The UP 4014 came through town again this year (2024) I thought it might be nice to print out the build plate for my wall, or if I evert get around to printing the fantastic 1/15th scale model from farscape1111, I can scale this down and add it to it. Model linked below

This one is full scale and has been sized based on a similar build plate I saw at the Illinois railway museum.
I've included both the complete STL file as well as a set of 8 cut up parts to print full scale on a Prusa Mini.
I recommend setting up your printer to do a color change to make the lettering pop. use black for the background and silver or gold for the border and lettering. Holes are sized to what I thought looks good. I don't know how big the'd really be. they look like they are riveted on in the photographs.
