Description
And here’s another new mini train diorama — we’ve already reached diorama number 12!
This time, I chose China as the theme!
The train passes by the Great Wall of China and Tiananmen Square (天安門廣場 / 天安门广场) with the Great Hall of the People(人民大會堂 / 人民大会堂), and ends at Beijing Main Station. For the train, I took inspiration from the Qinghai–Tibet Railway.
I hope that’s the correct name.
I based everything solely on reference images — of course, the scales aren’t 100% accurate, but that’s intentional.
As with the previous dioramas, you can turn the hand-wheel on the outside to let the little train drive forward.
The new Qinghai–Tibet Railway is compatible to the previous designs.
All printed parts are designed to get an good result with a 0,4 nozzle and with minimal color changes to reduce waste.

Following PLA Basic Filaments are used
Silver
Brown
Black
Beige
Mistletoe Green
Bambu Green
Yellow (Train)
Other colors are possible of course, look what you have in stock.
I think it could be easy done with single color, if you want to color from hand.
I printed with a 0,4mm nozzle! Iam very pleased with the result, but you can try a 0,2 nozzle as well.
You need 6pcs round 4x2 magnets for the functional assembly.
I hope you like this little project.
