Roundhouse 0-6-0 vs DCC/Sound
#50
Christmas vacations start today and I worked a few hours on completing the boiler detailling.

I added the builder plates and air strainer, scratchbuilt a numberboard and washouts, installed the headlight bracket and marker lights. Injector, pipes and handrails were done too. I also added rivets on the cab to look more prototypical. All that said, the only remaining work is to build the air pipes spiraling under the running boards, add brake cylinders and various little details on the cylinders... I'm not looking forward making the air pipes, hope I'll find an easy way to make them without getting nut with an soldering iron!

Once all that done, final rewiring will proceed, followed by paint and decals (the best part of the job IMHO!).
