Ngauger's 2013 Duff Challenge

[ngauger]

OK- This is it!!!!! I'm-a Done!! Finished even! First - My inspiration:

   

And - Where I am now....
Brass door handle & step
   

Showing the back with the guard chain and another wooden engine in the background.
   

Visiting the GERN plant...
   

Details of the other side..... as it rides past me.
   

I have not had the chance to buy the LED lights, so I put a single light above the hood for now I'll add lights if funds and time permits, but for now - I'm done with the Duff Challenge!!

Thanks to all who helped along the way with comments and offered thoughts (especially the one where i dumped the "new style " hood for the older looking type)..
