284 7U Thunderstorm Locomotive

Description
This is the 2-8-4 Thunderstorm. A large heavy goods locomotive. this locomotive was built with detail and optimisation in mind. Although very optimised it is still recommended you use lower physics for pulling extra carriages. It uses NO MODS.

It has a single level 3 gas engine and 6 sets of 4 level 4 rockets. 3 sets for forward and 3 sets for backwards. the 3 green switches are for each set of forward rockets and the red ones are for backwards. the train pulls well using rockets only but the engine can help if its a little slow. you can use the combination of just rockets or engine and rockets however necessary to hold a optimal speed for your railway. Engine is also easy to adjust for those heavier loads.

The specific controls:

1-Horn
2-First stage forward
3-Second stage forward
4-Third stage forward
5-First stage backward
6-Second stage backward
7-Third stage backward
8-Lights

The train turns well but tile railways (7U/ standard SM wide gauge) are best suited.
Not only that but some tote-bot heads replicate the piston sounds and it has an awesome whistle. I worked very hard on this, please enjoy. Also if you have any epic train worlds friend me :D

Alright, but I will credit them, but however I have a Scrap Mechanic break ATM because of Stormworks, so I will just get bored with SW first up, and then I might do a rebuild of it.

Hello. Honestly i didn't see your comment until now. All my creations are open for the public to do whatever they like.

G'day! I know you'll probably say no, but may I rebuild this? (and share it with permission) and a possible class name being the "Tomoco/Sal Railways Co SL284AU"

was gonna say "tomoco trains international"
could totally make that a sub brand for the trains
