Lutz, thanks for the pictures. It will help!

If you plan it printing in 3-D choose the highest quality level available. The critical point are the vertical areas. The printing here is not complete difined and rivet details may not be printed or printed rudimentary only. Also the surface will become very rough here.
Better is you have a flat design in parts for the shell, i mean it is better in this case to print all sidewalls separate and mount them later on.
That may also be better for the cab.

Thanks for the input. I was also concern by the layering process artifacts. Breaking the model in flats make sense.

In this respect, do you think printing a cylindrical boiler would be a bad idea? I thought it could be printed lengthwise don't have stepped circular sections.

Some quick renders:
