ETR Topa Gal Focar
Topa Gal is a large steam locomotive with a 2-8-8 axle configuration and recycles steam for a closed loop. Currently a WIP.
The design brief was for raw pulling power in a budget under 100k.
The ETR train series is a train "company" based in Ireland developing futuristic trains that intend to be easy to use, over-engineered and optimised for Stormworks. They also incorporate the TCP standard which allows it to work together with other train "company's" that have TCP.
