These pics are of my newly arrived from shapeways Rail Car Mover.
The wheels are shown in the rail position.
Both road and rail wheels turn :thumbsup:

It does look good, painting it will be a delicate operation  :goggleeyes:

Then you just have the problem of fitting the V12 engine  :doh:  ;)

cheers John.

Must be easier than painting pigeons tho.
Not going there with the engine. In the depths of the underside is a clip that is used to enable the wheels to be set to road or rail. Will probably have this one set up on its roadwheels.

Shapeways 3d print - the document linked above is the later version I think.
