I'm surprised that I did not create a new thread on my creation of Santa Fe 2-10-2 steam locomotive. I guess I forgot to since we changed over to the new forum several years ago.
I originally started on this project back in 2012 and I stopped working on it because it was found to be too complicated and I don't have enough experience in it.
Well, I'm somewhat back into it. I found someone who could make the wheels for me really cheap and it works great!
I will have to redesign the gearbox as the gears are not properly positioned and it requires a lot of torque to turn the wheels. I will have to make the gear ratio larger and try to minimize the torque needed to turn the wheels.
These are some of the pictures I had been working on. I have more pictures, but I rather give you all the most recent progress.
