Just one of MANY lego exhibit photos- Henry Ford's Model T factory...(only problem is, you could get a Model T in any color you wanted, as long as it was Black )
Many pics of this Steam Locomotive too...The whole museum was built AROUND this train 1:1 Scale Bumblebee was pretty sweet to see in the lobby.

Hey, Dave, I bought a bottle of the Plastruct stuff. Have you had any problems with it? Like getting it to adhere before it evaporates?
I put the pieces together and then glue them but it is like it just poofs off the end of the brush.....

I use it all the time, you need to coat both surfaces and place them together quickly, or put it on thick, and clean up the spooge before it dries. You'll get in the habit of dropping the brush back in the bottle to be quick...just don't get in the habit of forgetting and leaving it open...it gets thick and gakky if it dries out.

The plastruct stuff, is very thin, so it is a bit of a learning curve, especially when you are like me, and prefer the thickness of old-skool testors You'll get it in no time.

Getting the perfect amount of glue on a mini is a bitch, but oh so satisfying when you get it Juuust right.
It is especially a bitch when that mini is a scratch because the PC is way more reactive than standard mini plastic.
Dave, I just noticed the WHFB Giant up there. I love that model, too. I used to have one but gave it to a buddy to put in his army. It had been given to me so I figured it fair...
IIRC that model comes with one of those skeleton filled cages?

That was the first model T they're building Dave. They realised skull white had crap coverage so they switched to black for the rest
Loco's look sweet, both the real and the lego.
I almost always go the capillary action route when using plasticweld. And I've always found the main reason to ensure the rop's gone back on is that otherwise you find yourself living in solvent fumes for a day or two, wondering why you're not feeling so good. Never had it thicken up on me though.
Yeah, digging the Lego Diesal. I need to add a few Lego Trains to my collection. trying to get the early 90's Metro passenger train on Ebay is a nightmare.....

If you have the set#- I can get you the instructions for it...that along with special parts from bricklink would probably be much cheaper than trying to get the original set.

I have looked at Bricking it myself too. I think it may be an option as I really want to build the city table I have been planning for so many years. I have an old shipyard set too that I want to incorporate but need to replace parts for....
It is set #7938.
I also want that train you just got. The Maersk. It is wicked. and this one too:

Oh man...you can still get 7938!
http://search2.lego.com/?q=7938&lang=2057&cc=US 4558 would be hard to DIY, that set has a LOT of rare parts, if not exclusive to it. Besides, 4558 was the old electric, and 2 generations of r/c since then.
7898 is the 1st gen R/C
