K27 Steam Engine - Train/Locomotive - Garry's Mod

(Comments are MUCH appreciated!!) Stop by my server @ 216.245.218.176:27015 -=GRW=- Build Server - Train Build! - LOCOMOTIVE CREATED BY TBOY205 & MEATBALL SUB (a.k.a. meatball1) - Thanks to Meatball Sub for helping me with some details as he drives this type of locomotive IRL. I am very close to completing my K27 steam locomotive! I just have to add some more stuff to the siderods for a more realistic look! The locomotive runs on E2 and requires at least two people to drive it. An engineer and a fireman, along with a brakeman to set the switches and the brakes. The Engineer operates the locomotive and blows the whistle (It does have a custom whistle sound that force downloads on my server). While the fireman rings the bell, shovels coal into the locomotive and allows water to enter the boiler to keep up pressure. If pressure runs out, the locomotive will no longer run, even if there is still coal & water in the tender. The tender is equiped with holographic, depleting coal. Its max speed is 45 MpH, which is very fast for a steam locomotive. Its normal cruising speed is 15 MpH. Prop Count - 470 Custom coaches are currently being made. --- PROTOTYPE --- [img]http://www.nikki-schmitz.de/ws_DSCN2513.JPG[/img] [img]http://media-cdn.tripadvisor.com/media/photo-s/01/54/4a/d8/durango.jpg[/img] [img]http://www.freewebs.com/drgwk36/487ten.jpg[/img] --- MODEL --- [img]http://img198.imageshack.us/img198/3572/troutback127100005.jpg[/img] [img]http://img689.imageshack.us/img689/162/troutback127100006.jpg[/img] [img]http://img202.imageshack.us/img202/9067/troutback127100009.jpg[/img] [img]http://img338.imageshack.us/img338/493/troutback127100028.jpg[/img] [img]http://img109.imageshack.us/img109/1659/troutback127100029.jpg[/img] [img]http://img19.imageshack.us/img19/9412/troutback127100030.jpg[/img] [img]http://img39.imageshack.us/img39/9058/troutback127100031.jpg[/img] Cab - [img]http://img198.imageshack.us/img198/8156/troutback127100035.jpg[/img] [img]http://img341.imageshack.us/img341/3143/troutback127100040.jpg[/img] Engineer's View (E2 Cameras are also placed out the window which you can look around with to get a better view.)

[img]http://img190.imageshack.us/img190/3563/troutback127100033.jpg[/img] The Doghouse was used by the brakeman as a place to rest when not braking the cars. In the olden' days, trains didn't have airbrakes that you can just push a button and they all apply. The brakeman was signaled by the engineer blowing the whistle to apply & release the brakes by hand. By having the doghouse ontop of the tender, it gives the brakeman easy access to the roof of the cars to set the brakes.

If you have any sugestions I would love to hear them. Please note that I am NOT 100% finished with this locomotive. Do not tell me something isn't materialized, I KNOW. Thanks to ... Meatball Sub - Helping with details - mainly cab. BJK - tr_outback map Marine_Wolf/KeronWolf - Inspiring me to build trains in Garry's Mod and giving me someone to drive trains with.

Best train I have seen in garrys mod. Finish it.

Excellent job! You never cease to amaze me when it comes to Gmod and Trains.

Awesome and really detailed as always! I remember I once got some steam locomotive to 125 MPH in some train simulator :)

This looks even more amazing than when you were building it! I didn't even recognize it. Very good job!

Nice, accurate, sexy.

Nice Job. Keep it up.

You should take a side-view and top-view of it too. You choosed weird angles for taking photos. But from what i see on the pictures, it looks very nice and very detailed.

I actually took some pictures like that but when I had them uploaded to a personal link, those photos hardly got any views, so I decided to not publish them.
