A remix of the 16mm Diesel Loco from arockstone. Scaled up to 45mm Gauge/G Scale (~1/22.5) and modified to take LGB pickups and a cheap motor to run on LGB track under power from the rails.

I'm pretty new to 3D design so apologies if there are errors. Some parts require supports, these should be obvious. I printed most parts with 20% infill, but some smaller parts could be printed with 100% infill. I used black PLA for most of the parts, but you could print the window frames, handrails and front grill in white PLA. To complete this model you'll also need axels, pickups, motor, wires, brass strip, screws, clear acrylic sheet, bearings, rubber bands, glue and paints. Please see video for full details and links.
