Was that what you needed?
Some of the images were not so clear, but I guess they were better than nothing!

By the way, I have the main body done including the oil filler hatch and water hatch, back-up light, and top walkway. graemlins/220.gif I just E-mailed back and forth with Rob,(The Man, Mr. Ztrack!!), about the 3-axle trucks and he's sending me a pair, for a small fee ! graemlins/222.gif I've bought the Goat emblem for the sides and a bunch of N-scale steam details that I've wittle'd down to scale. graemlins/220.gif

The Vandy' is pretty much done, still in white plastic though. :rolleyes: I'm just waitin' on the 3 axle trucks I bought from Rob at Z-Track Magazine. (hint, hint if your readin' this, Rob :D ) I did put the dual cross-compound air pumps on the front of the boiler on my Mikado, a little piping up the sides, and put a new headlight w/number boards a little lower than the center of the boiler door. I also shimmed the body up a little for a more realistic look. And I painted it with some high-temp barbeque paint I had! I still need some "Blacken-It" for the driver's and rod's though.
