    Wow, that is incredible!! Are you sure that isn't just a shrunken 715??

    Very nice work indeed. I know that takes a lot of patience and skill.

    Thanks, guys! It almost took as long to build as my real M715. I would peck away at it an hour or so a night for quite a while. The shame of it all is that I have at least $150 in just the materials I used to build it. Between buying 3 complete models to cut apart and all the styrine stock.

    Isn't it "Trident" that makes a very small model?

    Fit and finish are supposedly not the best and its real small if I remember correctly, like 1/87th or something.

    Yes, it is HO scale for use with model railroading. Which means that is about the size of a hot wheel car.

    Yep it was about the right ratio for the real one 1/18.
