    Hate pushing the like button on 3 year old posts, but when the work is top notch.....

      Why? If its good it gets a 'like' - regardless of age. Personally, I appreciate receiving 'likes' on old posts. :)

      Same here SHMD, it shows an appreciation of all modelling know matter how long ago, remember there are always new members coming onboard so hopefully they will be pushing the buttons as well.

      Yup - I've always liked Brush Type 4s.

       

      Same goes for D1000 "Westerns" - Class 37s - and "heritage" DMUs, for that matter - they're what was around here when I was in school.

       

      Nothing wrong with steam - just the fact that for those of us below the age of 50 (not much below, in my case), steam has always been the stuff museums are made of.
