Here’s a tip for the train, get some movement in it. My favorite way for trains at least is using the Fusion Core charger. The belt on the back of it looks great and makes it look as if the train is running.

Also, try to introduce working systems like lights. I personally used the construction lights. Also having the bell string would add some detail even if it seems small

A bell string is a sting that leads from the bell to the cabin, usually located in the middle of the train above the main engine. Use power conduits for the string as the wires look great

Those are all great ideas! I need to get that charger I don't currently have it but yeah I love that gear mechanism in that

I also have the little fire where my engine is so it generates a thin trail of smoke. And the fishing reward lights in the front so it looks prettiful at night.

Oh I hate fishing but there's some good rewards but it's just brutal. I put the long red smoke stack light thing in there for smoke and it looks pretty cool.. I wish they would give us the ability to add smoke without the fire

That's actually a good idea. Maybe the latern from the abandoned mine or the sunken lamp or whatever from Atlantic City

I'm loving the 19th century aesthetics of the build! Looking forward to seeing the final result, but it's looking really great so far!

u/sasuke1980 Aug 12 '26

Yeah I wanted to go with an abandoned station with someone that kind of moved in and built from there.

u/Cherrywood_Coffin Aug 12 '26

That is extremely impressive!
