I was giving a hand me down 3d ptinter it's slow but it prints good. So I thought I would print some short coal cars. Ended up printing 14 of them. I also took a short bachmann flat car and cut it down to 8 inches. Printed a water tank to put on the flat car and tow behind a steam engine that is going to pull the 14 coal cars. I painted all the cars up to look like they are rusted. If anyone has a Bachmann g scale saddle tank engine they would like to sell let me know please.
Thanks
David

Hi Davis,

You're certainly getting into the swing of things!! 14!!
 
Those look great! Did you use a model you found or design them yourself?

No I didn't write the file they were from a free down load on the internet.
The weather finally cooperated and I was able to test them on the track I ran them for 4 hours pulling them with a Bachmann 040 side tank and a slope back tender. 14 3d made coal cars a flat car with a 3d made water tank and a lgb caboose.
