Locomotive Annie Posted November 11, 2012 It just gets better and better. What an amazing locomotive build, - I watched the videos and was seriously impressed at how well it could run on L track curves. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Teddy Posted November 11, 2012 Dear LEGO Train 12 Volts, I like your BR22 a lot and the piping adds additional realism to the train. My main question in regards to the piping is why it bends downwards when it comes closer to the cabin? Kind regards, Teddy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rail Co Posted November 11, 2012 Why do you have to make me so Jealous!? You have some really great designs and you are very creative (cutting pieces and putting pieces just right for details) and I just hope to see instructions one day for all your BR locos . Great Job, Rail Co Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cale Posted November 12, 2012 As some one who has attempted building a working Walschaerts valve gear I really appreciate the engineering that went into your model. I don't personally like to use modified parts if I can help it but your engine makes a pretty strong case for their use. It's a joy to see that valve gear in motion. The rest of the engine is pretty sweet as well. Nicely done! Cale Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
zephyr1934 Posted November 12, 2012 Simply fantastic, the piping is just icing on the cake (incredibly detailed icing that is) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

legotrainfan Posted January 30, 2013 (edited) Oh my goodness! Those locomotives are simply beautiful! And there is no problem when they are on curcy track? Can they go through curves? And how fast are they actually? Edited January 31, 2013 by legotrainfan Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pief Posted July 13, 2013 I saw your video of the valve gear and I directly started building my own and now that I saw you used some costum pieces I thought that's why that sticks out but great locomotive looks very smooth Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mfeldt Posted June 30, 2015 May I ask what are those pieces that connect the wheels to the wire-rods? Techic or mindstorms elements? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JopieK Posted July 8, 2015 May I ask what are those pieces that connect the wheels to the wire-rods? Techic or mindstorms elements? They are "flex" items, originally Technic indeed (from the ninetieth I think). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
