Nice model, seem to have missed this one. I either have a bad memory or was put off by the word Lima.

 

I have a couple of Keyser 44xx ?, the smaller ones anyway and the Lima wheels and motion look better than the K's and I guess the motor is also. But I have to admit I am a bit of a weight snob, it may be because I had Hornby Dublo 3 rail metal locos as a youngster but to me (and this goes for etched locos as well) as the real thing is very heavy our models should be as well. Both etched and modern plastic stock leave the whitemetal locos standing as far as detail goes, but lack the 4th modelling dimension which is weight.

 

Still that's off topic, yet again a great bit of modelling
