Open platform with H0 functional gateway

Open platform with H0 functional gateway

The bridge of the open platforms on my models is printed in the raised position. But if your printer is accurate enough, it's possible to print the moving gangway, provided you print with the thinnest possible thickness and as slowly as possible.

This gateway replaces the gateways supplied with the models.

I've imagined a tortillard (Epoque III), slowly traversing the European countryside on very long routes, serving a bunch of little stations (of course a Europe without borders and without wars), a bit like New World trains. Of course, it had all the amenities known at the time.

In the near future, I'd like to add an RPO mail van (chargeable) and a caboose (free), as well as other types of passenger and freight cars. If you have any ideas or wishes, please let me know in the comments or in a private message. The aim is not to reproduce a train that once existed, but a train that might have existed. If you publish models related to this project (same era, same curve radius and same width of materials), let me know in the comments and I'll add them to the list.

The basic models are free of charge, specific layouts are not.

Just in case, I'm sharing my Gcode for my KP3S or KP3 printer, feel free to suggest corrections in comments

If you print this wagon, please upload your photos in a Make on Thingiverse (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:6379466/make) or in Make on Cult3d: it's my best reward.

And, if you'd like to help me pay for the PLA used to prototype this scale model, I'm accepting donations at buymeacoffee.com.
