TTm 1/120 scale Wismarer Schienenbus (railbus)

thingiverse

These railbuses were built in late 1930s in different gauges and widths and length. This is a 1000mm narrow gauge version with 2430mm width according to my source^[1]. Some cars changed the gauge from 750mm to 1000mm when they changed railways after 1945. I try to create a printable Version based on the KATO Chassis for Pocket Line Tram (11-108). I shortened it by 3mm on each side and added a V on the inside where the small arrow on the chassis should point to, because both sides differ a little. I added stands inside the windows to prevent hanging walls. Had a lot of trouble with warping roof, so added anti wrap brims in cura via plugin. I added base frames with steps and without - the version with steps printed not perfect, so I printed single steps and added them separately. I keep the engine housing without the rot(ated) marker, because it looks nice, but I would advice to print the rotated version to get better details. You'll find some videos / pictures on [TikTok](https://www.tiktok.com/@tomeks_ttm) and on [Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/tomeks_ttm/) soon. I expect an update here before this year ends. **Remarks:** * The first 2 pictures are rendered from an older version, some parts -- especially engine housing -- had changed. * The original lights are rounded and not full connected to the wagon. I decided to make them this way to keep a lighting with LEDs possible, but its difficult to get power from the capsuled power unit. ###Updates * 2022-12-29 Added 2 onRequest files for a better start in other scales a case without supports and lights and floor - feel free to add your own floor and a roof without lights and the gap for the luggage rack. * 2022-12-22 First build but still some parts missing (ladders, lower luggage racks) * 2022-11-01 HAd a ... *(I have no idea what this milestone was for, but ...
