Description
Being in the United States, getting replacement parts for British model locomotives can be challenging, un-environmental, or impossible. but I found that the Bachmann Percy chassis shares a similar wheelbase to the 0-4-0's, and the Bachmann Duck wheels are also similar in size to their wheels. so I made up new addons for a Bachmann Percy Chassis using a custom Motor Housing shared with my Castle In The Sky Loco ( https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:5240690 ).
this is designed to fit underneath hopefully any Hornby 0-4-0 shell. as part of this, I've included a back piece, and two front's with and without cylinders. there are also two versions of each piece, one for Percy wheels (15mm Dia) and for Duck wheels (16mm Dia). for parts, you will need the following

note, the gear connecting the motor to the drive gear is not sold on its own on their site. if the provided printed gear is causing problems for you, I can recommend the gear in the following link's assembly. the gear is shared between Bachmann Thomas and Percy.

if you choose to use Ducks wheels (16mm Dia) his wheels were only available as part of Ducks underframe ATM.

the only thing I couldn't find in Bachmann parts was part of many of the side rods. this should be easy to substitute with paper clips or small metal dowels. just find something that's about 1.2mm. 1mm could work it will just be loose.
