Well after finding out my nephew likes trains, his two uncles and grandfather have decided on making a train set for him. Here is the beginning of the project as it progresses I will update with pics as I did with the rocking horse. Thanks for taking a look.

Thanks Scott, are sure you really want to do that?

Looking forward to another great project Dana!

Thanks Corey.
 
That is really looking like an amazing set.

Great job.
 
Thanks for the update Dana! Something about that train reminds me of Blaine from Stephen Kings Dark Tower series! None of you guys probably know what I'm talking about do you? LOL It was a good series of books... Wow, that was awhile ago.

Yeah, those first 3 were really good. I started the 4th one but never made the time to read it all. I haven't read a book in awhile. After I win that lotto and get bored laying on the beach in St. Lucia I might pick up the next few of the series.

:hijacked: Ended

Sorry Dana
 
Holy cow Dana, that's awesome!! Serious skill involved here. Very cool....
 
Here are some updated pics of the progress on the train. These are just a few of the cars coming along with the engine. Also some of the cars are being painted along with the engine and the wheels.
