The Train Thread

[Chel]

An obscure craft, the train is rarely seen around the forums. But never the less, when it is seen, it is praised for its skill and detail. If you want to share your take on a railroad vehicle in KSP, then post it here!

Is just a locomotive cool?

Train, meet logic. You might want to get to know him.

How about some KSP trains, guys?

I can't seem to figure out how to build them well. If only we had couplers...

 

Wait a minute.

Old, but still a train. I was challenged to make a bullet train a while ago.... might need to actually do that some day....

Edit: Properly, as Azimech said, a locomotive.

'Bullet train'? That looks a lot like the A4 Mallard...

It is. Someone else on the craft page challenged me though after I made this craft to make a bullet train. Which I still haven't done.

Doh

 I think that's all I got.  I'd like to do another toy train set some day.  Some lil mountains, fancier bridge, more knicknacks.

 Retro-futurism overload.  Do more!

@Spacetraindriver will love this thread!

[Spacetraindriver]

Ah yes...I haven't played KSP in a while though...

These are (most of) the only ones in my save currently:

Here are some older ones.

While we're at it--Does anyone know if changing wheel configs to Autostrut: Grandparent is feasible/functional?

Maybe @Overland and I can both make flexible land trains again.

I'd like to circumnavigate Eeloo in one.
