Hi all,
           Well I started this project 8 years ago, just to see if I could do one.  A Dcc Loksound all wheel pickup with lights, peeling paint, 9 member crew w/dog & all the tools I could stuff in.  Thank you to George Sellios for supplying all tool details.

It runs good and looks like crap! ha.  So what say you?  Thanx Thom... P.S. I have 3 more different types-which means I may finish them by the time I'm 90. ha.

Thom,
What say I? I say it is absolutely fantastic. Very befitting of and for the F&SM.


All thumbs up here.

That's great Thom. I remember you showing me that little gem in it's pristine, unpainted, un-detailed state...you've really made a mess of it! It'll fit right in on the F&SM ;D

Thanks everyone for the wonderful comments! Here a quick pic of the railbus on the F&SM.  It's lunch time and all the local crews are stopping at the new Chateau Diner for lunch.  I hear the Bostonian Burgers are the best!   Thanx Thom...
