I wanted a cute lil' steamer to gift to a friend of mine, but what do you give the person who has everything?
Answer? A custom train!
So I whipped up this lil' thing, ready for your wooden railway!

Support free! (Has some bridging, but if you can manage a benchy you can manage this)

Assembly is as simple as cleaning up & slotting all the parts together with a small dab of glue! For the wheels, put the side without the peg in first, then wiggle the other end around. This requires tight tolerances and will be frustrating! As a small reward for the discerning train enthusiast though, the wheels can be quartered, a neat little realism touch! You can also glue the cab & boiler down, but I've found gluing the boiler is un-necessary. The magnets need 2x 2*4mm neodymium magnets glued in, but I've also included a version with print-in magnets if you can pause your printer.

For the best feel, fill the inside of the boiler with scrap metal for weight! Trust me, it helps a ton!

Want a remixable car to pair with this? Well here ya go!
