This is just a quick OpenSCAD file that allows you to import the train letter .stl files from the awesome Customizable Alphabet Train by DaveMakesStuff and export a custom train.
Put the .scad file in the same folder as all the STL files from the original
Open it with OpenSCAD
Type the text that you want
Render and export the combined STL file
Rendering will take a few minutes.
If you've never used OpenSCAD before, there is a very quick guide for doing so below.
At the moment it only supports exporting in a straight line (you can still bend after printing). I may look into adding the option to curve the train if there is enough interest.
The Split function in the script is from The OpenScad Useful Library by roipoussiere
