Thomas; a stupidly detailed steam train

Tags are open :D

So, discord folks most likely already know-

-this guy

This cheeky little engine is my most researched for project yet, and I think I've obsessively looked through at least a hundred images and peices of information by now!

He is a horrifying amalgamation of the irl E2's, E4's, and 1960 RWS thomas, with stuff Ive learned about other engines, other versions of him, and my Flying Scotsman project as filler info (mostly knowing what and how stuff function because info about the E2s and its cousins are rare to me).


I am very proud of him as you may be able to tell :))))





I couldnt do a gif for some reason, so here's a link to his valve gear motion


Thummish for tag :D


Thanks for viewing, all :))))

ok, second edit, wow, thanks for you guys' support!

    @Bellcat oh, AnderWorks has already done a neat and simple-ish E2 :)

    Yes, a gearbox on a steam locomotive, which doesn't have a gearbox.

    You know you’ve reached peak detail when you include a functional gearbox
