Electricsteam Posted August 20, 2020 Posted August 20, 2020 Hey ya'll! Back with another project that's been sitting on the back-burner for far too many years. If ya'll remember way back when of the LLD MOC of the 0-4-2 Porter locomotive, well it's back again this time in brick form! There is not too much to say about this little train it. It went together very wheel from the LLD file I made years ago and it feels pretty smooth on the tracks. I think it's good to be apart of a small little shutting area or some little side track along a bigger display. I really enjoy how well this little train turned out! Even with the unibody type of frame it still can connect to other wagons on each end without too many problems. It's gotten me really excited to build some new trains I that I did a poor job and building in the past now that it's all a clean slate. Especially now that everything from my Hogwarts express to my Pneumatic Loco have been smashed to bits. But things are looking up as we scope out new homes with a lot more room for Lego! Maybe I'll tackle the horror on rails. The infamous John Stevens next. I hope you enjoy! Quote
High_Admiral Posted August 20, 2020 Posted August 20, 2020 That is real nice, especially given its size. Can it negotiate standard turns and switches? Quote
Pdaitabird Posted August 20, 2020 Posted August 20, 2020 What a great litttle loco! You've packed a lot of detailing into a small size! Quote
zephyr1934 Posted August 20, 2020 Posted August 20, 2020 Great little build, building small can be a really challenge Quote
LEGO Train 12 Volts Posted August 21, 2020 Posted August 21, 2020 Lovely little steam engine ...I like the detail of the post rods! Quote
SteamSewnEmpire Posted August 21, 2020 Posted August 21, 2020 You should invest in 4x custom wheels and do real rods. Even if you don't physically connect them to the cylinders, it would be a marked improvement. Quote

It just raises the whole train up too high in a way I'm not happy with. Quote
