At the moment I am making a 3D model of #3, and make it runable in Auran's Trainz 2006. But I need a little bit of help at the moment. I need detail pictures of the front of the tender, the top of the tender, all sides of the lamp, the steam domes, the rear of the engine, and a few more that I can't think of at the moment. Is there anybody that has/or can get those pictures?
Here is what the model looks like so far:

Looking good, N.

I am wondering why you need a photo of the front of the tender. To my way of thinking, that won't even be visible on the model.

I plan to put in a camera in the cab so you can ride in there in the simulator. Along with having all the controls working.
O yea. Sorry for not putting the thread in this section originally.

What kind of software are you creating that in? It looks great!

I have blueprints of the tender and the cab if you need them.

Here's a photo showing the rear wall of the cab. As you can see, there really isn't anything there--just a green wall. (Well, I guess the signal bell is there). The doors you see are the open cab doors.

Thank you very much Steve!
And yes, if you could send me the plans they will be very useful. How do you have access to all these pictures and plans?
Thanks a bunch again!

Just lucky, I guess! :wink:

I'll probably get the blueprints scanned next weekend--school's starting for the kids, so I'll be a bit tied up after work.

That's okay. Please, take as much time as you need. I don't want to be an annoying ankle-biter :lol:
