Tji-chan Posted March 16, 2014 Posted March 16, 2014 Hoi hoi Here the photo's of the Atlas rail-road excavator for narrow track rail. The model is based on the Atlas 220 WWR "Sterke Hufter" (Strong **hole) Normely it's working under the rail catenary and have no problem to lift 10 ton whit the boom completly set out to the frond. I don't now or there realy exists a narrow track model but this model is made for Lego rails. One thing that is not correct on the model is the pneumatic cilinders, The real model have underlying cylinders, On my model the are situated on top of the boom. All the boom functions are pneumatic, The rail wheels can go up and douwn by small air cylinders. It roles and turn manual, Made als some equipment for it like a rail stabilizer, weed control unit, a hook , excavator bugget small and midium, and a jip.. Hope you like it. ps hope my post is easier to read if not pleace say so ! Part 2 Loading a truck whit air The weed control unit in action The rail stabilizer in action More photo's you can find here. http://www.mijnalbum.nl/Album=IVIEUYC4 Muddy Quote
Captainowie Posted March 16, 2014 Posted March 16, 2014 Nice. What prompted you to turn the cylinders at the base of the crane arm upside-down? Quote
Tji-chan Posted March 16, 2014 Author Posted March 16, 2014 Hoi hoi On the real model the cilinders are also placed up side douwn. Muddy Quote
BiohazardRacer Posted March 16, 2014 Posted March 16, 2014 Hello fellow countrymember. I like your excavator al though the proportions are a bit off. I really like your different attachments for your crane Quote
Milan Posted March 16, 2014 Posted March 16, 2014 I know it is not the star of this topic, but nice truck :) Quote
Tji-chan Posted March 16, 2014 Author Posted March 16, 2014 Hello fellow countrymember. I like your excavator al though the proportions are a bit off. I really like your different attachments for your crane I totally agree whit you. This is my first rail road crane and there are some more thinks i don't like on the model. For sure it was a lot of fun to make it and i will make a better one. Whit most of my models a'm not satisfied but making bit by bit progres. Muddy ps for the truck you can take a look over here: http://www.mijnalbum.nl/Album=RHCNDXJH . Quote
BiohazardRacer Posted March 16, 2014 Posted March 16, 2014 Nice job on the trucks maybe you can check out my MOC page here Link. I've made a moc on base of the 8258 crane truck and I think that you can get good ideas for more reach of your cranes Quote
Lakop Posted March 16, 2014 Posted March 16, 2014 Interesting vehicle and I like your set up with the truck. I'm sure you will make the improvements you want. If possible, can you motorise it so it can mount and dismount the tracks. H Quote
Lost_In_Noise Posted March 17, 2014 Posted March 17, 2014 Weed control unit= police Sorry, had to... Nice work, do you have a photo of the real thing? I searched, but found nothing.... Quote
TinkerBrick Posted March 17, 2014 Posted March 17, 2014 The excavator is great. If only the tracks would be a bit wider. The "giant" machine on the tiny tracks looks odd, almost like 750mm or 600mm narrow gauge. And i like the operators cab. Quote
Tji-chan Posted March 17, 2014 Author Posted March 17, 2014 Hoi hoi Yes the track is the killer in this projeckt. Need to find some old school track for this bild. Some photo's of the real model you can find over here. http://www.bouwmachineforum.nl/forum/viewtopic.php?f=233&t=33718 Muddy Quote
