Hi all,

I've uploaded the first videos of our big loop train layout at LEGO Fanwelt in Cologne some weeks ago.

This is a stationary shoot of the full loop with my ICE 3 and Kai's Thalys:

LEGO ICE 3 on smooth curves at LEGO Fanwelt

And some "on-track-shoots" of my old BR 10 with Riviera-Express passenger coaches and the ICE 3:

It's cool to see these train monsters in 8-wide running on track rather trying to get aroung standard LEGO curves. The whole layout was about 18x6 meters with 3 individual loops using only straight 9V LEGO tracks.

The table heights differed very much so the ride on the trains might have not been so comfortable :-]

Have fun,

Holger

Wow! those are some really cool videos.

Let me help a bit by redirecting your youtube clips.

Unfortunately, I do not know how to do the same with the clip on Flickr.

The tanker cars are also really nicely designed - do you have better pictures of them. Certainly the scale is the best i have ever seen... I wonder if it is worth doing rapid prototyping of larger scale curves to allow 8 wide on general.

THAT IS AMAZING, i haven't seen such a huge layout like this in a while, I have to say, those ICE trains were pretty cool, they seemed realistic. Keep up the great work, 8 Wide ALL THE WAY!!!!

WOW! Fantastic videos, layout, and trains!

The ICE 3 and Thalys look right at home on this large layout. The bumpy ride because of the tables is only a minor inconvenience -- if I was a LEGO person, I would definitely want to ride in one of those trains. :laugh:

I've subscribed on YouTube for sure. :classic: Keep up the great work HoMa!

Cheers,
