The full NPRR ensemble! What will next years’ addition be…?

The target and visors are made from paper. This signal is in use as the "northbound" distant signal to YO tower. This signal is inspired by the signals used on the C&O.

Just about finished now.

Using a BBB large flanged driver with 4mm rubber tubing around the lower half to give an effect of a larger main driver. Driver is chain driven from the rear wheelset which is in contact with the track.

Closed coupling for engine and tender whilst in forward movement, works fine through curves and points. Coupling opens up more when in reverse

It's been awhile since the last update. Well here's some progress of my KTM Malaysia. Nearly there!

This is one of my older builds, which I decided to revive recently from being broken apart in a bin for way too long. I mainly changed up the front end to make it more prototypical to the real thing and also be a bit more well constructed, as I had issues before where the front would come loose. This should be resolved now. Also, it is still slightly bending down in the middle, which again is prototypical to the real thing, which had heavy batteries located in the middle of the vehicle beneath the floor, causing those cars to gradually bend down especially within later years of service.

1:45 scale Lego model of the Portuguese Siemens Krauss Maffei Eurosprinter

 

This model has around 2000 parts, custom lights, HA bricks M wheels, Buwizz 2.0, and two Powerfunctions L motors.

 

Also, I pay homage to the LLMTC guys by using an LLMTC printed brick on that boring, huge grey wall.

 

This is the most ordinary locomotive in Portugal, currently used in all Intercity Trains (where there is Electric Wire).

Just a simple build to use the last of my old tires and pass time while I wait on orders.

Lego version of the Schindler coaches from "CP Miradouro" Train, Portugal.

 

Each coach has 62studs long, full train has almost 7000 parts

 

Yes will make them IRL and they will be pulled by my mighty Diesel Electric CP1401

Really had to make a tenth car but really wanted a longer one, decided to make this a covered car I’d actually really like to rework the cover a bit on the ends.

Making some progress at last...

The frame is as realistic as possible, with all the prototypical cutouts. The leaf springs are connected by realistically pivoted compensating levers (a bit crazy, I know).

Orient Express train, powered by Lego train motors and controlled by PFx Brick. It has steam function as well (BigZ31 , many thanks for inspiration). Soon I will present video how it works and runs on rails.

My first GWR tender engine. A fun medium train build that I’m very jazzed about!

My next Railway Series LEGO models are the book-exclusive characters Wilbert and Sixteen!

Having already designed an austerity saddletank, they were mostly a case of building it again in a different colour - but there are some slight differences!

 

In truth, the dark blue of my own saddletank would better suit the 'real' Wilbert - but I have strong nostalgia for the ERTL toys of these two so I went with a lighter shade. I imagine it's how he'd have appeared in the Thomas the Tank Engine TV series.

Today I'm revealing my new Lego Ideas project - The Polar Express! ideas.lego.com/projects/d8f0433c-efdb-454d-9a7d-981df8d55ead

This train set would make a perfect Christmas decoration and it is so much fun to build and play with as there are some extra play features in there!

Please vote with the link above, make sure the yellow support button turned black and share with your friends as we need 10.000 votes to turn it into a real Lego set!

Stickers went on well for 20 Class. Both locos ready for Brickfest Singapore 2021.

Bridge stands for the Polar Express!

A bit late but I finally found the time to edit some of the pictures taken at Brick Show Baarn (The Netherlands) on March 8 & 9 this spring.

 

The quality is a bit shabby due to them being taken with my phone and the lighting is such a big hall being a bit dark.

 

As LLMTC we had a nice joint layout. Present were amongst others GrunnigerNL, UrbanErwin, Ties, Tamas, Joop, Stijn, Malik and Christiaan. (did I forgot someone? Nagging feeling..let me know!).

 

Due to me being late signing up I had limited space for Bahnhof Linderei forcing me to improvise. I left the front two tracks and some middle sections at home making it a tight fit.

 

Compliments to ErikEti and the rest of the organization, everything including the catering was perfectly organised! Big chance of coming back someday!

 

While there I met with a German father and son from Aken, had a nice chat but due to me being busy driving (sucking Bluetooth with the Buwizz devices) I forgot to exchange details. If you want to, feel free to pm me or send an email.

 

Apart from the station building I brought with me the following rolling stock:

 

Double Prussian G10 (Baureihe 57) locomotives for pulling the 25t Ardelt railway crane. Including a SSK flatcar with Henschel Brauns narrow gauge engine a further flatcar with lifting beam, a support car with coal and water and a caboose for the accompanying personnel.

 

Prussian P8 (Baureihe 38) in landerbahn colours sporting a gepackwagen (new model), combined post- and gepackwagen, Kaiserliche Postwagen (new model), prisoner transportcar, four-axled 1st and 2nd class compartment coach and two 3 axled compartment coaches.

 

Bavarian DXII with tank car, tank car for spirits and boxcar and my Siemens&Halske Osram boxcar

 

Big Thanks to HA_Bricks for providing me custom rods for the G10 steam engines and delivering them in person! Also thanks to JaapTechnic for the stickers.

 

In the pics you see both of the G10 at Bahnhof Linderei, The P8 passing GroningerNL his yard, the DXII underneath UrbanErwin his bridge entering Ties his heather scene, the Kaiserliche Postwagen stopping at Linderei and finally my new end section of forest with a small creek and the electrical transformer building.

 

Hope you enjoy!

