  1. Hey would it be possible to get a set of those sails in say, the carribbean clipper stripes but the original imperial flagship 3 sail set?
  2. Do you have an estimate as to what an R104 switch is going to cost? I need to make sure I have the proper credit approval for the second mortgage...
  3. It's a nice amount of detail and shaping crammed into a small space. I like it!
  4. I'm with Daedalus on his third paragraph there... If you come up with something to show people would like to see it, but Coaster sets a pretty high standard.
  5. That boat isn't a single piece hull, it's two of the last boat hulls back to back... That's a monster ship.
  6. Is anyone still able to get a controller to connect with multiple hubs without the app running? My two hubs are up to date as of yesterday but I'm having nothing but trouble with them. After coding @Elphiel's program shown two pages ago, one of the hubs stopped connecting to that device. So now I'm trying to recode it on my cell phone but I was hoping I could still just pair the controller with the two hubs and skip that step. And @Elphiel if you're still out there, what is the reason for the variable in the bottom left corner? The program seems to act the same with or without it. Thanks for the screenshot too, cause I have no idea what I'm doing with this thing. Even with the app working the performance was all over the place. Sometimes the power would step properly and sometimes it just went from 0 to 100 or vice versa. Any ideas? SD
  7. Great looking build. Do you have more pics of that engine anywhere?
  8. I've motorized the hogwarts express with an L motor, and have been fighting to get DaMangos Flying Scotsman motorized. I think most steam locos will need an XL motor in them if you want them to pull anything. I try and put a boat weight in each loco but I don't think that's even enough half the time.
  9. I like the attention to detail here. Really adds some depth to a layout.
  10. I might be over thinking this but i wanted to see if anyone else had any ideas. Normally I'd have a standard steam loco with one driven axle and rely on the siderods to power the other axles, but I'm thinking it might be better to put some gears in to power both the rear and front axles, as there is usually a fair amount of slop in the siderods, and I'm starting to think that slop may be detrimental. Obviously the gears may have some slop too but I'm thinking it will be less. What are your thoughts or solutions? SD
  11. If you use the app you can use two motors and reverse one but i don't know if you can use a controller in that case.
  12. Great rendition of a fun locomotive. You've captured an amazing amount of the little details that really make the design. I can almost smell the diesel smoke and hear the chugging as it loads!
  13. I know the switches are the priority right now, but do you have any plans to make any curves between r56 and r104 down the line? I gotta say, both my orders so far have been on my front porch within 3 days of ordering, you really don't screw around with the shipping! Thanks! sd100
  14. Is the new R104 just an improved version? I just bought a full circle and they seem great.
  15. I couldn't resist. Bought a loop of r104 from coaster... My wife is going to kill me shortly after he releases those switches.
  16. My bank account is fearing the day you release these things...
  17. Man, I should really have bought all my parts before I posted this... Now were all gonna be fighting for the green on bricklink...
  18. I've managed to put together an LDD parts list, with a few exceptions. LDD does not seem to have 1x1 brackets, so on the trucks in this model those were replaced with 1x1x2 w/ studs on side. Also, the 2x1x2 bricks in this parts list are dark green instead of just green. One of the 4x4 plates with 2x2 cutout is light grey instead of medium. It took my computer almost an hour to go through all the steps to get this PDF made so I'm not going to regenerate it any time soon but this gets you a list of *almost* everything you need. Parts list is for the locomotive, tender, and auxiliary tender. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1YqtkDdP87d_BeGD4VoUIl8vmNQ0mxDex/view As another note, the 1x1 cheese pieces in Step 8 interfered with the large gear when I tried to build it IRL. I don't know if there is a newer version of that large gear, but due to that I omitted them in my build. Da Mangos didn't know what he started on here, lol. But it is an awesome engine, and all credit still goes to him.
  19. You wouldn't still have them sitting in your downloads folder by any chance would you? Putting them from paper back into the computer would be too much of a hassle...
  20. Or at least if Damangos is gone maybe someone who has the instructions could shoot them out to us, maybe?
  21. Some great trains there. You happen to know if there's pics of that dark red steamer anywhere else?
  22. Nice. If you're set on realism take a fan off and make it a gp38. It does look great with the high hood though.
