Okay, some comments about the OMI S-2 I've purchased will be down below, but first, some questions...
* WHY does this software shrink our pictures so much? (At least it displays shrunken on my browser that comes with Win7 Pro.) The pictures were linked to my own private web space and are 1024 x 768... yet they show up as these tiny little pics??? Is there a way around this???
Now, for the comments about the Overland Models S-2:
* First off, it is EXQUISITE to simply look at. Almost don't want to paint it!
* There's also a bag of goodies that came with it so it can be personalized somewhat. I will eventually see what all is in the packets.
* It runs pretty darn good. I will eventually take off the carbody and take a look-see at the mechanism. Could be that I can add flywheels for even better performance... but it's pretty good "as is".
* I've never painted brass... so I may have a brass painter put on the basic black in semi-gloss and then take it from there. We'll see.
Anyway... that's it: I finally have a basis for a reasonably accurate Kansas City Terminal engine! Yippeeee!
