Selander Posted February 15, 2019 This is a Swedish T44 diesel locomotive, in two color schemes, and both equipped with the "new" Powered Up system. The PuP battery box withg it's slimmer height is better for locomotives with limited space heightwise like the T44. Also it means battery change is quite easy.

It is a plate 1*2 with ladder ref 4175, assembled with half stud offset, so it becomes flush with sides. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sven J Posted February 15, 2019 Ah, thank you. I didn't know they exist in blue and orange, so I never thought of that possibility. But it's surely a clever solution! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gotoAndLego Posted February 16, 2019 I think you could also do it with jumpers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Feuer Zug Posted February 17, 2019 Nice pair of locomotives. The use of the new PUP system makes them even more fun. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Roadmonkeytj Posted February 19, 2019 I like the way you've detailed the hub... Does pressing the 2x2 jumper stud plate activate the hub or do you need to remove it? I love the ladder grill it's great parts useage Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
