2022 Contest Part 43 NMRA Master Builder Motive Power

What are we trying to do by totally scratch building 5 locomotives in the next 30 days, on top of the 10 weeks of research we've already put it? We're trying to win one of the least awarded certificates called Master Builder Motive Power. Very few have done this, even fewer have done it through a contest, which is NOT required. Of those who have completed it, many have taken the easy way out just to make the minimum. We're going climb K2, in winter, from the backside, with no oxygen, no ropes and no help. If we had not failed in the last 2 attempts, then none of the things we've done this year would exist.....
