Am I allowed to ask rigging questions here? I've got this steam locomotive I'm making and I want to make it as easy to animate as possible.

yeah, you can use a spline based "chain" rig for stuff like this, works for chains, tank tracks or any thing where you need something to follow the next. the trick to the rig is to have helper objects act as the pivot points which are path constrained to the spline.... then each item in the chain is then position…
