Oh dear.... That means every locomotive I've ever created is wrong.
Really no plow.....Hmmmm here's some SP units with one. It all depends on the railroads options at build up or its rebuild program for specific duties.

@Peter, looking wonderful; the detail is what adds the touchs to the model. Ever considered making a Lander bogie? As I may need it for my soon to be released M series carriages. I have drawings that could assist.

@trainfan2017, yes that is a 3ft 6in gauge bogie.

Anyways, a Queensland Railways B13 #79 taking shape - This locomotive is represented in its final form dated 1948 until 1951 when in that year it was sold to Gibson & Howes of Bingera Sugar Mill, Bundaberg, Queensland.

Hi trainz89 yes I can do a lander bogey. Just send me the drawings and I will see how I go.

Hi trainfan2017 yes it is a QR narrow gauge QR 54A bogey. They we used on several QR container wagons. One of them was the BAOY container wagon which I have updated but wanted to make a detailed bogey for it.

Quick question for the Blender guys/gals; What method is best for creating things like the grill above the fan, or the ladder - something that's a repeated pattern with a shape profile? I know you can Bevel a Path to give it the shape profile, but if you're building a long ladder that's going to be a very painful process getting all the rungs evenly spaced out. Is there an easier method?

Hey Peter,

nice bogey there!
But probably I'd use 4x the amount of edges for your wheels to let them look smooth. In comparison you used a lot more edges for the frame which has a much smaller edge radius then the wheels.
And maybe the rounded edges from the frame would be better done by bump…

Cheers
