This ultimately became a freelance design based on American rail speeders/motorcars. I designed this to resemble the one once used within Union Pacific. the most significant change I made was the sloped front. feel free to use it however you wish.
The one I designed was used to re-create a character from the more recent Thomas & Freinds series "All Engines Go". while not particularly fond of the new show, I like some of the characters in concept, such as Sandy. so I remixed them to have a more realistic basis. The decals I used are included. you'll need to find someone to print them if you wish to use them. I at least recommend the engine detail for the back. unless you wish to have it as a covered engine.
I also included models for 3 different pieces of small rolling stock. all of these were modeled off of the rolling stock found at the Northwest Railway Museum in Snoqualmie and North Bend Washington. If you are in the area, I recommend visiting the Depo and Education center, and if possible take a ride on the train for one of the best views in the area you can only get there (sit near the front-middle).
Note; this was made using the New Version of the Gandy Dancer. I do not know if the old version will work with it or not, feel free to try your own digression. if successful, please leave a comment.

Assembly
the rail speeder motorcar is easy. you have the roof where I recommend 1mm pins be cut to help align it and glue, and bend some to be handrails on top. If you can, try using handrail irons for the front and back. if not, you can use the same technique to make them as the ones on top. I also recommend cutting and bending small pieces to fit underneath next to the wheels as guards for small debris and rocks. on real ones, they are meant to prevent derailments due to how light they are. a small obstruction could easily derail the speeder.
the coach should be printed in 3 parts. 1 main body, 1 middle, and 2 ends. glue them together and you got the thing made. as a final piece, you may want to cut a paperclip (or 1mm rod) down to go through the top of the ends as a pseudo-backrest. for a hand brake, you can cut a pivot, along with some extra to wrap once around and feed through the top.the hopper is in 3 parts as well. the main body, top, and wheel. prin all 3 and should be easy to assemble. glue the top and main together, then use a 1mm rod (paperclip) to act as a pivot for the wheel. you may need a shaft collar on one end to keep it from slipping off. it has no purpose other than replicating the original artifact.
for almost all of these, I recommend using the wheel axle from the original Bachmann Gandy Dancer ( https://estore.bachmanntrains.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=68_181&products_id=1258 there is also a version with red paint on the ends if you want those)
for linking the models together, I recommend using paper clips for this purpose. you can cut and bend them to your liking.
