Probably the new ALC Charger Locomotives, they have a big screen area on the back half that is lit up inside with LED lights
No, the loco I saw had 2 neon or whatever, lite up strips, down the side of the body like this:
The engine, not the one pictured had a lower skirt between the trucks and the neon dipped down in the middle. Wish I could have gotten a picture.
Hmmm, that’s interesting, would love to see it!
Sometimes I believe it would have been a WHOLE, HOLE lot easier to just model freight in my area?
BTW… that horn action was for cuz I was waving at the conductor like a left handed monkey in a banana tree !
I miss the caboose on trains. It’s like a sentence ending without a period
WTF (5678) (9101) (112)
Code 20 requirement met ^^^^^^^^^^
Nobody cares anyway cause it’s old school back in the day (in the hood)
Is your mock up removable Dan ? If so very cool…as it’s not that easy (at least for me) even if it looks like it is!!
Mines not all fancy like that it’s just a ghetto build from back in the day. I started with some PVC board and went from there, pinning the face with cut off 8D finish nails and pinning the lights and pilot with /32" brass. Everything is a press fit but sometimes and it works well.
However if you don’t do an inspection in years and just get them out to play with them this is what happens!
The Blue are printed with plastic (PETg), Yellow are resin and the rest are 1mm, 2mm Styrene and .8mm acrylic cut with the CNC.
Dan,
3 differnt plastics!
Have you found the legendary ONE GLUE to RULE THEM ALL?
I prefer the brush on solvent based products to fuse PVC and Styrene. My goto for most materials is DAP Rapid fuse (I spend a lot of time holding parts together and counting off 30 seconds). It’s a Hybrid CA formula. Gorilla super glue is similar and sets in 10 seconds. I like Loctite super glue for metal grabs to plastic or resin.
