Great Find "wheelinround",
But I must differ with "elderly" because his "Stagecoach" is as good if not better. Maybe to be fair, one could give both gents a "first place prize" for "Best Model In Forum"; "Best Model In Show".
I can only hope to aspire to their skill and patience’s one day.
Cheers, Crowie
