Remotely controlled drive, steering, lift operation and lift folding.
Other features: suspension, cabin doors,sectional rear door and open-able sidewalls
As manufactured by the Best Company, San Leandro, California, around 1905. Some of these behemoths remain preserved, even operational. Best merged with the Holt Company (known for their tracked vehicles) in 1925, to become Caterpillar.
The Best traction engines are easyly recognized by their three-wheeled design and their upright boiler - the horizontal tank is a water container. Other than that, the design was pretty antiquated for its time, with no brakes, no gear shift, and a top speed of about 4mph.
The most prominent Best engine is "Old Dinah", purchased in 1894 for hauling borax through Death Valley. Today it can bee seen sitting at Furnace Creek, in a pretty desolate state.
Another preserved engine, the very one that inspired me to this build, is nicknamed "Susanpuffer" and can be seen in action here on youtube:

I was very impressed by new 42054 set so I’ve decided to motorize it. The chassis was completely replaced but the body is the same like in the official set.

The 1924 Targa Florio winner car was a 2 liter, 4 cylinder, super-charged Mercedes, with Chistian Werner at the wheel. This car is an early example of the famous Merceds Compressor series, culminating in the famous SSK and SSKL.
Unlike the usual white livery of the Mercedes racers, this car was actually painted red: Rumour has it this was a camouflage strategy to stop Italian fanatics from throwing rocks at the passing car, because it might be taken for Italian.
In the 1920ies, the race cars were actually driven to the race track on public roads like normal automobiles. For this trip, mudguards and license plates had to be mounted, to comply with traffic regulations. My model is shown in both configurations: as a slick racer, and as a roadworthy automobile.
Lego model with four-cylinder engine, two speed gearbox, differential, leaf spring suspension, steering, and operational hand crank.
Lego model of the British Class E side tank shunter introduced by Worsdell in 1886. A whoppig 120 units were built between 1886 and 1895. Minor changes then led to the J72 design. In 1961, the last J71 was finally withdrawn from service, after 74 year in operation.
I chose this prototype, because the design with inside cylinders and internal valve gear lent itself best to make an (almost) scale model with functioning pneumatic engine. The machine has serious torque, will start in any position (no dead center), and can already be operated with a single Lego hand pump. No pneumatic parts were harmed or modified during the process, just some silicone oil applied!
A small MOC built in homage to LEGO 8065.
Features a worm gear operated roll off dumpster. And thats it.
