Making A Toy Train Engine

Making a Toy Train Engine is fun. This one is special.

My father was a locomotive engineer with the L & N Railroad. He worked for the for nearly 29 years. I really enjoyed your video. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with me.

[@CipsWoodChips]

Howdy J Lathem! I am glad to hear you found this video enjoyable. This was a fun video to do. Cheers.

[@binnsbrian]

I also thoroughly enjoyed this video. Adding the third set of wheels really gave it a train look. I think where and how you attached the light is problematic. It could come off and become a chocking hazard. I think it would have been better to drill and glue it into the front of the boiler. Kids can be tough on toys. Yours looks like it will last for years.

Hi Cip, I'm not into model making, but thoroughly enjoyed this video, and a beautiful job you did with it my friend. Take care Mike

[@CipsWoodChips]

+Mike Waldt Thanks for watching Mike. I meant to add a few words about UKIWS. I will try to do it in next video. The wife and I are talking about going. Cheers...maybe we will see you there.

Hi there, I am a train buff and thot you might like to know what you're doing. That 'thing' on top of the boiler is the sand dome. All locomotives need sand for their wheels for traction on the rails under adverse conditions. The 'curved' thing on the front of the boiler is the boiler door and the little knob is the number plate. Have fun. :-)

[@CipsWoodChips]

Howdy Allen! Thanks for the information. That is very interesting. I use to have a bunch of N-scale and a few HO engines and cars. I always liked train. I rode more trains in Europe than here in the USA. Cheers.

[@ScrapwoodCity]

Beautiful piece!It came out really great! Good job!

[@CipsWoodChips]

+Scrap wood City I always try to made something special for Christmas. The video ran a little longer that I like but I got it done. Thanks for watching. Enjoy the holidays.

[@leecallaghan2997]

[@CipsWoodChips]

Greeting Lee. If you would like a PDF of the project send me an email at: [e-mail]

[@oaksho]

Lovely job Cip, the train looks great I'm sure it will be played with for many years to come. Have a very merry Christmas. All the best Tony

[@CipsWoodChips]

+oaksho Thanks Tony! How are those pens coming along. Do make special pens for Christmas? Enjoy the holidays. Cheers

[@55dougie]

[@CipsWoodChips]

+Doug Korn Hello Doug! Around the holidays I like making toys and this was a fun one. Thanks for watching. Enjoy the holidays.

[@delhorler5340]

Great job I am going to make that train for my grandson for his birthday. Thanks for sharing and keep the videos coming

[@CipsWoodChips]

Howdy Del! Have fun. Cheers.

[@yaseerawaqas9083]

This is good but because I cannot make them at home, can I get something like wooden tankers, trailer, and rescue ladder? The model should be uniquely assembled and the toys must look elegant.

[@CipsWoodChips]

Hello Taseera! I do not make these to sell. Kind regards.

[@woodsniffer]

I like the Wheel Build Excellant.

[@CipsWoodChips]

Howdy Phil! Thank you for your kind comment. Cheers
