Steam Locomotive Central Pacific N°60 Jupiter - 1:45 - MODELIK

Hello

For the new year I have again chosen me something complex.
It is about the famous Jupiter locomotive from the USA, which is now come out of Modelik in more manageable scale 1:45 This is a scaled down version of the 1:25 he bow that there are already longer. Another new feature is that the bow is now issued in digital printing, I am already excited about this as of goes, let's see.
In eight sheets is about 1600 parts distribute the wait for me, there are still 6 sheets with drawings, everything looks very good.

As usual with me, I'm not as fresh build of the factory or as a museum piece, but in used condition the locomotive.

Best regards
Kurt

I have some pictures of a locomotive in a museum in Sacramento, CA that appears to be exactly the same as this model (I have build the 1/25 version of the model) that I could post if you think they will be helpful.

Hi

On the parts 5, the first rivets (1mm) come, and the frame is shared with the 6 + 7 assembled.
The parts for the framework to 0.5 mm is pulled and covered with the parts 8

Kind regards
Kurt

Hi

On the underside the bearing pin is mounted for the front bogie,
and the whole is inserted into the frame.
Under the floor plate of the cab, the parts 11 are first installed,
before it is placed back on the frame.

Kind regards Kurt

Well, my wife asked me to make this locomotive ("it's so colorful and has huge chimney – gorgeous!"), so I'm looking here.

The strange thing about old american steam locos is that they don't seem to have frames, as if the wheels and everything are floating in mid air by magic.

Hello ,

@ Marcin :a warm welome to you and your wife , and kind regards from the south part off K&K Empire

@ Aldep : oh yes itīs looking very tender with the small frame .

letīs go on ...........

Parts 12, angle iron, and the filigreed leaf springs.

In the spring group you realize for the first time, which is reduced to the bow, because some parts were here already very small.
Yet a look ahead, the drive wheels, four in number.

Kind regards
Kurt
