Paul Lanski Posted September 27, 2016 (edited) Hi everyone, This will be my first post in the Train Tech part of the forum. I'd like to present a MOC that I created for someone else. We followed reference pictures for this 3 part loc, but due to availability of parts we decided to make it a 'blue train'. This is my first LEGO Train MOC. I hope you like it. Feel free to comment.

Ex cinno Posted September 28, 2016 Very good job. I think your pantographs are how an icing on the cake. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

1980-Something-Space-Guy Posted September 28, 2016 My favorite part is the front of the engine. I don't think I've ever seen that in an official set. Great job! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Paul Lanski Posted September 28, 2016 Hey guys, Thanks for your wonderful comments. I love how some of you really like the pantographs, because for me that was the hardest part to design. My client said that it would be OK to just leave them off, but I really wanted to try it. I took some inspiration from some guys here on the forum and elsewhere on the net, and came up with this solution. As for now, what I need to do is make it run smoothly though. On a flat surface it's OK, but due to irregular weight distribution it has issues getting through bends. So probably a second motor in it is going to fix that issue.
