Steam engine - This is a real steam engine and is my first 7.5in steam locomotive. This is a real propane fired steam locomotive (0-4-0) with a cold water tank built onto the front of the locomotive. It has a blower, whistle, propane valve and firebox door, engine water pump (similar to an axle pump), superheater, feedwater heater with hand pump and an external tube boiler. Hydro tested to 180psi - safety is set to 100 psi.
CN painted gas powered 4 wheels with belt slip drive, has a bell, light and horn. This locomotive can only be powered forward and only at the speed you preset the engine for - idle. (idle is still quite fast)
VIA painted electric (12v) powered 4 wheels with lights, sound effects and horn: This locomotive has no speed control, it can go forward at full speed, backwards or stopped.
This was to be built as the simpliest locomotive. It was built using wheels that i machined out of 4041 steel, and gears purchased at princess auto and a ebike motor. The sound effects are from mylocosound
Human powered pedal car - made from an old bike: Most people have to use their hands to power this, as it isn't long enough to use your legs. This may get converted to a pump car at some point.
