Redimus Posted April 30, 2015 Posted April 30, 2015 (edited) Really nice! I like how much the livery looks like the livery I grew up with, Network South East's colours: (Edit: Also, how boring was this photographer? There's a Merchant Navy sat at that station and he's photographing a run of the mill southern electric!) Edited April 30, 2015 by Redimus Quote
dr_spock Posted April 30, 2015 Posted April 30, 2015 Looks the good. Seems like the people who designed the real thing used LEGO train windows. Quote
Frank STENGEL Posted April 30, 2015 Posted April 30, 2015 Stunning! If I see well one of the coaches is a sleeping car. Am I right? Quote
Hrw-Amen Posted April 30, 2015 Posted April 30, 2015 A really nice example of a British train that I knew so well from my youth when attending college and was on the trains most days. Quote
Breakdown Posted April 30, 2015 Posted April 30, 2015 I absolutely love this, especially the 7-stud wide design. Makes the seating improve 100%. Very attractive, I always talk about "Shelf appeal" when rating values of toys. if this were an actual set it would have lots of shelf appeal. I can't help but think that $25,000 is a little steep for this model, I would have put that kind of money towards something more subtantial or even some of it towards non-lego stuff. Quote
cgarison Posted April 30, 2015 Posted April 30, 2015 Very Nice work with lots of detail. Great Job! Quote
marbleman Posted May 1, 2015 Author Posted May 1, 2015 Stunning! If I see well one of the coaches is a sleeping car. Am I right? Right,it's sleeping car. I just add the photo to show it. Paste picture in topic is freaking me out, it's hard control and alway lost picture, I don't know why. I absolutely love this, especially the 7-stud wide design. Makes the seating improve 100%.

Thank you for your comment. I really don't know how much price is suitable, because It's my first time to sell my design at internet. I modify the price to $15, maybe it's ok. Lego is only my hobby but not job, I don't want make money from it. But in China, Lego isn't popular because it's expensive for our average incoming, especially buy parts to make my own design, so I only intend to sell my work to support my continuous design. Quote
LEGO Train 12 Volts Posted May 1, 2015 Posted May 1, 2015 Simply amazing! May you show us the wagons with the locomotive? I like the 7 studs format and the inner details. Impressive the 4 studs wide tunnel at the end of both sides of the coach. Quote

zephyr1934 Posted May 1, 2015 Posted May 1, 2015 Those cars make a fine complement to your engine, the entire train is fantastic. Quote
Commander Wolf Posted May 1, 2015 Posted May 1, 2015 Nice work! It seems to me that the cars are a little short relative to the prototype, but I assume the actual scale length would be something absurd... Are those supposed to be bunks in the first car? Do minifigs actually fit? Quote
Man with a hat Posted May 1, 2015 Posted May 1, 2015 Great job, It looks ecellent. Not only the oustide but the inside as well. Quote

Do minifigs actually fit? Unfurtunatly, minifigs don't fit the bunks. It design according to the real layout, but the space is too small to minifig. Quote
