Thanks for looking and the positive comments.
I have been working on this for a few years as the painting of the units takes a long time so it is a work in progress.

Sir you are to be commended, to say the least!
For a # of years I had the pleasure of working for a firm which mfg'd model railroads and can fully appreciate the amount of time and passion one must have to create something as absolutely beautiful as this.
A real piece of art in its own right! Bravo Gerry!
Thanks for sharing. cheers
