Phil very impressive printing, now I know for sure I don’t want a printer, you do it much easier, my wife get me trains

[@pzavis25]

Cool. Can you try to point me in the right direction for 3D printing? I’d like to try it, but don’t know how to start.

I actual kept complaining to my wife last year about watching everyone on youtube printing stuff for their layouts. She is the one who got me my first printer to shut me up.....LOL she got me an Anycubic Filament printer megaS. I think its a great starter printer and its pretty cheap. WWW.anycubic.com thats where I also bought my 2 resin printers--Anycubic Photon Resin printer. i've been using tinkercad free to design my stuff and also free slicer programs which get the design ready to 3d print. I jumped right in and had a few frustrating weeks until I started to understand what to do and not do and what the printers could and could not do. Hope this helps

Enjoyed!

Glad you enjoyed it. I've been enjoying sharing.

VIA’s stainless steel cars don’t have corrugation above the windows like your model has. To me, it looks a lot more like a Santa Fe streamlined coach.

[@philstrainlayout]

Prob true but I didn't have any via rail passenger cars at the time.....I have a bunch now though.

Nice job. I wonder how you will get the electrical connection leads up through the floor.

[@philstrainlayout]

there is a notch at both ends to feed the wire up and gets hidden in the corners which goes up to the lights.

Very good job. How much time did it take to print one of these interiors? I'm thinking on getting one of these Anycubic 3D printers...

[@philstrainlayout]

I think this one took about 4hours

[@jagc1969]

@@philstrainlayout I really like the result. It totally changes the car but ... two toilets side by side with no separation? :)

[@philstrainlayout]

@@jagc1969 didn't think anyone would notice that part....lol

[@philstrainlayout]

This has been version #1....lots of room for improvement now that I have been printing for a few years

[@Greatdome99]

Your interior is of a section sleeper, not a coach. VIA underframes are black, not silver You forgot to add Antimacassars (look that up. . .)

[@philstrainlayout]

Thank you

[@rictrusty]
