Electricsteam Posted February 16, 2015 Posted February 16, 2015 Heh just a warning about errors I'm a tad stuck to mobile devices for a short while. ESCO narrow gauge steam locomotive. Built in five wide I've packed in a plethora of details any other things. Bare with me , direct link only since I can't resize the photos. http://i.imgur.com/tPRIKcX.jpg http://i.imgur.com/Y0ds7GF.jpg http://imgur.com/hIqJtHL.jpg http://i.imgur.com/zKz0Ytu.jpg It's quite a fragile thing... First locomotive build since moving into a new place finnaly got every thing unpacked and wanted to build! Not many narrow gauge steamers on fourm is there? Don't forget to check out ESCO's bag of ideas! Quote
Electricsteam Posted February 16, 2015 Author Posted February 16, 2015 Using imgur to resize I hope its allright Quote
legoman666 Posted February 16, 2015 Posted February 16, 2015 (edited) On imgur, if you add an h to the end of the filename like xvbnfd4.jpg -> xvbnf4h.jpg, you'll get a 1024x768 thumbnail of the original image. http://www.eurobricks.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=90302 I made a powered one a while ago. I've added driving rods since I took the photos. Yours looks good. Any plans to power it? Edited February 16, 2015 by legoman666 Quote
Electricsteam Posted February 16, 2015 Author Posted February 16, 2015 (edited) Would be nice to but all I have is one circle of the indiana jones track xD I am thinking about adding a passenger waggon or two if I find any more of the small train wheels... arnt the thumbnail restrictions like 600x500 still?

LEGO Train 12 Volts Posted February 16, 2015 Posted February 16, 2015 Very nice locomotive! I like the three pieces, very clever building technique! Quote

I think they like it 1024x768 or less; I've not been yelled at for using that size. You can do an "m" instead of an "h" if you want. Every browser I've used in the past 5 years auto shrinks the images anyway. Quote
Electricsteam Posted February 16, 2015 Author Posted February 16, 2015 Lego train 12v Oddly enough I got the idea a few years back from a minecraft trainmod, I made one of the locomotoves from ot, the smallest blue one but the only picture I have is a grainy DSI photo Quote
Electricsteam Posted February 16, 2015 Author Posted February 16, 2015 I don't suppose anyone sells custom narrow track with the attachment ends? Quote
legoman666 Posted February 16, 2015 Posted February 16, 2015 I don't suppose anyone sells custom narrow track with the attachment ends? ME Models will. Hasn't been released yet though. Quote
jrathfon Posted February 16, 2015 Posted February 16, 2015 (edited) ME Models said they would be releasing a narrow gauge track connector. No word yet. edit: ah, got beat to it! Edited February 16, 2015 by jrathfon Quote

I've ridden in the engine you talk about (in Minecraft, obviously ). This is a very nice representation of said loco! :thumbup: Two thumbs up! Quote
Electricsteam Posted February 18, 2015 Author Posted February 18, 2015 I remeber when i installed the mod again after about 3 years and oh my god they are detailed, specily the RoW mod.... anyways.... does anyone think lego would come out with an intermediate wheel between the smallest and the smallest with the axel x ?

coaster Posted February 18, 2015 Posted February 18, 2015 Maybe, maybe not. But we could make one if you need it. Quote
Electricsteam Posted April 12, 2015 Author Posted April 12, 2015 HAH I found it! The old steamer I built off one of those minecraft train mods that helped to inspire this build here Quite a bad photo but it was taken with a DSI Quote
