No suggestions come to mind, but that lamp is a nice touch.

That looks great, I'm very impressed!

Re suggestions for the next one, if you're working with a novo chassis that would suggest stocky and four-coupled - how about something along the lines of the Corris Falcon locos? Or a shortened, 4 wheel version of Statfold's Harrogate Gas Works Peckett?

Looks great, would love to see a video of it running! I was impressed with the loco remote system as well, but agree a dedicated handset is preferable
