LovinLegoSince97 Posted July 24, 2012 Posted July 24, 2012 I congratulate you, but only hope to see it twice as long one day!!! I like that you started this as a 6 year old with a crazy idea! Brilliant. I wish I had thought of a future with my Lego bricks when I was a youngster. Quote

harnbak Posted July 29, 2012 Posted July 29, 2012 Congratulations on your achievement! Where did you find all the required white sleepers? Quote
Henrik Ludvigsen Posted July 30, 2012 Author Posted July 30, 2012 Congratulations on your achievement! Where did you find all the required white sleepers? I bought them from LEGO in a LUGBULK program. Regards Henrik Quote
Man with a hat Posted July 31, 2012 Posted July 31, 2012 Congratulations! What an achievement! And you want to do an even longer track..? I can't wait to see that. Very interesting track design with three section. The middle sections is only with curves, I guess that is to use all the curves you have and not to let any track you have go to waste. Quote
______ Posted July 31, 2012 Posted July 31, 2012 That is amazing! It all looks so cool when completely made up, so you're going for the Guiness World Record next? Quote

Piranha Posted August 2, 2012 Posted August 2, 2012 An amazing accomplishment, that is quite a bit of track. I would like to see a Monorail version of this. Quote

Brickthus Posted August 3, 2012 Posted August 3, 2012 Well done guys - a substantial achievement. How many laps did the batteries last? Even more impressive would be the longest fully-scenic railway, with the entire scenery made from LEGO parts and no empty baseplates with just track on them. What is the longest scenic railway? I don't suppose mine is anywhere near it at 2 circuits of 4.8m x 3.6m - a looped-eight with about 23 straights in each long straight (x4), 10 on the short ones (x4) and 3 in each of the 8 curves per double lap. I think quite a few LUGs have made much longer collaborative layouts, even if non-scenic fiddle yards are discounted from the track length. The building of scenic layout modules would take a while but final assembly of the 48x48 modules would be quicker. Mark Quote

Even more impressive would be the longest fully-scenic railway, with the entire scenery made from LEGO parts and no empty baseplates with just track on them. Mark The train can run for about 18 hours on the same batteries. A lap took just under 1 hour and 55 minutes. The next track will be more than 1.000 squaremeters in area. There is not much space between the tracks anyway. Regards Henrik Quote
splatman Posted August 3, 2012 Posted August 3, 2012 I live in Washington state, USA. I've read Safari can get around this, because of the server-hopping way it accesses the web. Can anyone confirm? I don't have Safari on my system, and I'm not sure if it's available for my OS (Ubuntu 10.04) Quote

Hrw-Amen Posted August 6, 2012 Posted August 6, 2012 So do you actually know how far that is in an approximate scale for that little engine, as in if it were life size scaled up how many KM would it be? Quote
