I don't think I know of any classes with more than two inside cylinders...

The red item on the 2nd driving axle isn't a counter weight, but rather a crank. As stated it takes the drive from the inside cylinder. This locomotive has outside cylinders too, but it was common in the UK to have locomotives with just two inside cylinders. I believe the practice was started as placing the cylinders low down and inside the wheels helps with locomotive stability.

Actually it is the crank for the middle cylinder; the P2 being a 3 cylinder loco, two outside and one inside. incidentally 2001, Cock O' The North, as built, was the odd one out as it had Lenz poppet valve gear rather than Walschaerts.

EDIT: Ed beat me to it.

Whoops! Sorry, I get the two mixed up sometimes.

P.S. Love the P2, can't wait for it!

Azervich,

Will this be optimized for TANE? I like it, and I'm not even Australian.

Not sure what you mean by *optimized for TANE*, I've built it to the same quality as some of the VR locos built into TANE such as the D 92 Loco.

Cheers.

Nothing special here but it shows progress for the brewery.

New render with updated iron colors and striping, just for the heck of it.

 

[Azervich]

That looks very nice, could re-guage it to 5'3" and call it a D Class >_>

That would be quite the re-gauge...

G'day Azervich,

...as trainboi1 notes, it would be ..."...quite the re-gauge..."... but there is no way, Aaron, I could accept THAT locomotive as the VR "Light Line Class 'D'" 4-4-0, passenger locomotives built by the Phoenix Foundry in 1894 - not even in my WILDEST dreams...

I'm pretty sure Azza is referring to their predecessor, the Rogers 4-4-0 'American' (162 and 164; later D162/D164) rather than the later Phoenix D class.

However I don't think a 3ft gauge 4-4-0 would translate well to a 5ft3in 4-4-0 lol

G'day!



A no trespassing sign a friend suggested I make.

Cheers!

G'day S301,

...ah, now, the so-called "Rogers" locomotives would be a much better proposition for trainboi1's creation, Zec and I could easily 'live with that'!. I guess I missed the bit about them being reclassified as "D Class" locomotives during my reading...

G'day rastis,


...I guess I had best be careful and watch what I do, then, Jake, although you might want to check your spelling of the word "purpose"...

G'day!

Ah crap. Good spotting Jerker lol, I would've gone right past that.

Some street name signs.







Cheers!

Can you translate what those signs say into English?

 

[trainz89]

They are australian aboriginal names, i am sure if you googled them and you shall find an answer.

With Regards,
