RickyWasAYoungBoy Posted February 19 Posted February 19 (edited) Hi everyone, long time no see! The last time I posted was back in 2020. From then on, beside trying to build those designs into real bricks (having done 3 of them), I continue to design new ones. Here's another iconic swiss locomotive, the Be 4/6. These locomotives came out by the time of the famous Ce 6/8 "Crocodile", but in a boxy shape. The Be 6/8 are built for the Gothard Railway from 1920 to 1923. 40 are built. 3 of them are preserved and still alive today, more than a hundred years old. FreelanceArtist has already done a greate job in the Be 4/6 MOC, which set up a great example. My version has 7-stud-wide cabins and 8-stud-wide body, proportions adjusted. I tried the unique dark-green color body at the beginning, but it's too difficult to get all the necessary parts in that color, so I settled for the classic brown color. Powered by 2 XL motors. I also left space for wires of Lego's official led lighting. Full cabin interior, inspired by the official Crocodile design. Openable doors. Designed to go on R40 track. Totaling 1480 parts. See others of my works, some have been built into real bricks: Edited February 19 by RickyWasAYoungBoy Quote
Feuer Zug Posted February 19 Posted February 19 Great recreation of the classic SBB Be 4/6 locomotive. The grills work well for the cooling pipes along the side. I like how you created the cabs a stud narrower to match the real one. Quote
Thomas Waagenaar Posted February 19 Posted February 19 That looks really good! The cab is my favourite part for sure, nicely detailed! Will definitely be exciting to see this one in real bricks eventually as well if you've got plans for that? Quote
Darkkostas25 Posted February 19 Posted February 19 Nice body work and great usage of 7w and 8w in the cabin and body. Great boggies/truks! Cool pantograph. Great gribling or roof and sides Quote
TeddytheSpoon Posted February 20 Posted February 20 Very tidy! I bet it'll look nice next to the Crocodile. Quote
idlemarvel Posted February 22 Posted February 22 What an excellent model with great detailing. Well done indeed. Quote
