Sérgio Posted July 12, 2019 Hello, Another Virtual building (sorry I don't have more room or parts to build in real life). This is a Semi-Turistic train who travels one of the most beautiful landscapes in Portugal, Douro's River. - English Eletric CP1400 Series Locomotive (with Blue color scheme instead Orange) - Schindlers Carriges 7wide, 9V , but can have Powerfunctions if the Battery Box and IR Reciever goes on the first car Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

zephyr1934 Posted July 13, 2019 Great part usage on the loco, and that opening image is stunning. Keep up the good work! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sed6 Posted July 14, 2019 I love the carriages! Great look and shape and colors. Just make the axles black. The engine is neat but it looks kinda sad, just like the real one. So good job there too! I just built an EMD F7 loco and they too look sad from some angles. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

coinoperator Posted July 15, 2019 Really awesome, the carriages make me drewl. The locomotive is also a feast for the eye, only the horns leave something to desire, they're a bit out of tune. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thank you :) Actually, I made this loco in real bricks 5 or 6 years ago and use stickers instead white sausages (they are not horns ) This time I try to improve without using any stickers/decals :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ArneNielsen Posted July 16, 2019 Impressive! Just wondering, in the photograph the real train have the vents horizontal, while you did your build with them vertical - is that on purpose? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Just wondering, in the photograph the real train have the vents horizontal, while you did your build with them vertical - is that on purpose? Thank You, The main reason is they only are fixed by one line of studs on horizontal, and don't have room to put more studs, if I put one grill horizontal, I don't have nothing(studs) to clutch the second grill. So, it was a compromise, to assume vertical instead horizontal grills. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rahziel Posted July 17, 2019 Hello again Sérgio, every time I see that 1st photo, wow amazing scene, I love lego trains, and you sir are a master builder, excellent build, CP should throw you money for the great publicity creating these amazing trains that take me back to those great machines instead of these "new" crappy ones. The detail is superb and the way you managed to create the loco cabin is great, im not a fan of the "horns" :D but they work, the passenger wagons are spot on! Well done m8, well done, keep showing these works of art. É isso caral**!!! :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
