Stephenson's Rocket 1829 [MOC]

[MadDadBricks]

I just finished designing this complete set based on my Stephenson's Rocket MOC. I've entered it as part of BDP Series 3. Hopefully it's good enough male it through to crowd funding!

Happy building, and tha ks for checking out my build.

You can find a walk through I made  of the engine and tender here (filmed for the Brick Train Awards):

Nicely done on this historic locomotive (and consist). I like the octagonal boiler design. It allows for embellishments like the name plate and valves, yet still gives an impression of the round shape.

Thanks for sharing @MadDadBricks. I will definitely vote for it. In Holland we had "De Arend" which was of the same design Apart from that, please don't spam / cross-post in different fora.

Ah! I'll have to look up De Arend! Thank you, and noted about cross-posting. Thanks!

Thank you! Yes, and I wanted to capture the length-wise panelling on the boiler. I tried a few different solutions, but I liked this the best.
