The Rolling Piece of American History & 3D Printable Steam Locomotive. Fully 3D printable & battery powered scale model of 4-4-0 US eightwheeler wood burning locomotive
Bring the spirit of America's golden age of railroads to life with the CPRR Jupiter, one of the most iconic steam locomotives in U.S. history to life right on your layout. This G scale (1:22) 3D printable model is inspired by Central Pacific Railroad No. 60 "Jupiter", the legendary locomotive that took part in the Golden Spike Ceremony of 1869, marking the completion of the First Transcontinental Railroad. This stunning 3D printable model of a legendary steam locomotive isn't just a display piece — it moves, it pulls, and it impresses.
