Also, I forgot to mention (I just noticed something is wrong with this posting!)

I posted this:

As the cab interior backhead detail that I used! This is NOT right.....Thats what came with the model.....SO, I didn't like it, took it all apart, and rebuilt it....Into this:

Notice the bottom of the cab floor is plastic! For a reason, I have wires under it, that are to make the firebox glow red.....The plastic was an insulator to keep for having any electrical shorts.....CA glued to the brass plate that has al lthe brass details soldered to it!

I think, my second choice and what I made to fit the cab, looks MUCH better!
