Lego MOC Wooden Gondola

[Terry Akuna]

My first try at building a wooden gondola. I'll build a few more versions before I go into production for my layout.

Looks great!  How many of the wood pattern parts do you need per gondola?

48 qty 1x6 wood grain pieces.

Here is version 2.0

I think v2 looks better, nice work. If you stick with v1, I'd suggest using just one 1x6 tile for each of the two middle verticals on each side instead of a pair for each.

Very nice! In which original set where the wood pattern tiles used?

[Feuer Zug]

Both are nice, but I feel version 2 is the better design. It gives the feel of cast iron supports holding up the wood. The thinner vertical supports also make it look better I think. Nice work and a definite contrast to your modern cars on the next siding.

I personally Like the V2 more - the use of 1x6 wooden planks is more realistic, plus the black bricks with studs are perfect. Thumbs Up!!!

I agree 100%, v2 looks better but if you use just one 1x6 tile for each of the two middle verticals also v1 could be the best choice

A great and an original work any way!

Very nice. And I agree with the others that V2 looks better.

Thanks for the comments .... v2.0 is the final with a minor detail change on the underside.
