The $46 USD Lego big boy steam locomotive Jie star 59005

Man I absolutely love this model! I paid $46 USD for it from Temu. Probably my biggest complaint about actual Lego is I could never afford the trains as a kid.
The scale is awesome on the upper end of “Lego” scale but actually probably more in line with mini fig and other Lego car scale. Can’t wait to motorize it. 4 motor power is going to be nuts!
Here’s a link where to buy, I’m not compensated for this. share.temu.com/LZyyOOOGLRA

If the wheels are still binding instead of free rolling, look up "quartering". The connecting rods on one side need to be offset by 90 degrees on the opposite side.

Thanks for this vid, I am almost finnished converting mine ,but with only 2 M moters and also the quarting of the drive wheels worked

The motor from your emerald night is an L motor, also known as large motor. it is too big for that set. the set was designed for M motors(medium). And it also has room for 4 of them. Also the drive wheel issue on the front can be fixed simply by swapping which axles the wheels are on. Front to back axle of the front wheels should be normal, flanged, normal, flanged. That way all 4 drive wheels are directly connected to the gears and also on either side of the drive shaft coming from the boiler for better weight distribution.
