## Description

The Steam Locomotive is a train that produces its power from a steam engine. The train must carry its water either in the locomotive itself or in an attached car behind the locomotive. The steam is produced by burning coal, wood or oil. Steam engines dominated railway transportation from the early 19th century through the middle of the 20th century.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Read the entire instructions first!
*by J***P on February 14, 2018*

Unlike other users, I had no trouble putting together the wheels and the body. The cow-catcher assembly was the most frustrating for me, and the final result is a bit crooked when viewed from the front. Be very careful how you grip the body in later stages, because the long thin rails along the boiler kept getting squished. The very first step has you bending the curve of the boiler around a form, but doesn’t give a size for it. Based on another reviewer’s recommendation of a 3/8” mandrel, I used a chapstick, but it proved a bit too big. If you look ahead to piece/step #11, you can see the groove the curve needs to match up with later. The instructions show a much deeper curve in the two arches that attach to the boiler top than is actually needed; look at the picture on the package, and the slots on the boiler. The small wheel rims (#14) I curved with a 5mm mandrel, which after springback was perfect. I rolled the pieces around the form with the tab end under the slot end, then bent the tab up with tweezers from inside the circle. I used the body of a mechanical pencil to curve the larger wheels in the same way. Assembling the wheels was the most enjoyable part of the model for me! Flat-ended tweezers and/or chain-nose jewelry pliers are essential. I also used wire cutters to snip the sheets apart, which helps in separating the pieces without bending—especially the long thin ones. I cleaned my fingertips with rubbing alcohol before starting and several times during, but still left tons of fingerprints. Just wipe them off the smooth pieces with rubbing alcohol at the end. I would give 5 stars if the directions gave measurements or better pictures about bending the various curves. All in all, a fun model and I hope the recipient will like it.
