Hi all.

Here some pictures of two 7-studs versions of the Italian E424 locomotive.

The first, inspired by a model posted some time ago by LEGO Train 12 Volts, is the version with the classic livery "Isabella".

The second is a model that is often called "shuttle" and, although the colors are not as specials as the sister, I find it still has an interesting pattern.

Very nice Ex cinno. I like the 7-wide option too, 8 is too wide in my opinion, but 6 makes one loose details. I like the brows version better although the light blue looks nice too!

Very nice! I once rode the Regionale Veloce and really enjoyed looking at the Italian trains and locomotives! They are so different from anything in the United States, I really began to appreciate what you have over there.

I like the pantographs on the green(?) and red locomotive.

Hello Therize, thank for your post :sweet: but my locomotives are one in sand yellow/reddish brown and the other in white/medium blue :look: . No green and red locomotives here: may be your monitor need some adjustment? :laugh:

Me too.

Wow...i never rode a train and I would love to try it. By the way your flickr is amazing.

Very nice work Ex Cinno! :thumbup:

Now you have your own version of the E424 Isabella and Shuttle :wub:

Are you planning to do other italian locomotives? 'cause they're always welcome! :laugh:

Hello Lego Train :grin: : I take this opportunity to thank you for the valuable tips you have given me. :blush: And yes, i'm thinking about another italian loco but is too early to talk about it.

Nah, I'm colourblind. So it isn't my monitor. Edited by THERIZE

Hi Therize, i know well your problem because my brother is colourblind too. We played football together for many years and he never passed the ball to the wrong player.

Lovely creation! :wub:

Just one question, shouldn't be green the upper part of the model n.2?

Yes, you are right more or less. However i think that of the Lego colors medium blue is what it looks more the same.

I could use sand green but my simulations with Ldd have led me to use the medium blue.

Very nice. I actually like the medium blue version better. The curves on the cab there work better I think. But they are probably not available in dark tan.

You are right Man: Lego has not yet produced the dark tan 60481 slope.
