patje Posted May 27, 2014 Posted May 27, 2014 (edited) very nice, looks good on the real train Edited May 27, 2014 by patje Quote
wondermonkey Posted May 27, 2014 Posted May 27, 2014 That really, really looks great! I love all the details. Quote
Anticyclone Posted May 28, 2014 Posted May 28, 2014 Nice steamer you built there! Very accurate to the prototype too. What is the apparatus in front of the smoke box? Is that the air reservoir for brakes? Quote
Cirkit Posted May 28, 2014 Posted May 28, 2014 It's a nice looking steamer! I enjoy the attention to the details of the real-life prototype, especially the lamps on the front. I wonder how this powerful-looking but long loco would handle on LEGO's tight radii...? Quote
bjorkan Posted May 28, 2014 Posted May 28, 2014 Great, detailed, beautiful... note us with the real one :) Quote
ust60 Posted May 28, 2014 Posted May 28, 2014 Hi Sérgio, your steam locomotive looks very good. Your model is very close to the original. Like it very much. It is not a photo, right? It looks like a file. which was processed in the PC. Do you already know whether they curve through. and travels over turnouts? The 9 Volt drive unit I would still dress up a little. Best regards Udo Quote
Redimus Posted May 28, 2014 Posted May 28, 2014 As a Lego steam engine, that looks *really* good. Looking at the photo however, you might want to consider slightly lengthening the tanks, the look a bit short on the MOC when compared to the photo. Quote
Barduck Posted May 28, 2014 Posted May 28, 2014 Seen it on your Flickr account before really beautifull like the rest of your designs. One note though, should it be 2-8-4 instead of 1-4-2? Quote
Redimus Posted May 28, 2014 Posted May 28, 2014 Depends on what part of Europe you live in I believe. Some count all wheels (4-6-2), some count one side (2-3-1) and some weirdos (the French and Oliver Bulleid) count only half the none powered wheels with numbers, and only half the driving wheels alphanumerically (2-C-1).. Quote
ScotNick Posted May 28, 2014 Posted May 28, 2014 Great work on that tank engine with the detailing. I just hope it doesn't have too much overhang when going around corners. Depends on what part of Europe you live in I believe. Some count all wheels (4-6-2), some count one side (2-3-1) and some weirdos (the French and Oliver Bulleid) count only half the none powered wheels with numbers, and only half the driving wheels alphanumerically (2-C-1).. Haha, I don't know if they count it like 2-3-1 anywhere!? At least here in Austria you count the non-powered axles with numbers and the powered ones with capital letters (I think that'y the most common way in Europe). Furthermore you can add an apostrophe after the nonpowered axle if the trailing truck is movable. Like 2'C1' in this case. Quote
SavaTheAggie Posted May 28, 2014 Posted May 28, 2014 Naming conventions aside, this is a very handsome engine. Well done. --Tony Quote
Man with a hat Posted May 28, 2014 Posted May 28, 2014 Wow, what a nice design. I hope you will build it soon and show us. Quote
LEGO Train 12 Volts Posted May 28, 2014 Posted May 28, 2014 Nice shot Sérgio! This is another top notch work ...I like how you arrange your locomotives! Great piston rods! Quote
zephyr1934 Posted May 31, 2014 Posted May 31, 2014 Wow, you did a great job capturing the prototype, lots of great details in that build. Quote
LEGO Train 12 Volts Posted June 24, 2014 Posted June 24, 2014 Very nice Sérgio, I like your wagons ...the whole train looks totally cool! Quote
Pizzareno Posted June 25, 2014 Posted June 25, 2014 I'll add my voice/words to the chorus! This looks great. I would love to see it in real bricks too Quote
