I bought this kit a few years back when I got back into model railroading after a 30 year break. I put it on the shelf because I was a little intimidated drilling all of the holes. When my rusty modeling skills improved to the point that I felt I was ready I pulled the kit off the shelf and built it. I shouldn't have been worried. The excellent template included with the kit made the drilling easy. It builds into a beautiful model and I would recommend it to everyone.
