UGears Locomotive outran its competitors in all the criteria and took a much-deserved first place in acclaimed categories. The organizers of the competition appreciated the complexity of the design alone with relative simplicity of construction, resemblance of the model to its real-life prototype, accuracy and precision of parts, consistency and clarity of the assembly instructions, and most notably, the ability of Steam Locomotive to move independently, through the interaction of strain gauges, wooden gears, levers and various drives.

The Locomotive model is capable to run a distance of about 5 meters with a single wind up. It produces forward and reverse movement and is able to go up and down an arch bridge. Though complex, the construction process of this model is a lot of fun: all the parts are precut and ready for assembly without any additional tools or even a single drop of glue.
