No on my part it is just "artistic licence"...i thaught it looked cool but i also realised it would add to aerodynamic drag.... but i went with cool?

I recieved a whole bunch of South African Railways Locomotives drawings but am confused and not sure who sent them to me numthum or Gaieus so i must thank both of you or the one that sent the plans ...very much appreciated i will start working my way through them....watch this space ... once more thank you very much

I got so excited looking at the plans of the SAR locos that i just had to start on one this is the E5 1 electric loco ( i saw hundreds of them pulling anything from freight to passesger trains when i was still young and good looking).......brings a big lump to my throat.....here is the start .......watch this space
-
I wish I had your enthusiasm and dedication to details, dolphus.
Keep it up. And I will watch this space for sure. -
Hehe seen alot of these, They are still around Dolfus armed with Salt air Rifles,burns like crazy if they catch u walking around on the lines hehe

Numthumb thanks for the plans and the flattering remarks.....working on first loco

Class 5E 1 Progress ....Front right section

Started work on the bogies

Thanks for the complement James, mostly i model from scratch but that is because my computer,s filling system lets me down, and it is faster to start from scratch, the advantage of doimg the same thing again normallt leads to a improved product
( i shpuld take a month offand sort my s**t out) -
Hi Dolf,
I missed that thread before. Just found out about your train stuff. Very nice. I'll make sure to follow this thread.
Looking forward to seeing the finished model.
Best,
