Build: Comeng 2000 series

So, this is not my model, it was made by a Russian about 20 years ago, from a collage of photos in paint.NET, but I made it...

Formally known as the 2000 Series, but known universally as "Jumbos", because their rooflines resembled that of a Boeing 747, the trains were comprised of 2000 series motors and 2100 series trailers
These railcars had two sets of double pocket doors per side. 
They were diesel-hydraulic, and initially equipped with one 793kW MTU V12 per power car, although this was replaced with two 250kW Cummins I6T engines, much to my distress.
They were formally retired in 2015.
Profile view of cabins -- these cabins arose out of the need for a full cabin by unions.

Also, I am so excited, I may be going to a Pendulum concert on Mar 6!!! I will take photos, I promise :3
