I think that makes the loco so much better. Having finally seen a standard Roundhouse in the flesh I admit I was not impressed at all compared to the real one. That is a big step in the right direction. Ashover coach looks superb as well.

yeah, the comparison with dads scratch built model just shows the detail that should/could be there. This roundhouse model is going to have the works.
