Posted February 22, 201213 yr Here is my 8-wide version of the BR64. I modelled it after the actual lok numbered: 064-019-3. Hence no hole in the water tank above the first driver. This helped a lot: the 9V battery is hidden at that place... I'll post the link to the brickshel folder once it is made public. I will also provide an ldr file for a model almost like the one I present (I made many alterations while building it) Edited February 22, 201213 yr by Frank STENGEL
February 24, 201213 yr Author Being a noob, I can't post with links yet... Anyway, I have a gallery on Brickshelf with the loc. Search for user fstengel...
February 24, 201213 yr I've seen the inner 9 volts battery and the power button, I use the same system with my locomotives
February 24, 201213 yr Author I've seen the inner 9 volts battery and the power button, I use the same system with my locomotives Guess where I got the idea?
February 25, 201213 yr Hi Frank, I just looked at your pictures on brickshelf. This is a beautiful engine.
October 30, 201410 yr Hey Stengel, how does the flanged wheel spacing on your GREAT BR64 like standard lego curves and switches?
October 30, 201410 yr Author I haven't found any problems with the spacing. I had to slightly modify the front and back trucks to prevent them from jumping track.
October 30, 201410 yr Author Good question. There is some friction due to the flanges, therefore causing a slowdown in curves.
October 30, 201410 yr Thank you, this helps me as I am just finishing a steamer and wanted to make sure i wasn't going to use bad spacing. thanks for your help.
