Varney Aerotrain Build - HO DCC

I am going to print one of Darth’s when I get home today so I can compare the two…see which one will work best with the least obstacles. On the plus side, I just noticed I dont have to join the coaches like the locomotive, thats a plus :grin:

Sure!

So I took @Darth_Santa_Fe 's chassis and merged it with some seats from another chassis I found by someone named Stretch57. I think it looks great and have a test one printing right now!

Nice.

I bought my parts from Hobbytown of Boston, including passenger car trucks. I was very happy with them.

I think it came out pretty good. I have two more printing. Tomorrow I’ll cut some brass tube bearings and prime the interiors and coaches. Maybe work on the 4-4-0 a little!

Thanks, I appreciate that and the work you did making it.

Spending too much time on the seats :laughing:

They are a little rough but nobody will see much through the windows I imagine…

I have been working on this Aerotrain alongside my 4-4-0 off and on in between framing out an unfinished guest room in the basement. Waiting on some ESU pickups to arrive, getting the coach interiors squared away.
