These are so tempting.
The only problem is the last two items I pre-ordered from these guys never materialized. I cancled the Sharks after waiting almost 3 years and a Reading steamer after a two plue year wait.

They do look nice.
I have no use for one...modeling modern.....But they sure do look nice.

The ANNA lines needs a set of them.

Why would you want an insect on your layout?
Bond was nearly killed by a tropical centipede in the novel Dr. No.
I thought it was going to be a tender instead...the Baldwin only gave me a bit of pause since I associate centipede tenders with ALCO.