 

A prototypical model of a ballast through plate girder bridge. This bridge is designed in a very similar manner to that of a real through plate girder bridge, mimicking the same structural engineering techniques and styles. This model has been designed with both cosmetics and strength in mind (I designed this model specifically for my own 1:38 scale trains which are considerably larger and heavier than typical LEGO trains).

Like any good rail truck WM10 is used mainly for everything. Here in the service for the Space Agency. NASA has never confirmed they had copied the design and WM10 solutions for their own use, unfortunatelly ;)

 

With these bookends it looks like a train is on its way through a tunnel in your books.

Initial shots of the little 20 Class I made over the holidays. Super pleased with all the little features and details that I could squeeze into the model. Am waiting for parts for the 'narrow gauge stand' that I'll be making. Yes you read that right.. the track is approximately 2-studs in width.

Also, am putting together an instructional video on how to make this little model. Stay tuned!

Milk is a common product of many country branch lines, and my LEGO layout is no exception. Loaded into tankers like this at a dairy, the milk is brought to the junction at Brixtol where it is attached to main line trains for delivery far and wide.

Ever since I saw the Hornby advert in my magazine from April I’ve wanted to recreate this pack. For me the colors are so pleasing and I’m very content.

A little passenger car modeled after No. 1002 of the Hespertalbahn museum railway, ex Pörtingssiepen colliery No. 2 (www.hespertalbahn.de/fahrzeuge/247-fahrzeugportrait-1002).

Wanted to show how I settled on my buffer beam design, and a few other fiddlely accents I’ve been messing with while I wait for tender parts

Tried some trimline to reflect a preservation livery I saw on 1450 when looking for references

It's about time I shared what I've been up to recently. This is my layout project which has been slowly coming along since the beginning of 2020..until recently. With the last lego show before I leave for college almost a month away, I've been cranking away at getting this great project done.

 

It should be mentioned that a decent number of my builds are hidden off camera, or at least have yet to be photographed and put online. Some make it to different platforms before others, but this is the first bigger reveal of this project and I'm excited to show you what it looks like when it's all done. I've been making so many buildings and models that I can't keep up with sharing them, so what you see in these photos will be shown in greater detail later on.

 

One of the big things the layout lacks however is a name for the village that it will be based around. The signal box sign says "Wickford", however I don't think this will be the final name. Any suggestions?

 

Many more photos to come. It's already looking spectacular and i can't wait until it's finished. Enjoy!

This locomotive was built by efferman and me. He made the whole drive and the bodywork for the "motors" and I made the drivers cabin and the deatils.

Open freight car in 1/33 scale. The waggon MOC was built in 2016 already, but has now been reactivated and equipped with new load.

It had to be a fast addition to the train station but suprisingly a lot od dark bluish gray bricks were used to finish it. I wanted it to have very "official" colors and I believe it fits pretty well to the role: police depot and post office by the train station.

 

The bus stup visible in the background is still not finished and I'm afraid I will be not able to finish it before Legor World 2013 in Copenhagen. The module will be there, no worries :)

MOC der Class 66 im HGK-Design mit weißer Front.

Inspired by the locomotives of the Iowa Traction Railway, specifically units 51 and 54.

I built it in red because I like red. Powered Up motor & Battery box.

First main line diesel-electric locomotive which made its debut in Malaya in 1957. A total of twenty-six locomotives were manufactured by English Electric Co at Vulcan Foundry, United Kingdom. In its roughly thirty years of service, the 20 Class hauled both the passenger express and freight between Singapore and Malaysia. All twenty-six 20 Class locomotives were named after flowers. The last 20 Class was decommissioned in the early 1990s.

 

This MR 20 Class model is controlled by a PFx Brick, powered by 1x PF L-motor with lights (2x headlights and 4x side lights) and sounds.

 

The toughest part hands down was the decals.. more specifically the lettering on the side which is 'Malayan Railways' in Bahasa Melayu. My decal shop had each letter made separately which means I had to meticulously place them along the body. The nose stripes were finicky to handle but sticks on perfectly.

 

With all these models completed, I thought it would be a good time to have a 'photoshoot'. Taken after the Singapore Brickfest 2021.

The prototype for my new model was built in 1927 by Breda in Milan, Italy, for shunting service on the 950mm narrow gauge lines in Eritrea (which was an Italian colony at that time).

 

The model is driven by a single L-motor. It features front and rear lights (from Brickstuff; separately controllable for the left and right engine side) and a Seuthe smoke generator.

All funcions are powered and remote-controlled by a BuWizz 2.0.

The model consists of approx. 1400 parts and weighs just over 1kg.

First use of new 30 inch green layout modules

Here's the first of two LEGO train design commissions for "train_bricks" on instagram - an OMB MH Danish railmotor! Designed to be built physically and use only official LEGO parts.

Here it is, the winner of the Brick Train Awards Best Structure for North America, the St James Frisco Depot. It took about three weeks of on and off building and lots of fiddling, kragle, and pieces.

Some history of the depot: The railroad depot at St. James, Missouri, used by the St. Louis-San Francisco Railway Company. In 1839 Samuel Massey met with other Missourians at a Railroad Convention in St. Louis and planned a railroad from St. Louis to the Maramec Iron Works in St. James. On July 4, 1860 the first train arrived.

I used the floor plans available to plan out the sections of the building, and had to use knowledge of Frisco depots during the era to get the correct colors of the depot.

Orient Express train, powered by Lego train motors and controlled by PFx Brick. It has steam function as well (BigZ31 , many thanks for inspiration). Soon I will present video how it works and runs on rails.

Got the first three of them here together for a group render
