I responded individually, but I want to thank you all for your positive comments.
By the way, I posted my e-mail to another group of which I am a member, and have received no comments. So... I think you "S" guys & gals are the TOPS!!! :-) Bob, Part of my motivation for publishing these topics on my web site is that, when I first starting looking around at S-scale items on the web two and a half years ago, I found it hard to find good quality pictures of items for sale. So many things aren't photographed and you have to kind of buy them "blind". I've included photos of all the detail parts I've added to the engine, precisely because of that. I wish manufacturers would put any/more/better photos of their products on their web sites. Hopefully my articles help a bit in the meantime. - Peter.
