Another note on this set:

I checked the 'box' category for the 725 shown here and although there
are at least TWO different versions (actually, there may even be three) I can't
find any of them...should I be looking somewhere else on BL? Thanks,

LM

On the market, I can only find one version of box. The other photo on Bricklink
is probably taken from a catalog and is a prototype (I believe).

I went through the instructions and found only 7. Can you please tell me where
the 8th one is supposed to be?

I found only 7 in the instructions, also, but the instructions seem to have a
mistake in the build when compared to the sealed set contents. It seems the "ladder"
on the back of the engine should be built symmetrically with respect to itself
and to the "ladder" built on the tender. Both of these "ladders" should have
a slope on the top of both sides. With those 4, plus the 4 from the front of
the engine, you get a total of 8.

The request has been accepted.

Cheers,
Randy
