Ugears "Steam Locomotive with Tender" Model's Description

Steam Locomotive with tender UGEARS 460 accommodated all the technical solutions applied in the previous models. This model is the largest one, rich for details, so to say "the most fancy" from the entire range of UGEARS mechanical models.

In the cabin of the locomotive you can open doors and upper hatch. Inside you can see the driver space and some equipment. Just below the cabin door there is a retractable ladder. We tried to make the valve and the piston to operate as realistically and asynchronously as it is possible. They open view of the model allows to understand the principle of the steam inlet into the chamber of the steam engine locomotives.

Three movement modes:

In the neutral position you can roll a model and see the movement of pistons and drawbars on wheels. In the «forward» and «back», special ratchets on the large rubber engine start working. Pre-blocking the transmission to the wheels by lever near the driver’s window, you can start a model with the key, which is located behind the cabin.
