MOD/MOC - Western Train with Constitution Engine & Custom Box Car / Caboose

Recommended Posts

This build started with a desire to make the Lone Ranger Constitution engine and tender, once I did I went on to motorize it and add two cars to make a very short train. I mostly built the engine and tender out of my collection with a couple small bricklink orders. The only mods to these are the push rods and adding the motor and receiver in the tender (slightly enlarging it to hide the receiver a bit). Then I built the custom boxcar, which doubles as a place to store the batteries. On top there is a 2x2 spot in the vents that connects to the power button, and the LED can be seen through the vent next to that. Lastly I finished it off with a basic caboose MOC.

I like this a lot. I wish TLC could put this much detail in a steam engine train set.
