Gus,
Nice job on that old Mantua/TYCO! The different tender does wonders on those steamers!

I have yet to add the bell! (I was not happy with the crude detail they had on them factory), so I changed ALOT of the details I had to make the whole locomotive, look even better!
Then I have the following finished model pictures of it!
