These top-of-the-line speeders can only be afforded by the rich on Coruscant. They are built for comfort, not speed. The speeder can comfortably carry one driver and four passengers, but they can hold up to six passengers.

Collins Foundation P-51B Mustang "Betty Jane" during a high speed pass. Shooting at a higher shutter speed than i normally like for prop turners but wanted a fairly sharp image.

A small speeder bike, perfect for saving your legs a long space walk down the 100+ studs of a S.H.I.P. or around the many kilometres of a Stanford Torus orbiting a distant planet.

An LDD doodle, based on the 28326 wheel arch, brought to life in a spare moment. The machine is a bit grey, so true to Llwyngwril Systems' motto, of "Making Space Colourful", the bike is seen speeding along a bright piece of 1970s style spacecraft.
Looking at the photo, I realise that it's covered in fluff from the carpet. One of these days I'll build things on a table, like a proper grown up :D
The 1976 Tyrrell Project 34, or P34, is the only 6-wheeled F1 car to win a Grand Prix. It's an iconic design that I knew I wanted to build, even though I usually don't build professional motorsport cars. It really must be said that this model owes a LOT to rabasz's fantastic design, to the point where this is really more of a modification or iteration on their work than a fully original MOC. Huge shoutout and design credit to them!
Was thinking about the battle on Endor. If the Imperial army had a two-man version of the speeder bike, I reckon it would have improved the Scout Trooper's chances of surviving the chase.

A southbound Acela Express is taking advantage of the highest speed seen here at Princeton Junction, which is 150 miles per hour. Scenes like these will soon be a thing of the past, as the Avelia Liberty trainsets will enter revenue service in two weeks from today.
It's been a while since I have posted a Carmel shot, so here is one. A GP38-2, a GP40, and an ET23DCM hammer upgrade with 39 cars in tow, losing speed as they battle the grade. It appeared as though the rebuild was dead.

Norfolk Southern local K64 was rolling through Townsend and along Railroad Street with a pair of SD60E rebuilds.
The speed limit in this rural Delaware town is "strictly enforced" but I don't think the po-po will hassle this train.
Although, the locomotives are black, so all bets are off on the Eastern Shore.
NJTR 4213 shoves a morning inbound train toward Hoboken through SEAMANS interlocking (named for the Seamans Lead which diverges to the left in the distance). The train has just departed Wood-Ridge station on the Pascack Valley Line. 4213 was built 5/69 as part of a series of EMD "loaner" GP40s offered to railroads who returned GP35s and early-production GP40s to EMD for warranty work. Penn Central Later purchased 15 of these units. It is also one of only two GP40PH-2Bs painted in NJT's current "speed stripe" scheme that matches the Comet V coaches.

Any commuters from Beeston looking for an upmarket, if pretty brief, journey back to Nottingham need do no more than turn up around 7pm and hitch a ride on the High Speed Train (HST).
Seen here is unit 43049 as it rolls into the station with the 17.15 from London St Pancras (1D57), a train that terminates 4 miles down the track at Nottingham.
The shot is framed to include a view of one of the two station roof gable-ends where you can just see the MR emblem indicating its Midland Railway heritage. The other gable-end, situated behind me, shows the year it was built, 1847.
In fact the HST hasn't been doing too badly in the ageing stakes either. Built at Crewe in 1977 as part of set 253024, it was delivered to the Western Region with other members of the HST fleet charged with delivering a step-change in passenger service speed and comfort on the London to Bristol / Cardiff routes - one of British Rail's most enduring success stories. Since then it has been re-engined and, for more than 30 years now, has been working the Midland Mainline route between London and Derby / Nottingham / Sheffield. It seems strange to think that these units replaced the much loved Peaks on these services.
This frame was shot at 20,000 asa to try get a fighting chance of 'stopping' it.

Another speeder to add to the grid. It came together during last weekend's 24 hours of Spa-Francorchamps, a GTWC race that I rather enjoyed. So that's the name.
Engines were the first thing to get built, there's a little breakdown of them at the end of the photostream but it's nothing hugely complex. After that it was the front stabilisers and then I realised I needed to connect those parts to some kind of cockpit.
I ended up with quite an industrial-looking cockpit, using my favourite part again, but inverted this time and with the 4-wide speed champions windscreen on top, which was good to use. I have lots of them.
I'll obtain a couple of 2x2 semicircle tiles and switch them out with the round ones at the front, but aside from that this was just a fun little build that I'm happy enough with. Got a decent amount of Star-Warsy greebling in, so hopefully the racing bulls graphics on the wedges can be excused as Fambaas from Naboo, or some other creature from the lore!
There's a couple of pictures with this and the junkyard speeder too, so keep scrolling.
I meant to upload this earlier in the day, the reason I didn't is because I'm already working through speeder number three. This next one is red and certainly not a Ferrari...
Though it's already late November, the afternoon light still gives off summertime vibes as northbound Amtrak Acela train-set #2037 rockets down the express track and towards the Seabrook, MD, MARC station on the afternoon of November 24, 2017.
You might know this speeder from the rebel base on YAVIN IV from STAR WARS A NEW HOPE. It's actually a pretty old build I did in stud.io back then when I was at vacation. I can't exactly tell if I took inspiration from someone due to the fact that I built it in the past. Building this today after I discovered it into my files was pretty fun and I was glad I had all the parts at least in LBG.
I hope you guys like it!
