Barry Bogs' 1/22.5 scale Union Pacific Big Boy 4018 Left Side - Sep. 19th 2021 |
Guys,
I have been pushing the boys
this week to get the left side of the engine complete. One of the boys
was just sitting around and saying that he was done with the plumbing
under the cab, when clearly there was so much more to install. I told
him that he should have a "no pipe left behind" attitude. I don't think
they got it 100 % correct, but it looks good, and according to Lauri
Green in Australia, "if it looks good, then it is good". Well, life goes
on and I am directing the boys to turn the engine in the shop and finish
up the right side next. Turning the engine takes all the boys in the
shop to work in unison to get the job done! No easy task. You can bet
the boys will be pushed again to get the engine finished up, as this has
been over a year since this project was started. Thanks for your time
and intrest in the projects of Bogs Locomotive Works. |
