Verry cool! Shame it can't be motorized, or pulled by a motorized cable.

Sliding tender wheelsets for curves.
Modeltrainman replied to Modeltrainman's topic in LEGO Train Tech
Thank you. In theory, as I haven't ran it, yet. I think the first wheel set should slide across the curve, followed by the second. Turntables tend to behave unpredictably. -

@JopieKWith all due respect sir, my photo skills need work. This render should explain my thinking. -

The tender holds the hub. I think I got the sliding working. -

Thanks! That's worth looking at. -

That's OK. Hmmm... Maybe turntables? I just need it to steer, rather than cause friction... -

Two. Let me find a picture. I don't know if you can see from this angle, exactly, but Casey Jr, as in the original Dumbo has a 4 wheel tender, and my tender is 10 studs long for Powered Up. The tender slows things down in the curves, I'd like to ease that, maybe by sliding thhe trucks, unless anyone has a better idea. -
I'm trying to rebuild my tender for Casey Jr from a few years back. I wamt to make both of the two axles slide for curves. How do I get the rail plate to stay in the 1x4 brick with channel?(Looking at the OE.)
