BDP Projects Update: Fusion of the past and the... not-so-distant past (present-day SP #2248 "Puffy" is in pieces).
BlockTalk Summary
The LEGO Ideas project "Puffy," a steam-powered firefighting train, is currently under development by /u/LewisDeinarcho. The project, which combines elements of the past with a modern firefighting theme, is progressing toward its final design.
The train set, currently at 1,272 pieces, is projected to reach approximately 2,500 pieces. The design includes a decently-sized engine, a unique tender, and various auxiliary equipment. The paint job is a custom design, and the set features lucky antlers.

The project is part of the LEGO Ideas S11 series, and the creator is particularly enthusiastic about this design. The combination of a classic steam train with a modern firefighting theme offers a unique concept.
