This afternoon, Steve Doyle, Jim Brown and I got together to start work on our
H10-44's from Smoky Mountain, OK so we were impressed but here are some
questions.
1. The cab end of the model is so open, has anyone done anything with the
interior? It sure seems like a great idea. If not, I am going up to Duluth to
get some shots of the interior in the H12-44 up there and do more thinking.
2. The unit has soooooooo much space for DCC and sound, where are folks
installing it? Opportunities I can see are under the floor in the cab (The
floor which is part of the interior from question 1. Or using the Railmaster
Bass Reflex speaker, have the speaker sound come out of the radiator screen on
top and the bass port sound out of the stacks. No matter how this sounded the
concept is just plain exciting.
3. The body casting is beautiful, I spent 2 careful hours taking off detail
that was not on the engine I am modeling,now I have to add some louvers. Is
there a louver detail add on similar to the rivets that you can buy?
3. Steve brought over his Imagine That, Industrial Building, WOW! this is an
amazing kit or for me as I am using more of a flat concept it is about 8 feet
of scenic beauty. I am mocking up my industrial area with Steve's parts until
I get the flat pieces I need. He also brought in a hotel kit, the dang thing
included every floor, the industrial building had the floors, interior posts
and supports. Serious stuff, I wonder where Steve will get enough furniture
for all the rooms in the hotel? I know he has some "figures" to use in one of
the rooms......
Well that is it for now, thanks in advance for any ideas. Enjoy the blessings
of the holidays, if you are like me, Santa does not bring any S Scale, but the
model train fairy seems to make enough trips to the basement that I am never in
short supply of projects.
