Congratulations to e-paw, Gary S and Doctorwayne, and Nachoman!
A big Thankyou to all who joined the challenge, and voted for the entries!
This was one of the "most fun" challenges, builds, contests, we've had here.
It was a joy to be a part of it!
............and I got a work train out of it!
We always learn far more from our own mistakes, than we will ever learn from another's advice.
The greatest place to live life, is on the sharp leading edge of a learning curve.
Lead me not into temptation.....I can find it myself!

There are links in the poll to each of the contest entry threads. Some great ideas, work, and information on modifying rollingstock can be found in there.
