Wishlist Freight Misconductor on Steam!

Behold the newest Gymnomi Slime locomotive to enter the fleet... the O12-4/15/8 narrow gauge diesel-hydraulic road switcher.

Despite being only a medium sized loco for the narrow gauge, so quite small overall, the prime movers (diesel engines) guzzle too much fuel. They'd go through the oil rations in a week, and they're too big to be reasonably converted to woodgas burners like some of the smaller diesels.

As a result, these locomotives will only appear in-game as static props and unpowered cars to be shunted by the player's advanced steam tank engine.

Such is life during the oil crisis.

Here is my model of Devious Diesel!!

Unlike Oliver and Edward who use Lego for their splashers Diesel is 100% handmade, that said like Oliver I cut all of his pieces using a handsaw before glueing and painting them.

For paint colours I used DecoArt black, bright red, slate grey, Amish grey, Copenhagen blue, white and pine needle, you may be thinking “why the hell does a black and grey engine have so many colours?” The reason is because of the updated NWR logo on him, Daisy will be getting the updated logo at some point later on.

At some point I decided he needed some colour so I scratched the silver rods and wheel rims and made them red (the silver rims on most of my models are meant to represent the side rods in motion though for rolling stock it’s purely a stylistic choice) with that we conclude how I made Diesel, the goals for after recovering from burnout is to finish Percy and Mavis (Mavis is the one I will be doing first since I’m on a bit of a diesel kick)

Before I go here’s a photo of him covered in stickers that my friend put all over him.
