WOW. I'm stunned. Very nice work! 
How was this posted on Jan 22, but I never saw it until today? I read all new posts in the MBTA forum once a day? Also, does Sery mean something? Or is this moderator Sery on a second account?

Very nice work!
Also, SERy stands for Seashore Electric Railway, as in the Kennebunkport/Arundel trolley museum

Did we ever hear a music sweeter than the one that thrills, as it floats along the Deerfield, as it echoes o'er the hills.-E. A. Fitch
How we watch that little engine as it stalks across the plain; was there ever music sweeter, was there ever sight completer, than the coming of the train?
Wow, the last photo is so realistic. 1014 must of had a blown HEP unit so 011 has to tow it! Good work.

This is all just too good to be true! I'm blown away! If only I had the time and of course the massive amount of skill you obviously have.

Attached is a picture of the all electric PCC # 3197 which is nearly complete - still needs truck work.

Courage is not the absence of fear; it is the determination that some things are more important than fear.
Nice job ! You nailed the colors exactly. I painted a car with a small amount of real discarded T "tangerine" once. It's identical to your version. The creme is probably the hardest match and you got that down as well.
