I present you the NWR's premier express locomotive. Engine #4 , Gordon! He has 2 L motors in his boiler that power the front and back drivers with battery in the tender and his side rods are all 100% real legal LEGO (as long as you consider cutting flex tube legal)

This right here is effectively what my final physical model of Gordon will look like! right now the red lining is being created by clipping bricks. But physically it will be sticker/lining tape. I cant wait to get the name and number plate done up IRL! Thanks John!

Fresh from his rebuild at Crewe, LMS Jubilee Henry! I realize that he has the Fowler, but that's temporary. I will eventually be building him a more proper variant at some point. The next one I get to will probably either be the the Stanier or the TVS toaster. haven't decided yet
