Cool, but you need a hat

[Leatherman]

It's the same colour as Dave's toy

[viper paul]

Thanks Joel, I do have an original OSHCOSH Engineers hat,but like a fool forgot it for my first run.

[Joelism]

Does look splendid, must have a fair bit of power too, thats a heavy train its haulin'

[ViperDave]

Nice

I have to ask though, and as spud says it must have quite a bit of chuf, but how does an engine that size get enough traction to get the train moving even, I'd have though it would just sit there spinning its wheels.

[Dr-Bob]

Nice work Paul........
ITS BLOODY HEAVY!!!!!!!!!!!!!! thats how.....
Saw it when it was just painted and it was heavy then...

Stunning Paul, how many hours to build?

[viper paul]

Probably 75 hours to build powered by 2 x 12 volt batteries, but 12 V drive to 4 motors, junked the car horns and fitted real Airhorns.

In the pics its pretty obvious it need windshield wipers front airhose and more grab irons but its getting there.

Did I mention its got a full sound system with an amp.

[viper paul]
