The other shuttle operating on the Sunday, from Thirlmere to Picton (not quite) and back, worked by 3526 and 3265. They are seen here climbing through Redbank, on the loop line, on one of the return shuttles from Picton.
Interestingly, the shuttles didn't operate even remotely close to Picton station, stopping before the train even came into view of either of the foot bridges (which we found out the hard way!)
Space Shuttle Endeavour flying over Austin, TX on its ferry flight to LA. I got this from the roof of my building (RLM) and I'm glad I decided to come in to work early in hopes of catching it!

Space Shuttle Discovery (Orbiter Vehicle Designation: OV-103) is one of the orbiters from NASA's Space Shuttle program and the third of five fully operational orbiters to be built.[4] Its first mission, STS-41-D, flew from August 30 to September 5, 1984. Over 27 years of service it launched and landed 39 times, gathering more spaceflights than any other spacecraft to date. Like other shuttles, the shuttle has three main components: the Space Shuttle orbiter, a central fuel tank, and two rocket boosters. Nearly 25,000 heat-resistant tiles cover the orbiter to protect it from high temperatures on re-entry.[5]

One of my favourite wild shots from 2024. At the time I took the photo, there were only 89 Honda Shuttles with an MOT in the UK in the final quarter of the year. Finding one parked on a backstreet would be a great spot, but managing to bag a genuine wild shot on the move was very fortunate to say the least.
A two-car R68 (S) pair (Westinghouse-Amrail, 1986-1988) leads a six-car train up the Brighton Line, passing Cortelyou Rd station. This train was heading to Prospect Park to swap out a shuttle train that had gotten tagged, so that it could be taken back to Coney Island Yard to be cleaned. Of note is that the lead motor, car 2924, is the last in the series of R68s.

Express Travel (Speke) Plaxton Paramount 3200 / Volvo B10M NXI9003 (Originally D444CNR) seen on the then recently re-vamped Liverpool - Manchester shuttle in the summer of 94. The new Coach Station would open *I think* later on the same year.
This project started out with me seeing some concept art by Ivan Tantsiura. The engines in particular really caught my attention. More boxy than what you normally see. So I decided to run with the concept.
The idea behind the shuttle itself was less scientific like NASAs shuttles, and more commercial. Carrying corporate employees to stations in Earth orbit. So the interior is more luxurious than you might expect with plenty of leg room. Even the cockpit has some measure of luxury, despite a lot of that being overridden with function The seat would have neural ports for the pilots to control the aircraft, something I couldn't manage on the model itself but the idea lives on in my imagination. Now, on the other hand, you don't want to waste money on too much luxury, so the rear cargo bay is bare metal with industrial warnings and hardpoints for securing luggage. Really embracing that military cargo bay feel. All in all I am really happy with the interior. I even managed to make room for figs!
I had just as much fun with the exterior. I wanted a super clean look that was reminiscent of our real-world shuttles, but still carried on more sci-fi design cues. The engines are an obvious start to that concept. Those were taken wholesale from the concept art I mentioned earlier, then modified and adapted to suit what I had in mind. The rest of the shuttle took shape from an early sketch I did of the top profile. And I swear I was using that leading edge design before the UCS Batwing was announced, that's what I'm saying to make myself feel better at least.
Obviously, another important part of the exterior is the color blocking. The orange came pretty naturally. It contrasts well without being too bright. And the part availability meant I had access to enough parts to really clean up the lines. The orange section on the underside makes me especially happy.
And that's really a good note to end on, I'm just really happy with this build. It let me have some fun and I think the final pruduct reflects that. As always, instructions are available on Rebrickable. rebrickable.com/mocs/MOC-89840/AsgardianStudio/cyberpunk-...

This quiet backwater of the Central Line used to be operated by experimental motor cars built by Cravens in 1960. These sandwiched pre-1938 'standard stock' trailers with clerestory roofs. These cars were painted silver to match the unpainted aluminium of the Craven cars. This is a standard stock trailer interior. Note the flourescent lighting - fitted to match the Cravens motor cars. Aug 1973.
Had a little fun build with some trans clear and trans light blue bricks to make a hologram of the Imperial Shuttle. A fun and challenging build as I was extremely limited to trans parts. Illuminated from the bottom to give it a glow without illuminating the surroundings.

