3406 is still on the workbench. Should be good to go in time. Runs nice on the test track.

Brickfair NE D-24
While it's starting to look quite nice, it has some disappointing structural flaws. The cab sags and this is probably my explodiest design to date, even after I spent the morning rebuilding the boiler. It will probably need a complete redesign of the boiler after the Bartlett show in June. Also 24 days to show, this isn't finished, 3406 (my primary freight) is half-built, and I still have some layout modules to attend to. For those just tuning in: Canadian National #5288, J-7-b class pacific. Frequently ran cross-border trains on the CV and GT-NE. Now lives at the Tenessee Valley RR Museum.
