Hi Kevin,
Downloaded Gowrie earlier and took her for a quick spin on the Ffestiniog.
Personally I think "superb" is the best word to describe her 8)
Very well done indeed.

Kevin, Gowrie is a treat for the eyes, especially on a 256mb+ videocard. Congratulations on a mini-masterpiece. I can tell you had a passion for this project.

Thanks, Bazza.

Must admit it's one of my favourite NG engines. Had tried to build a version a couple of years ago, but was never happy with it and so it was never released. Pauls shape file fixer has allowed me to have a bit of fun and make a model of Gowrie that I am happy with :)

In fact. it was six years ago today, that I first released an NG model to the community. I remember thinking, at the time, that I wished my Trainsim models could look as good as my "real" NG models (been a real NG modeller for many years). I think that, with Gowrie, that I am finally getting there. :)

Cheers,
Kevin

The only thing on the books, at the moment, is a new version of a double fairlie.

Please can you re-do your model of Mary Ann, it's a great model but it could be improved I guess. Because really is a loco that deserves the best. :) Thanks
