Since I like trains, and I've seen some excellent ones around in the past few weeks, I figured I'd have a go at building one!

I present to you the VR Class Dr16 Diesel-Electric engine.

This type of engine is primarily used in Northern Finland.

Seeing as I don't have nearly enough white parts to pull off the Red and White livery, I went with a Bley and Ornj scheme for fun. And because it looks pretty slick as a plus.

This is beautiful. And nice custom rails too.

I agree.....a wonderful looking engine and excellent custom rails 'Lego Junkie' and Brick On !

Good work, that's a prototype I haven't seen before. The scenic base adds a nice touch too,

[Spitfire2865]

Its probably a stupid question but does it have actual wheels? I cant see anything on the underside. And it seems a bit low to the ground.

You did a good job getting some tricky angles there.

It is really cool.

Wow, impressive engine.

Very realistic shape, and I especially like the cabin.

But I must also say that those tracks are rally nice as well.

Great to see a Finnish diesel !!

I've got a Finnish VR class SR1 in red-white livery in my Flickr account.

That's an interesting way of doing the cab.
