East Broad Top 16, recreated as a somewhat 1:48 scale Lego model.
Made to run on 3 stud gauge Lego track, like its real life counterpart. Engine & Tender come out to 1,440 pieces and I’m using one Power functions L motor for power.
Really, really happy with the turnout.

Happy Halloween all.
Forgot I had this sneak peak I’ve been sharing around lately.
Won’t be too much longer until it’s fully done. Balancing wanting to work on it nonstop with college is tough but I’m working through it.

I'm already seeing centrists and leftists sniping at each other but the blame for this is 100% on the Republicans. This is what they do with power and it is imperative that we work together to keep them as far from it as possible, forever.

What’s y’all’s most infuriating could-have-been preservation story for locomotives? Mine would definitely be the Baltimore & Ohio’s EM-1 Yellowstones
1 was set aside for preservation, sent to the breaker’s by an idiot
1 was offered to a West Virginian city; they ended up rejecting it

"Fake it till you make it" was terrible advice to spread, because now we live in a world of powerful "Fakes who made it" and we're suffering from the consequences.

Lately this engine has become the sole thing I’ve researched in all my spare time
It’s such a fascinating failure of a prototype

Just my luck that the soundtrack CD for this movie of all movies (which the ost is really good btw) is abhorrently expensive online
Anyways I bought a copy for 63 bucks, but it’s ok bc
1) I already made the money back so it’s like it never happened 👌
2) it usually goes for around/above 100 bucks

On this day in 1992 "All At Sea" premiered
This marked the first episode wrote by Britt Alcroft and David Mitton that wasn't an adaptation from the RWS or magazines. As well as the first episode where Thomas' bunker didn't have the red lining
Happy 33rd anniversary!

Sadly don’t have any motivation to start or resume anything new, but tonight I got a huge boost to rework some parts of 1118. As it stands I love about 80% of it. The firebox, cab size and trailing truck all bother me; all three will be changed.
As well as other details here and there
