Hi, I like to share my last model build, is a kit from spanish company OcCre

http://catalog.occre.com/modelismo-ferroviario.html

kit is made in metal castings, wood and brass plates.
it is long 720mm and it weight 3kg in running order.

I have set my locomotive with 2wd motor unit sold separately

my locomotive is radio controlled, it have smoke unit, speed controller and 3s lipo.

now I show you how I do it..

sorry for my poor english, I do my best to answer your question

first step I have built the bolier..

I have bend brass plates using a iron cylinder ad a bottle as to obtain the right radius curve

then I have glued metal castings with Uhu plus 300+ endfest

I have drill bracket fusion as to pass wires inside

where possible I have soldered

windows are in real glass

now the mistake and 2 versions of smoke unit..
in first I put smoke unit in the tender because was not in my hand when I had built the boiler..

it cross all the train to the tender.. 40cm distance.

but the smoke was not enough

then I arm myself with a great dose of courage for a very intrusive modify

now smoke is great.. I just have to set it proprotional with forward.

front casting now is openable

Brilliant, after building an “O” gauge model of a straight boiler Scott class (royal Scot) steam locomotive in O gauge, I can appreciate the amount of work involved and the great standard you have achieved.... well done 👍

last work on locomotive are patin and dirt (not eccessive)

now I'm doing the indoor railway
I have to do two long curves as to finish my track.
it is comparable with R3 rail.. 2 meter diameter

first locomotive test it slipper much, reverse run was impossibile.
as to solve situation I have mould an heavy ballast lead plate.

and this is my last run test

that's all for now

today postimage has broken his site .org
so I have no way to edit photos and chance .org with .cc otherwise photos will be visible..
if a moderator want to edit my posts is easy to chance .org with .cc

this is the message they give:
postimg.ORG domain is locked by Registry, no prior notice.
While we hope to resolve the issue, we chose postimg.CC as our new home.
Please update codes embedded in your websites.

so here edit is bloked and I have no way to solve by myself.. the only thing I can do is give to you the new adress gallery of this locomotive and I hope it's only a temporary problem
