Oh, cheers for that (I forgot that some of the words get jumbled up). I might actually be building this out of plastikard and electronics from a science classroom I go to at lunch. :roll:

Yeah well big kids would have used CAD to draw their "perfect loco" not Paint :sign5: :sign5:!! Anyway, my Brio set is way better than anyone's garden railway. End of.

Well with any luck, we might share a loco like this one day. just maybe not in the scale everyone else is thinking about, although it is still technicially speaking a garden railway! :D

if the scale you are thinking of uses a track gauge of 5 inches or 7 1/4 inches then I am thinking about it :D

Yeah alright, I don't have CAD yet. My Graphic communications teacher (Mr Tait) keeps forgetting. Anyways, it's a good sketch.

If you look at my one, you can see the batteries and the interior colour. My one is the best admit it. I might build this design with the techniques I gathered from Graphic Comm. :roll:
