Good photo Chris, There's something nice about catenery operated models... provides more for the eye to see and looks complicated and intriguing with operating pantographs and all.
Did you make the pilot yourself?
You sure picked on a RR type that sortof leaves you to your own endeavours as I think very few manufacturers cater for traction.
I admire your skills and courage of 'going it alone'.

WOW!

A real eye popper, Chris!

It's just a jump to the left
And then a step to the right
With your hands on your hips
You bring your knees in tight
======================
:D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D ROFL and again ROFL

Thanks guys, Glad you like it.

Great photo of a great model Chris! And you're sooo right about wanting to step into the picture. I'm thinking of changing the name of my layout room to "The Time Machine". Ain't this hobby great!!!!!

At 44, it's hard to believe I have to explain to my kids {7 and 2} what a trolley is. Baltimore had them when I was an infant, then went to trackless trolleys up to the mid-60s. Great shot...:thumb:
