Nice pin stripping lightningtiger.

Looks great!

I like the decal on the front of the nose.

Are you gonna do the lower chevron and the pin stripping around the windows or has the process of it tortured you enough?

Yes, alright....I'll do the lower chevron, etc., it's not that hard, but I bit of a pain.

Thanks 'vgsprites' for the feedback.

Updating real soon !

Wow you've out done yourself lightning tiger. The added details look marvelous!

Cannot wait to see this train pulling full loads at the train show.

Based on the time stamps that was quick. Great speed!

Finally complete LightningTiger!

I love the red suit and the yellow decals, have you already thought about any rolling stock or is this a maneuver locomotive?

Brick on!

Looks great with the decals.

Thanks 'vgsprites', 'LEGO Trains 12 Volts' and 'henryhotspurs' for your great comments.

This engine - as long as it has enough guts will shunt a friends model of this......

And it's longer than the Emerald Night !

I'll be uploading shots of the 520 when I have it on tracks (and sadly no, it's not powered....hence my train acting as a shunter - fingers crossed)

K.O.B. everyone !

Great to see it done LT and the pin stripping is really nice. Are you going to use power functions?

[lightningtiger]

Thanks 'Fuzzy' for the comments, sadly I don't have any PF only a RC train motor installed.

I need to do another load test tomorrow to see how this engine pulls a load.

K.O.B. everyone !
