name-already-exist Posted December 29, 2021 You did it! You made the most beautiful train station I´ve ever seen. Chapeu! Frank Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
*thomas* Posted December 30, 2021 Love the DSB version from the iconic VT11.5 . Great adaptation from Holger's creation (I have the 'non LEGO version myself' - I'm sure you know which one I mean), but there's something beautiful about 7 wide trains. Next time you have the change, take some extra pictures to share with this bunch of train-freaks :). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Very nice! Did the show go well? You don't have a loop of track, were you running open ended or just static with the trains? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You don't have a loop of track, were you running open ended or just static with the trains? Thanks. The show went well. Not many visitors though. Mostly an internal LUG event, only two days were open to the public and it didn't help that LEGO World Copenhagen was held during Easter too. The train station was planned as a static stand-alone feature this time around but got connected as a last-minute decision (via the rail yard) to a large Moduverse layout with long double loop of tracks (R120/R104 curves in one end and R88/R72 curves in the other end): Edited April 26, 2022 by dtomsen Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ropefish Posted April 25, 2022 I do not envy you and your friends who have to move that beast! but it is a beautiful piece. Do you have any plans to add an interior at some point? it would be cool to have a section as a cross section! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
zephyr1934 Posted April 26, 2022 Very nice layout. For such a high quality display it is very surprising that you had such a low turnout. Looks like a top notch presentation. I also liked the little 12v train with a public transformer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Our annual event usually has around 1000 visitors per day but this one only had around 600 during both days. It had the usual 100+ LUG participants though and in that regard it was a success and what really mattered On 4/25/2022 at 4:28 PM, Ropefish said: I do not envy you and your friends who have to move that beast! but it is a beautiful piece.

Structually the building is nicely prepared internally but except floors, walls and a few doors and stairs it's pretty much empty inside. Maybe some day I'll get around to actually design the interior digitally. Edited April 26, 2022 by dtomsen Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shiva Posted May 6, 2022 Fantastic! If interiors, then it would be sort of as a museum piece. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dtomsen Posted January 6 (edited) The train station was shown again to the public for a third and supposedly final time at the annual Danish Model Railroad Union event "Modeltog for Alle" held October last year in the city of Kolding. The event was postponed for two and a half years due to Covid and the very same which was cancelled a few weeks before the station was supposed to debut. After the event the dreaded disassembly process commenced Fortunately the process has gone painstakingly slow with the station only partial disassembled because a few days ago the perfect exhibition avenu became possible - very much to my wife's chagrin To be continued...

Shiva Posted January 6 Thank you for the photos and videos. Was there no way for your build to become a permant exhibit? Either at the new station, or at the railway museum there? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
