Nice work.
Like the steam loco, John. Is the diesel supposed to be inspired by an 'F unit'?
'Is the diesel supposed to be inspired by an 'F unit'?'
Ish
I designed what was pleasing to me. I suspect that the F unit was inspired by the Glenthorne design. I cannot see the Americans coming up with it on their own! ;D
The steamer is a Rheidol/Matheran cross!
Very nice John.
The steamer would look very nice trundling up Glen Ogle.

Now then Ivan, you know I can't match that, despite my best efforts. ;D
Mind you, that would look a little out of place on Glen Ogles viaduct.
Very nice though it looks.
Kind regards,

Oh how freelancing is such fun when done well as these two clearly are; they demonstrate how much the art of freelancing depends on believability and the appearance of "fit for purpose"
