GG1 - Pennsylvania Locomotive in HO - 1:87 scale

thingiverse

Hello Everyone! It's been way too long since my last posts here, and now I'm excited to share another train engine with you all - the General Electric GG1. This locomotive is scaled at 1:87 and I'm currently printing it. Currently, it's just a dummy loco, but I'm working on adding an electric motor so it can run smoothly on standard 16.5 mm tracks, which is the HO standard. By the way... There are some very small parts to this model, like ladders, handles, a horn, and insulators for the pantograph. Honestly, I doubt any FDM printer can handle these tiny details, so it's best to use an SLA/DLP printer if you want perfect details. Speaking of the pantograph... There are thousands of metal-made pantographs available on the market - you'll just need to find the perfect pair on eBay.com. By the way 2... I'm not sure if the complete model is printable, it's more like a reference point.
