LEGO Train 12 Volts Posted March 11, 2018 Hello everyone,as announced in the last few months I want to start this month with my European tour I wanted to complete my train collection by making at least one locomotive for each main European country, not yet covered by my MOCs.Today I will start from Portugal with a replica of Sergio Batista's CP2600 I have chosen this model because I've always liked the orange livery with white stripes and the particular upside-down windscreen The model is equipped with lights and a switch hidden under the body Here there are other pictures A new locomotive from another country in the next month ...stay tuned!

Feuer Zug Posted March 16, 2018 Good looking locomotive. Plenty of detail and a good setup with the lighting. I like the upside down windows too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ScotNick Posted March 18, 2018 Very nice model of an interesting engine! Really like how you did the buffers and the dark bluish grey grill on the side of the engine! Already waiting for your next model Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
*thomas* Posted March 19, 2018 (edited) Very nice rendition and mod of sergio's model !!! What I like so much about your builds, is the preference for European models. I'm guessing your next models could be Belgian, Dutch, French, Spanish, British/Irish or Scandinavian. Do you happen to have the LDD file? ;) Edited March 19, 2018 by *thomas* Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dorino Posted March 19, 2018 I like it very much! To the point i am willing reverse engineer it asap. Could anyone tell the part name used for front / rear windows? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zed_43 Posted March 19, 2018 Really nice build! I'd really like to see how you made that micro offset for the doors... That looks really interesting! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rahziel Posted March 21, 2018 Nice initiative, well done! This one is an icon, so many great details, and some of them hard to come by, I think this one came before the horizon express, it was not easy to get the orange bricks no? :) The creator of this beautiful locomotive with some years in the bricks already, has in my opinion the best work by far of Portuguese railroad history, and one of the best worldwide "train master builders" with the attention to detail. Constructions like these inspire others like me, to try and do a version they like. So, kudos to you Sérgio Baptista, "és grande, caral..."! Um abraço, Rafael Costa Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
