THERIZE Posted August 18, 2015 Posted August 18, 2015 Hi guys, I have a little project I worked on the last hour as a fun build and I decided I would share this one! TATMRlady by therizingrize, on Flickr Can someone guess 'who' she is? anyone? Well, this is Lady. one of the main characters in Thomas And The Magic Railroad. a movie from back in 2000. she runs the 'Magic Railroad'. the bridge between 'shining time station' and 'Sodor'. the two places in the movie. I saw the movie once at TV, I assume I understood nothing because there isn't a Dutch translation but I watched the movie several times on YouTube. about the model: The model is mostly dark purple and gold and is powered by the standerd PF bogie and if I could build the model it would use BBB medium drivers and golden drivers from Zephyr. sadly due to the gold and purple used in this model I won't see this beauty on my layout... But I could just paint the bricks so maybe... TATMR3lady by therizingrize, on Flickr Here is a picture of how the boiler is connected. I now realize that I forgot a dome, oops. just a simple connection here with a 1x2 'headlight' brick. TATMR2lady by therizingrize, on Flickr A picture of the rear showing the gap where the PF cable would stick out of. little taillight also. TATMR4lady by therizingrize, on Flickr And here a picture of the cab. kinda boring but as this model won't be build I don't see it as a problem. I hope you guys like the model. Maybe if many people like it I will drop the LXF. bye Quote
meowmachine Posted August 18, 2015 Posted August 18, 2015 Do you think there is any way to support the cab roof? Quote
Murdoch17 Posted August 18, 2015 Posted August 18, 2015 You could do Dark Red for the engine instead of light purple, or maybe even Dark purple. (that isn't too far of a stretch) you'd just need to change the windows to this: http://alpha.bricklink.com/pages/clone/catalogitem.page?P=4035#T=C Also, as I said on flickr, you might need some Big Ben Bricks wheels to do this, if your don't mind 3rd party parts.

And about don't mind, I already have 16 BBB wheels... Do you think there is any way to support the cab roof? It uses a 2x4 plate under it. You can see it on the third picture.

Electricsteam Posted August 30, 2015 Posted August 30, 2015 I saw this in theater way back when I can say this is an amazing model! Quote
