Brian,
The Eagle has landed!
My OGF engine came out perfect. Thank you for sticking with it, and finding the new painter, this looks like it was all done by MTH, great job.
Thanks also to everyone else involved with this project.
So glad to now have a complete OGF train on my layout, the engine, hopper, and the caboose. Long time coming but well worth the wait.
Can’t wait for the Club flat car with trailers.

Thank you Craig. You made my day, week, month, and year. Two years in the trenches with this project. I can't count the trails and tribulations I have personally encountered. However in the end, this is what all of us who were involved in this project wanted for our loyal members. All of the effort were well worth it.Our new painter, what can I say but hooray. It is a real shame that he was not involved with this project at the beginning. He is the gentleman that is doing our 2022 OGF Club Car Pup Trailers. We know for sure that those who have purchased them will receive a manufacturer quality product. There are only a few left, so better get your order in.

Brian,
I think you have found your new painter. Please forward my appreciation to this gentleman, as well as the decal person. They both did top notch work.
The engine is a home run, in every way.
Thanks again for your persistence in FINISHING the job.
Craig

Thanks so much, Craig. Our new painter wanted to send the first one representing the quality of his work to me so that I could see first hand how good it looks. I said, "absolutely no", our members have been waiting a long time for them and they come first. Mine will be the last one to be finished. Only right thing to do. I will let him know first thing on Monday morning how much you appreciate his work.
Our new painter had one of the older OGF Engine versions that I had to send to him to correct a very glaring error. The only comment that I will mention is he said after first examining it "to expect something very different from me". Your photo and video I so appreciate promises made, promised kept. Refreshing. Makes the completion of this project so worthwhile.

You have this soooo correct, David, It takes some imagination and faith in our members to support a project like this. And as usual, they came through for us in spades. What other O-Gauge model train forum that you can think of would take on a project like this. I believe that we all know the answer to that question.
I am so proud of our members.
