Wayne asked me how I was dealing with the cab sagging. Here's are a few pictures.
The cab is actually screwed on the boiler. The front location of the screw is partially responsible for this because it induces a stress in the plastic tab glued on the boiler. The solution was to glue styrene blocks inside the cab, near the back, to keep it aligned with the floor. It works fine. I also added an engineer and a fireman.
