Poochi anna, what a lovely piece of engineering! I saw a carboard-based model of WAP-4 in your house when I had visited you a while ago. Needless to say, I was impressed by it. But this lovely piece has taken your modeling to another dimension. Looking ...

Good stuff! Would love to have one showcased in my home! Are there plans to produce more? If so, then I propose that the overseas members get some discounts :-) :-)

I was fortunate to have the Director of ICF musuem,PER to have had his "proactive" hospitability,wherein he actually took poochi sir's model and placed it in the sun for some shots which i wanted!!
And this is the T.N /2621/2622.Yippe:-)!!

Very nicely done Poochi. Couldnt help but notice the 08 date on the coach!

Thanks, Vrijilesh! Yes, I'm making the smaller version (1:78 scale) with yellow bands and CBC.

Brilliant and fantastic work Poochi. This is just too good.
Anyway like Vrij, I’m going to HAVE to nitpick too ;-)
Do AC 2 tier coaches have the large battery components like those of AC 3 tiers?

Poochi.. I cant believe this is a model.. its just so perfect.

But I HAD to nitpick! From the train name boards, it appears to be Chennai-New Delhi. So, it must be GT/TN. Both these trains now have CBC rakes. So where are the yellow bands...

perfect!!i loved the glaze of the paint and the perfection..
