When you want to animate a train or a rollercoaster and like me, you do not want to animate everything by hand, you can make a setup in Houdini that does all the heavy lifting for you.
It's not overly complicated to make such a setup but there are a lot of little things where beginners could get stuck.
This video aims to help beginning Houdini users to build a setup where not only there are multiple wagons on a track, but where the weels rotate in the right direction, and the wagons bank in the turns as well.
It's a 7 part tutorial where things gradually get more interesting and also a little bit more complicated.
In part 1, we create the rails and make a cube that follows the track.
In part 2, we change the cube for a front and a back axl and a cabin.
In part 3, we'll add the wheels.
In part 4, we'll use some magic to make the wheels rotate.
In part 5, there will be more then just one wagon.
In part 6, we elevate the rails and control the banking.
In part 7, we'll make some more interesting wheels.

The dropbox link to the files doesn't work. Please include the final if you can.

Thanks for the heads-up. I hardly ever used dropbox and I now see that you need a paid pro account to get it to work. I'll try google drive: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1RbLBS885pB33sxeH4S92u3n5oKjFTJTP/view?usp=sharing

I'll just ctrl+v my youtube comment: Best teacher in HoudiniLand so far, and I saw a lot of tutorials. Thank you for your time and effort.
Clear, concise, explains everything important, mini-project based,
as a Houdini beginner that frequently feels lost in the woods I would pay megabytes in gold for more learning material from this man.

This is great work Rudi.
I followed along with 20.0 and worked flawlessly.
Nice and clear.
Thanks mate.

Thanks for the kind words! All techniques are pretty much Houdini basics so I don't expect that to change any release soon.
