2A-Rail Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 Whilst I've been on holiday, I've managed to pick up one of Bachmann's charming "Pegasus" train sets. Taking it out of the box and toying with it, I feel the locomotive could certainly be the basis of a good few conversion parts. Checking into the prototype and finding that examples did work in all over the world, I quite like the idea of pushing the donor. First thoughts are alternate tenders, cabs, chimneys and bufferbeams to make a plethorea of variants, but I'll need to toy with these ideas further. One problem I have had is finding prototype pictures, although a google find did bring the Birmingham and Gloucester Railway example, so I have the first one sorted out at least. Hopefully with the next update I'll have the CAD files and plans sorted out, had a few test items made with Shapeways so I'm not entirely new to 3D printing.
