There is one little problem though - despite finding plenty of photos, I still don't have the exact dimensions of the lubricator, nor anything showing exactly how it's mounted onto the engine frame.

I'm hoping when this Beautiful Steam comes out, I'm hoping we won't have problems downloading it from steam. In case May I suggest? Maybe a little great idea for backup? In case we have issues again, I was thinking maybe Mrennie should make a backup download for this steam engine and his ATN. Just in case steam gives another problem when the sales comes in. Whadia think? !*don-know!*



AND DANG!!!!!! WHAT A PICTURE!!!!

I have to let Steam handle the distribution (downloads), because they control the activation codes.

Its kind of scary how close someone can get to the prototype without actually being right next to it.

This looks great. I'm glad to see that the first *BIG* Steam Engine I ever rode on is getting a proper treatment for Railworks.

Keep up the good work!

I'm going to lighten that smokebox front colour again. I've seen plenty of photos where it's much lighter, like this one, taken with the sun shining in a blue sky, which is when you get the most genuine colour:

Thanks, Mike. Now I have to go buy a bib to contain my foam.
