Thanks for the tip. Let me pass on your ideas to Bill and see what can be
done.

Subject: [cpha] Re: Looking for D10 backhead photos
Hi Jeff,
What about the D10G in the Museum of Science and Technology? The website shows
that it’s missing a couple of parts, but not from the back head.
The Museum is scheduled to reopen to the Public on the 14th (members preview on
the 12th and 13th). The cab of the D10 isn’t ordinarily accessible, so some
arrangement would need to be made to photograph it. However, the Museum staff
are likely either at work or about to be at work, so perhaps they could take
the photos if they’re needed quickly.
I know Rapido has contacts at the Museum, so maybe the engine isn’t as intact
as it appears. However, if they’ve assumed the Museum is shut down and can’t
help, that no longer appears to be case.

Hi Everyone,
I reviewed the latest Rapido D10 drawings late last week and it looks awesome.
However, there is one area that’s wanting more attention and that’s the
interior cab and backhead.
If you have photos of the D10 cab and backhead, or know if there is a photo in
a book, has access to a D10, or have the backhead drawing please let me know
ASAP.
I’ll collect everyone’s responses, document and forward to Bill and get it
included otherwise we’re going to just have to live with an incomplete
interpretation.
Cheers.
