| Bryan, That's a good-looking unit, there. I didn't even know turbines were out there in diesels. Can you give me a website where I can learn a little about them? Thanks, Les | | | |

Since I have to live with 5 ft radius curves my second impression was huge! - My first impression was of course, very nice work. Are the railings on top brass, or how did you make them. Was there a previous thread describing the build?
