Description:

After 6 months, I’m finally done with this beast!

The Erie Railroad ordered this Triplex, but it was pretty bad, let’s face it. It would lose steam if it ever ran faster than 10 mph, and was relegated helper services. But for some reason, I fell in love with this locomotive, and have spent so long building this Engine.

Features:
Triplex Wheel Arrangement: All 24 drivers are powered!
Tri-Tone Whistle: Sounds pretty cool!
Ringing Bell: Also sounds pretty cool!
Detailed Cab Controls: Feels pretty cool to control!
Pressure Brakes: Brakes are applied by default, and can only be released with sufficient steam pressure.
Speed! Unlike the real Triplexes, this thing is powerful, reaching 90 mph!
Extra Realism! If you want this train to go a realistic speed, go find the hidden "Realism" switch.

Operation:
Should be pretty simple! All you have to do is:
Open the Damper. This allows more air into the firebox.
Ignite the Firebox. (The key next to the firebox.)

The Firebox and boiler temperature will now start to rise. If you don’t want to worry about regulating the boiler, toggle the APR (Automated Pressure Regulator) button near the right side window. This will control all of the internals, and will do all of the hard work for you! Just make sure you don’t forget to fill the boiler with water!

To start moving:
Release the Locomotive Brakes.
Move the Reverser into the forward (or backwards if that’s the direction you want to go) position.
Open the Regulator, and enjoy!

Do note, this is a large locomotive. You will need the large build zones or a modified workbench to spawn this.
Also, because of the stupid steepness of the hills in this game, this train may explode and bottom out. It should be able to get anywhere, but if you are worried about explosions, turn vehicle damage off.

Don’t steal, and enjoy!
