domboy Posted January 3, 2012 Posted January 3, 2012 (edited) I haven't done very much MOCing at all, and don't have a lot of extra pieces to do so anyway (especially train bits). But I did get inspired to try to convert an unused rolling stock set into something to add a bit of a Christmas flair to the Train I had managed to have ready to go around the tree (10194 Emerald Night + 10015 Green Passenger Wagon + 10014 Caboose). That set was my recently completed (parts sourced from bricklink) 10016 Tanker. I realized the Tanker set contained a lot of Red, Green, and White pieces, so my idea was use only the pieces in this set to build a simple Christmas colored wagon with white "snow" pieces on top and then put a couple models from the 2824 City Advent Calendar (2010) on it. I am quite pleased with the result so I thought I'd share a few pictures. I didn't post it in the building contest as I didn't think it fit the category of a custom Christmas train as it's only one car, and not a very complicated build i.e. I didn't do any planning, just fiddling with pieces until I got something I liked (but I like it!). Plus I didn't get the pictures in time anyway... The Christmas wagon A couple of pictures of it with the rest of the train. I was very happy to have a Lego train going around the tree!!
