Would you still love your transmission if it was a worm gear?

Every time somebody at work mentions needing some sort of electric insulator with high thermal conductivity, I chime in to suggest making it out of 💎 SOLID DIAMOND 💎 to the point where they've started preempting me to say that they're not buying a hundred thousand dollars worth of 💎 SOLID DIAMOND 💎 as soon as they see me start to perk up

GWR tank engine mention!!!

How about some more?

We love making up fantasy railways. Wizard towers need rail access too. How else do they get all those reagents?

I wonder if anyone has ever informed Tumblr about the concept of the "Freelance" in model railroading?

It's basically OCs but for railroads. If you don't have a specific prototype that really does it for you, it's a time honored tradition in the hobby to go off and make up your own, oftentimes with *elaborate* lore. They can run the gamut from extremely serious, plausible, extremely well researched railroads with routes mapped out on Google Earth, to the John Allen school of "that's a fun idea, ship it" (see also: Emma the Organic Switcher)

It's a really fun little corner of the hobby

i think i have an new favorite gadgetbahn

Fantasy setting with magic neatly organised into elemental spheres, except each magic-using culture disagrees with all the others about what the primordial elements are, what their associations and correspondences are, and even how many of them there are. Spells always interact with other spells from the same magic system as though its elemental theory is complete, consistent, and correct, but when spells from two different magic systems come into contact it all goes a bit sideways, often in ways that require flowcharts to explain. Like, you think Ground Type vs. Rock Type is bad? There are five separate, mutually exclusive spheres of magic all called "Fire". The Sylvan Confederacy's "Water" magic explodes on contact with the Empire of the Five Pillars' "Water" magic and nobody knows why.
