came out of the top plate there someplace in front of the superstructure, if I were to guess, as I've never seen any openings on the sides or rear for them. Could be I've just over-looked the obvious, which I've been known to do, esp. as I get older. Just curious.

Thanks and take care, sgirty

Hi there
If what i have been told is correct the exhausts come out under the track guards somewhere in the region of the 4th or 5th roadwheel on each side,hence the damage to these wheels seen in some pics.
