3Dprinted  

I don't have enough thumps on my body to give you, man. AWESOME!! In addition, almost the entire design is done from pictures. Is just like.. Wow... Double AWESOME.

I am currently working on printing this project. Super excited to see the end result. I scaled it down to about 1:42 so it would fit on my print bed.

Looks fantastic - hoping to get more into this hobby as I have inherited a nice garden railway. Always loved the USSX 1500's

Very impressive model and detail on the print, too. I will be adding this to the list of things to print for the #3DP365Project and following along on your future projects. Excellent work Daniel, thanks for sharing this.

Yep, very few dimensioned drawings online, books are where those will be found. For instance, there are SW1500 plan drawings, side, top, front and rear ends, printed at HO scale, with some dimensions listed, on page 53 of Kalmbach Publishing's 1980 book titled Model Railroader Cyclopedia Volume 2, Diesel Locomotives. Hundman Publishing, and Carstens Publishing, also probably had drawings in one or more of their publications in 1980s or 90s when the drawings were specifically made and copyrighted for that specific publication.

That is AWESOME. I'd like a GMD GP38-2 among a few other train cars and engines.

Thank you very much for this video. Getting back into modeling (1/35th scale) and looking into 3D printers and what they can/ can't do. Be kind of awesome to build some locomotives, rolling stock, passenger cars, etc. to put my military stuff on/in.

this is so cool! im going to print this! do more trains!

That looks fantastic! That's cool that you've built an American switcher.

Thanks man ! you give inspire!

Awesome project. Now all you need is a motor and airwire battery system and your ready to take it out into the garden.

pretty awesome!!

Very nice

Hey daniel I will print this file but where is the assembly instructions or file I can’t find it

ITS A SHAME ITS NOT IN MY HANDS LOL GREAT MODEL AND PRINT

Thank you man, I hope someday i can make Thai railway model , you is inspire! I love Thai railway from Bangkok ,Thailand Thanks

do you have a video of you putting it together

just wondering how did you print all parts to scale

where to get assembly instructions tony

In your archive on thingiverse, there is a problem with images folder, there are some "null" files which get overwritten and some images are just cubes.

is it possible to put a motor in this modell? or is there a plan for that in future?

Hei Daniel! Awesome work as always! I've been following your projects for a year or so. I would like to build my own HO scale trains and I was wondering if you could design for the less skilled of us some track switches? I'm pretty sure it would help a lot of persons! Keep up the good work !

pleae question ... is this compatible with OS-Railway track system ?

i am from Argentina , Buenos Aires, Great Job! what 3d printer do you recommend me? what do u think of a Prusa 3?

Riktigt snyggt må jag säga. Kanske dags att inköpa en 3D skrivare nu! Såg att ett av barnbarnen har skaffat så jag får väl testa där ;-) Jag har G just nu men det är ju samma räls till 1:32. Ja riktigt intressant! Tack.

Currently printing this bad boy. Is OpenRailways project still active?

Dec. 2, 2018---Thanks for the video....locomotive looks awesome. This is my 3rd (4th?) time watching it and now have your links saved. Don't own a 3D printer, but hope to get one some time next year or maybe have one printed for me locally. There's a place called The Garage where people donate their time & equipment so others can learn how to use them. Of course, donations are expected. And they have a 3D printer. Hoping I can download the files and learn how to 3D print there. Getting back into modeling, but going for 1/35th scale zombie/apocalypse dioramas. One of them I'd like to do is showing an abandoned caboose or boxcar on some siding with people trying to survive/watching out for zombies. Downloaded a lot of blueprints w/measurements and wasn't really looking forward to scratching building these item, but now.....

What are the hand rails made from?

Daniel what would you recommend for a starter/first 3D printer

How much u want for it

is there instructions for assembly?

Is it motorised?

Beautiful design, great, inspiring project. A couple of questions, if you don't mind: I've seen some commercially offered, 3D printed locomotives in a similar scale which seem to have significant "print lines". How did you get your model to come out so nice with minimal print texture? How would one go about re- scaling your 1/32 design to another scale, such as 1/29 or 1/24. Thanks for sharing such a terrific design, I hope to build it as soon as our local maker space has their printer up and running.

What printer did you use?

the lirr has that to

Looks great, how would you scale it 1/29 scale

Make your own railroad dude
