Now here she is with a smaller sandbox and steam dome. I've yet to run the sandpipes as I've run out of material, No. 32 black stranded wire. They'll be added tomorrow.

Now if only I could fix that low slung cab....... stay tuned, you never know.
What do you think? Better? Worse? No difference? Who cares?
