About Great Smoky Mountains Railroad 1702 by Nicholas Howell
This is my model of GSMR 2-8-0 #1702. The model is powered by one Lego L motor in the boiler with a Lego battery box, PFx brick, and an XL speaker in the tender. The headlight and firebox are lighted with Lego Power Functions lights. I originally built this model in March, 2021, and since then I have modified it multiple times. I used a scale picture of the real locomotive to build it in 1:42 scale.
