N scale South African Blue Train Kitchen Car
thingiverse
No-one seems to make South African n-scale trains and I really wanted one. So I designed and printed a whole set of 19 coaches of the world famous Blue Train myself. I've uploaded everything you need to build a complete set: Class 18E locomotive (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2844936) Conference Car (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2833029) Kitchen Car (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2834397) Dining Car (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2835802) Lounge Car (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2836933) Club Car (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2838216) Personnel Car (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2839262) Baggage Car (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2840276) Power Car (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2841486) Luxury Suite (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2842658) Deluxe Suite (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2843960) Bogieset with static-display wheels (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2844942) The Blue Train Set 1 accommodates 54 guests and has six Deluxe Suites and one Luxury Suite, while Set 2 accommodates 82 guests and contains eight Deluxe Suites and three Luxury Suites. To see how each set is configured, visit http://www.bluetrain.co.za/train-layout. To assemble the coaches, you'll need glue and a set of 12x3mm bolts with locknuts to attach the bogies. If you want them to run, you'll also need n-scale metal wheels. Alternatively, if you only want them as a display model, just print the bogies with static-display wheels. The loco body fits onto a Fleischmann 7232. You'll need some glue and do some sanding or filing to make it look nice. The cowcatcher needs to be glued onto the loco's bogie/coupler so that it can move freely without rubbing against the body. I use the following settings: No rafts or supports anywhere For the coaches, I set my printer to 90% infill and a layer thickness of 0.2mm for the bogies and undercarriage. For the coach itself, I used 90%, 0.2, with enough speed to prevent filament droop over the windows. I set the furniture to 30%, 0.1, and the roof to 10%, 0.1.
