DB 212

[PinkLloyd]

Hello everyone,

today I would like to present you my version of the german diesel locomotive DB 212.

 

I started with this version which was built with my own bricks a few years ago: As you can see this model wasn't very detailed. The proportions weren't accurate aswell...

 

So after reworking the model in LDD I am quite happy with the result. The locomotive consists of 660 parts without the rails.

 

Looking even better in dark red:

 

I hope you like what you see :)

Nice work, I like the progression from your first build a few years ago to the dark red version. Each new picture another improvement

The long version is simply perfect ...amazing MOC!

That looks really nice. And as said above it is nice to see such a progression in the model.

I fear I won't build it myself, but if anyone would like to I could publish the LDD file. But notice that this MOC is built on the base of the old 9V system, not with power functions ;)

Hello everyone,

I recently uploaded the LDD-file of the red verion to rebrickable.

The yellow canals in the body of the model are foreseen for the old cables. The brown 2x2 plates need to be replaced with the cable heads. This way the lights will be turned on while driving on the tracks.

I hope you can understand my bad english
Have fun
