bogie u18c 1067mm add ons trainz simulator 2009

So far I have produced chassis for the Shapeways locos listed below, wheel size/motor/gear ratio/gauge are shown for each type. below that is an O&K MD1 and finally a CKD BN 30R.Īs I have made quite a few for Shapeways prints and have the drawings ready, it is a simple job to print one off or adjust the drawing for an odd gauge when required. The pictures left shows a Schoma gas burner and an LKM Ns2 with their bespoke power bogies, below is a Jung EL105, below that is an LKM Ns1 modified to 16.5mm, below that is a Feldbahn Struver, its actually 1/35th scale as the 1/43rd one was far too small to motorise. I prefer to have the body to hand when drawing the chassis, you can post it direct or, if buying a Shapeways body, use my address as the shipping address and it will come direct to me. These 3D printed units are made to order. The bottom picture shows my 16.5mm gauge 22mm wheelbase test build with 9.5mm wheels. The motor is a bit faster running than the N20 but still acceptable. This allows minimum wheelbase in 12mm gauge to be 22mm as well. To get round this I bought some double ended M15 motors which are 2mm narrower.

Minimum wheelbase 22mm, for 12mm gauge or wider but due to the width of the motor the minimum wheelbase for 12mm gauge is 28mm with 10.5mm wheels, 30mm with 12mm wheels. I can make these with wheelbases from 22mm to around 35mm. When wired together they run faultlessly and could pull a train of at least 10 coaches. I made this pair for an HO tram and made central pivots to mount them, I can do this to order. They can be slightly smaller than a Tenshodo which they will outlast as they have metal gears and bushes.

I sell these as Tenshodo Replacement types or general purpose made to order. Although rather fast they are good at low speeds due to a low revving N20 motor. These use a double ended motor and drive via 13:1 gear sets, the top picture shows one installed in a Recreation 21 Bow Frame Simplex.
