Hey ho,
at my playground i often use the train to transport something, smal Tanks ore other stuff.
Because of space, i use 45mm LGB tracks.
Alos i converte them to RC.
Steamtrain needs a battery waggon, the diesel is in front big enougth for an smal lipo.
But...the locos are mutch to smal, so i make the decision to take the tracks like smal "Grubenbahn" tracks.
So i make 2 locos, both based an LGB.
A smal steam train, and a diesel one.
The steam train original:
My conversion, just a bitt higher, that 1:16 scale people can use it
And the battery waggon:
other waggons:
And on the playground, in russian hands
And the second one, the LGB diesel loco. Original to low for 1:16:
So pump it up:
On the playground:
And here are 2 videos, the steam train:
And diesel:
Both works pretty good and looks mutch better then the smal LGB once.
Greetz, Andy

You have a great life, Andy!. What a perfect place to 'get away from it all'- that is, the Sturm und Drang of modern living.
