Ugears locomotive is driven by rubber bands and a gear array instead
of superheated steam, but otherwise its main mechanism looks and
operates very much like that of a real steam engine. Up close you can
see working asynchronous pistons and valves that transfer power to
the locomotive’s drive wheels through a moving system of rods, linkages
and cranks.
Small touches like a fully detailed engineer’s cab with retractable
step ladder, art-deco boiler trim, and open-up Tinder with coal doors
complete this beautiful reminder of a bygone era.
