O16.5 1.5 compartment brake coach (for resin printers)

thingiverse

this is a remix of the 7mm scale brake composite by caderifor, which is itself a remix of a OO9 coach, most of the tweaks are to make everything fit together a little bit better, as well as to allow it to fit my own Fox patter bogies. The bogies included with this model are designed to take standard "OO" gauge 12.5mm wheelsets as produced by Hornby, Bachmann Branchline, and Peco, this diameter of wheel is necessary to ensure that the NEM pocket designed into the center piece sits at the correct height. Brass bearings are not required. the largest component is the underframe, which is aprocimately 146mm x 53mm, meaning it should be printable on the Anycubic photon depending on how you angle it The ends have been widened to sit over the sides, allowing the seating to fit inside the interior a little better, and the lamps have been removed (I intend to design a separate O scale lamp that can be printed) The end buffers have been plated over, and a rivited coupler plate added. the frame sides have been trimmed back to remove the center step and the oversize rivets and I've fitted a continuous step along the length of the frame the body now sits higher, at roughly 13mm high at the coupler plate center (the little rivited rectangle on each end of the frame), this is comparable to other 2ft 6in lines the seats have been cut about to be a bit more practical, in the pack you'll find a single bench, a double bench, and two single person seats, these last two are designed to go below the duckets. this should give you seating for one full compartment plus an extra bench in the guards compartment for when it's busy, or for when you're using a single coach on a sleepy branchline service the bogies are held on via pins, these are loose until glued in place
