After putting the saw away I started to rebuild
I added the stack, headlight, brass grabs on the cab.
I also filled in the window frames in the cab front. The gaps were made when I dropped the boiler. I made an air line from the compressor while I was at it.
When I glued the roof on I made a small structure in the rear to cover the molded framework underneath.
Finally I made some view blocks for the tender and boiler areas. The interior of the cab won't be very visible, but I also didn't want light to be shining through.
Next is the primer paint, then I start work on the aged wood areas.
