Crafting Recipe Proposed:
Upgraded Steam Engine
Materials Required: 1 Steam Engine, 4 Dated Plates, 2 Dated Frames, 6 Old Gears, 6 Old Screws, 6 Old Coil
Posts Required: 1
A Steam Engine that has been upgraded to a larger size and a higher efficiency output. While it in and of itself isn't that much greater of an upgrade, it is meant to be a preliminary step towards higher-tiered engines.
Explanation: This is basically something that a Level 11 Mechanic could make just by using the Quality Control ability, disassembly and reassembly are possible due to this. An expensive, yet necessary, upgrade that will bring the future of trains into reality.

Crafting Recipe Proposed:
"Caerbannog" Steam Engine
Materials Required: 1 Upgraded Steam Engine, 6 Dated Plates, 4 Dated Frames, 2 Dated Plugs, 12 Old Gears, 12 Old Screws, 9 Old Coil
Posts Required: 1
A Locomotive Engine created by Mechanic Hirosame, in honor of his friend Caerbannog. This Steam Engine is designed to move along tracks at a steady pace of up to 50 km/h or 31 mph. This type of train is designed to move cargo or passengers across a long distance while maintaining speed and efficiency. It will use coal or some other resource to power the engine in order for it to move. Can be powered by magic or magitech in later iterations. This is effectively the first locomotive made ready for use.
Explanation: This is the first locomotive engine that will be used. It uses coal and steam to power the train's machinations. While it is a train, this is only the engine car, and maybe the coal car that goes behind it (debatable). This craft should be made easier with the Quality Control skill that Mechanics acquire at level 11. The Name "Caerbannog" is a reference to the player Caerbannog, in thanks for the 1,000,000 donation for attending the wedding, and an immortalization of her name and her addition to the site as a person. That being said, the main reason why this engine is expensive in parts is because it would need to be well manufactured and cared for in order to maintain usability, especially with the potential of monsters attacking it on the way. The other reason for this is because that will not encourage players to create their own Train Line.
With that being noted, I would like to merely have this put up in the research/crafting board as a past accomplishment, and in some way in the RP to allow a certain sect of People of the Land to manufacture and control the usage of the trains. All I ask is that I be allowed to assume the role as conductor in threads, if I'd like to incorporate that somehow in a thread.

Crafting Recipe Proposed:
"Kumori" Steam Engine
Materials Required: 1 Upgraded Steam Engine, 8 Dated Plates, 6 Dated Frames, 4 Dated Plugs, 16 Old Gears, 16 Old Screws, 12 Old Coil

A Locomotive Engine created by Mechanic Hirosame, in honor of his friend Kumori. This is an experimental engine, not meant for being on the tracks for now. Should the Caerbannog Engine work well, and further advancements are made, the idea is to have this be the base for said advancements. The engine's capacity can go as fast as 70 km/h, or 43.5 mph, but at the cost of more coal or other resource being used at once. While inefficient, it is meant for being a base for advanced methods of transportation. Can be used to transport items, but at high costs.
Explanation: The second type of locomotive engine that can be used, but is meant for advancement. It also uses coal and steam to move and animate, but it uses higher amounts of both. This train will most likely require a coal car behind it, or else the train wouldn't make it very far. It should be easier to make with Quality Control, but the amount of parts and the cost would require a bit of a higher level to do it. The name "Kumori" was also taken from the lovely wedded couple, and as thanks for the donation as well. This engine is even more expensive than the last because it is meant to be upgraded, and also not to be manufactured by players. It must also be able to withstand wear and tear, alongside its more efficient counterpart.
As of This AP Claim, I will be a level 29 Mechanic.
