MOD: China Train

[Chr.Maglekaer]

This train is a bit different, It was a BanBao model that I have made in to LEGO. The Banbao version is based on a copy of LEGO's IR train base from 2006. http://www.bricklink...?P=55455c01#T=C

Can you see the irony?? Anyway...

So here is my version, I used the standart train wagon base instead, I added Diesel engine and a modified undercarriage from the Maersk Container Train.

Here are some photos and building instructions of the real deal: http://www.brickshel...ry.cgi?f=498322

That looks really good! I actually really like the idea of taking a cheap knock off and making it so much better.

Good Work!

Well isn't a little funny? The person what has gallery I liked too, has the same idea with the HXD2.

So in way, yes that train was the inspiration for BanBao and me ^_^

But source for power does they use? Diesel or electricity?

China would be a unique country to railfan; diesels, electrics, and maglevs in the cities; steam in the mining towns!

I found the Banbao you said, it's really design according to HXD2. HXD2 is electricity, and the model I made （http://www.eurobricks.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=115631&view=findpost&p=2352149） is HXN3, it's diesel.

In fact, All steam locomotive is retired now.

Ah the last ones retired? Dang it! Still surprised a few lasted into the 21st century.

Here is a picture of my train, where it is partially separated. I used it in a contest from RailBricks. That's why the doors on the train carriage is in gray.
