Friday Night Live

Marooned on the workbench, my first steam loco in a long while. I put the coal bunker together for my Ja, and while its the correct size, it doesn't seem to work with the boiler, which is also the correct size.

It seems that I've run into one of those times where I need to toss out the plan and just build something that looks right. I've still got problems in that I cannot work out how to build the front end with the compressor covers.
The main problem i have with a project like this is that sometimes I can't move forward until I have thought out the problem I'm trying to solve. I think I'll just have to force myself to have a go at building something, and worry about getting it right later.
