| A very Clean and wonderfull build of the great lakes special. I wish I still had mine. It is a shame that Sterling went out of buisness they had at one time some very impressive kits of the century. I have their Great Lakes T2 Trainer, Originally designed for U controll but I am going to go ahead and build her for display, A HARDY WELL DONE POPPY. |
