Rose Candle

This design was inspired by steam trains rather than tractors, blending the power and charm of a locomotive with a steampunk look. The enclosed cabin, large roof, and bronze details reflect that influence, along with nods to the magical trains of The Polar Express. The result is a machine that feels built for both function and fantasy. 

EXTERIOR FEATURES

Overall Design: Fully enclosed steam-powered tractor inspired by steam trains. The body is black metal with bronze accents, giving it a steampunk look.

Lighting: Four forward headlights for visibility. Several exterior lamps help light the area at night.

Front Features: A push bar is mounted at the front to clear obstacles. The large front boiler door opens for easy maintenance. A small rose emblem sits on top of the boiler as a symbol of the (fictional) steam company.

Mechanical Details: Visible centrifugal governor, boiler temperature indicator, and steam whistle. The single-cylinder engine uses valve gear to control steam flow. The boiler has several gauges and valves for pressure control and venting.

Steering & Controls: The steering column connects by chains to the front wheels. Cables and rods lead from the exterior into the cabin to operate gauges and controls.

Rear & Roof: A ladder on the back gives access to the roof. A winch, powered by the wheel’s gears, is attached at the rear. There are rear lights, along with a mounted shovel and axe.

Other Features: Wooden platforms provide safe standing space for maintenance. An ash tray opening allows for ash disposal.
