XG BC Posted January 6, 2025 Posted January 6, 2025 After making the prototype chassis yesterday i have made a locomotive out of it, inspired by the egger bahn electric locomotive: here is mine: and yes it drives on its own. Quote

I like how you used two tracks to make a narrow lane thank you! yeah this wont be a permanent thing, i will make proper narrow gauge track. Quote
Sebeus I Posted January 9, 2025 Posted January 9, 2025 What a cute little thing . Any Idea what kind of operations such small locomotive would be used for? Quote
XG BC Posted January 10, 2025 Author Posted January 10, 2025 shunting goods around a factory most likely. or mining industry. just generally industrial use. Quote
XG BC Posted January 10, 2025 Author Posted January 10, 2025 a video of it running, including the track i made (i had some plastic track laying around, that i dont use) https://flic.kr/p/2qEzwrt the track is made by cutting the middle two studs out with a saw. Quote
Toastie Posted January 10, 2025 Posted January 10, 2025 Simply amazing. This is so cool. Do you see any approach to include Tenka's Circuit Cubes stuff? Even when making it a tiny bit larger? The BLE cube w/ Lipo is 4 wide (blue, ok, that sucks), the motor 2 wide but a 4 long - but then your lovely critter would be ... free. I used their products on my monorail from the dark side ... Anyway: Congratulations on this truly wonderful achievement! (As others have said) All the best, Thorsten  Quote
XG BC Posted January 11, 2025 Author Posted January 11, 2025 thank you, yeah have tried fitment with studio, it would need to be changed quite a bit to work, but i might come up with something else in the future... Quote
Bailey-Blue Posted January 11, 2025 Posted January 11, 2025 Awesome little build! Super creative and well put together. Quote
GeoBrick Posted January 11, 2025 Posted January 11, 2025 Congrats on thinking out of the box like that in making that narrow gauge. Quote
XG BC Posted January 11, 2025 Author Posted January 11, 2025 thank you aswell. that idea with the rubber band that loops around came to me in the middle of the forest on a walk. wild how the brain Sometimes works. Quote
