vedosololego Posted March 28, 2015 Posted March 28, 2015 (edited) Hi everyone Christmas Train22 by Cristiano Grassi, su Flickr This is my version of the Christmas Train and i think it will be perfect in any Winter Village projects and dioramas. It is based on the Constitution train set locomotive. When I project this train I think about Holydays and to what I wanted to find under my Christmas tree when I was a child. I hope you like and comment it. If you want you can also support this project on Lego Ideas following the Link. https://ideas.lego.com/projects/95546 Thanks to all.

LEGO Train 12 Volts Posted March 28, 2015 Posted March 28, 2015 Bellissimo ...very nice MOC. This is the third amazing creation from you! Quote
dr_spock Posted March 28, 2015 Posted March 28, 2015 Nice work. The snake in the smoke stack may keep people who are afraid of snakes from bringing your model in their homes. Quote
cgarison Posted March 28, 2015 Posted March 28, 2015 #supported Very nice details and a great example of what I want my next 4-6-0 to look like. Awesome! Quote
Daedalus304 Posted March 28, 2015 Posted March 28, 2015 Who knew that the Constitution engine could be modified into such a colorful christmas train? A very neat cross between the constitution and the old holiday train. I do like the train cars with the trees and presents, very festive. Quote
Commander Wolf Posted March 28, 2015 Posted March 28, 2015 Is this actually modified from a Constitution train? It does look like something Lego would make. My only concern would be the wide spacing between the wheels under the cars, but that doesn't affect the overall look and feel. Nice. Quote

It does look a bit like Constitution Train Chase engine now that you mentioned it. Quote
vedosololego Posted March 29, 2015 Author Posted March 29, 2015 (edited) Yes, I started from this base to build it. Now i have modified the description. Edited March 29, 2015 by vedosololego Quote

It is really hard to not have some of the style from the Constitution when building a 4-6-0 Lego locomotive. The only way that I was able to avoid that "lifted design" look on my 4-6-0 MOC was to build the train in what I call my "Quasi-8" wide format which is a 6 wide with train with 1 full stud of overhang on each side. I really should get some pictures of that MOC on this site now that it has been finished for 3 months. Edited March 30, 2015 by cgarison Quote
