Posted August 15, 20213 yr This is an original creation of mine, and also one of my favorite MOCs. Though I referenced some real life streamliners, the design is wholly original. It is a streamlined Heavy Pacific locomotive, with its shape and silver accents garnering it the moniker of Silver Bullet. This MOC uses mostly vanilla parts in Bricklink Studio, aside from many of the silver parts, custom single studs used for lighting effects, and the XL wheels from Big Ben's Bricks. It also has fully modeled valve gear made entirely out of Technic, as well as an original design of corridor tender. Feel free to comment your thoughts and feedback, and lemme know what y'all want to see next.
August 15, 20213 yr Lookin' good, but just as with your other locos, this one has a major problem - all drive wheels are flanged, meaning that the loco would suffer from very high friction in curves or simpy derail. It's hard to tell how the lead truck and the one behind the drive wheels are constructed, those need to be able to swivel side to side as well.
