SavaTheAggie Posted September 6, 2007 I've (mostly) finished the exterior designs for the passenger cars to go a long with my streamlined steam locomotive I built some months ago. The full consist includes: locomotive, tender, baggage car, passenger car, tavern car, passenger car and observation car. CAD pictures of the individual cars can be found in the main directory, here (no interiors, sorry): http://www.flickr.com/photos/savatheaggie/...57600862647350/ It's all still a work in progress, but I'm using a lot of basic bricks, so it should be very doable when my finances improve. I even have a design in mind for the karaoke machine. --Tony Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Siegfried Posted September 7, 2007 Nice render. I'm glad you decided on the yellow. When can you make it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SavaTheAggie Posted September 7, 2007 Nice render. I'm glad you decided on the yellow. When can you make it? Well, I've already built the locomotive, which was really the only tricky part. I've extracted a parts list for the five cars (minus interiors) and I guesstimate it'll cost around $100, maybe $125, (plus tables and chairs, etc.) to build them all. As for when, I plan to get started as soon as my finances allow me to spend the money, but that may not be for several months. --Tony Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Axle Posted September 7, 2007 I never liked these as much as British streamlined Engines, but your design has Turned me around to Love this Train. Very well done! *wub* Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Corvus Posted September 8, 2007 Dang that's purdy. Well put. This is a great train. If lego had made it, I'd buy it, even though I do nothing with the train theme. Beautiful, beautiful train! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