The shuttle of Ming the merciless, as seen in "Flash Gordon: The Greatest Adventure of All".
Well.. this one will show my age. For anyone not familiar with the source material, this is an animated film released in 82'.. I watched this thing countless times on VHS.
I built this for an upcoming public display at the Raleigh Oak City Comic Con in April 2020. This year marks the 40th anniversary of the Flash Gordon cult movie... so, expect more Flash Gordon themed builds!
Kudos to my buddy Pixel Fox for the swoosh!

Major three-month roadworks have closed the main access road from the A487 into the village of Comins Coch, meaning TrawsCymru T2 and T28 services are currently unable to serve the area.
To keep the village connected with Aberystwyth, an hourly shuttle service is running between 07:00 and 18:30.

1:37 (minifig) scale orbiter
This is version 1.x of a space shuttle orbiter made with 100% LEGO bricks. The exact scale is about 1:36.7, and this was arrived at based on the brick-built hatch, which is the first component I built. It has many features including:
* retractable landing gear
* poseable elevons and split rudder
* poseable SSMEs
* opening payload bay doors
* poseable Canadarm and Ku-band antenna
* room for payloads (almost to scale) including the OBSS
* room for minifig inside spacehab tunnel
* detailed flight deck and mid deck with room for minifigs; includes removable roof and side panel for playability
* operable side hatch and airlock hatches
* removable forward RCS pod and OMS pods
* crew compartment lighting
* Brick built nose countours and crew compartment windows
In version 2 I aim to motorize some components and improve some sections including the vertical stabilizer (which is a bit wide) and OMS pods (which are slightly oversize)
It's really coming together now!! I have made 3 separate orders for this build and have exhausted the first two with the third still somewhere in the mail. This thing is taking a ridiculous amount of bricks but man it's gonna be worth it. I think the wing needs to be about 6 studs taller but maybe a smidge more. Once I get my last order of bricks I'll of course experiment and go from there. I also threw in a storm trooper at the bottom to show the scale of this thing. I have also tested it with the wing extended and it works... kind of. There is a little bit of bending in the wing but I have some 1x16 bricks coming that will hopefully alleviate that. However, I had a mishap with ordering parts and they won't actually be here for a while... no Imperial march for me :(. Oh well though I'm still excited for this one to be done, whats a few more weeks lol.

The Lambda Class Shuttle is one of my favorite spaceship designs with its birdlike look. I like the elegant curves and the transformative wing mechanism, furthermore the landing gear setup with just two legs is exciting!
With the introduction of all the recent new parts I was able to create the round forms and fluent lines of the original studio model.
It is difficult to find exact reference material for this ship, most of the blueprints and imagery, which are available online, are not correct to the original studio models. I've ended up using my own photographs I've managed to take at the amazing Star Wars Identities exhibition.
The model is a scratch build MOC, there are some familiar elements to the LEGO UCS model as well as Dmac's www.flickr.com/photos/dmaclego original design. My main focus was an accurate cockpit design (it’s still not perfect but I like my solution), the inclusion of play features, a full interior completed with PF functions, lights and more.
The model features:
- motorized foldable wings
- boarding ramp
- retractable landing gear
- detailed cockpit and interior
- turning canons
- landing lights
- working sublight engine
It is bigger than the official set with 94 cm in width and 102 cm in hight (on the stand). I've used up to 6000 parts for the model including an PF medium motor and 7 PF lights.
For the scenes I've used secondary builds, the Death Star ll and a midscaled Star Destroyer based on Brickdoctors www.flickr.com/photos/legoarts/ design both of which are adding several hundred parts. For the Endor scene I've used around 10000 parts. Even the planets used for the space scenes are based on LEGO parts (Planet series: Endor and Tatooin for the red Planet).
I'm happy how my build came together, I hope you like it as well! Thanks.
