I would really like to see this in bricks. It is a smart looking steamer. I like the details that you have in this such as the aches frame over the front wheels and the way the hoses are mounted. Those were details that gave me a lot of trouble on my steamer so I appreciate how well you have designed these and the steamer in general. The horse harnesses also are very good.
Thanks I am glad you like it! And I am underway on the phys bricks build, I had to order parts. I'll post it in a few weeks.

The only suggestion I have is that the boiler should be bigger. If this is a first rate steamer the boiler should be significantly higher than the driver’s seat. I think that this would look great with the Central Fire Station.
You are right! I was so focused on making it small, I made it too small!! So see "second version" above, I made the boiler 1.5 studs (30 LUs) taller. I also raised the bell and I lowered the hose attachment points by 1 stud and moved them back 1 stud, to clear the rear wheel tops. I think it looks better now. What do you think?
