Duplo/Brio Car (for Wooden Train Tracks) with coupler system

February 20, 2023
Description
Remix of original Duplo/Brio Car from timqui - train wagons compatible with Lego Duplo bricks and can run on all basic wooden (Brio) tracks.
In the original model, I missed the possibility to connect wagons to each other - so I decided to modify the model and add a Lego Duplo standard combatible coupler - so now you can simply connect them! :)
Conection between wagons
For simple printing, I decided to use a "male-male" coupler configuration of the wagon - it is possible to connect the individual wagons using a coupling part (in a separate file). I'm still working on a variant of the “male-car-female” configuration that would be easy to print. I hope to be able to add this configuration soon as well.
You can assemble a complete train - you can combine:
- Wagons with a coupler on both sides (for inserted wagons)
- Purple train in the pictures
- Wagons with a coupler on one side (for the first and last wagons of the train)
- Green train in the pictures
Also you can connect these wagons to other Lego Duplo compatible vehicles - for example original cars or my other model - Lego Duplo Benchy car-boat as you can see in the last picture of gallery.
Printing and asembling
- You can use PLA, ASA or PETG filament and supports are not needed.
- You will need a little of glue to join the wheel axels.
