[MOC & Instructions] 4554 Central Station Revisited

Recommended Posts

Hello to the community.

The last weeks, I had finally a bit more time for LEGO, so I started a new small digital project: (digital) modern redesign of the classic LEGO Set 4554 Central Station (also known as Metro Station) from the LEGO Trains Theme from 1991. These have been my first steps in the Lego Train Theme, maybe you like the result. ;-)

I also created some building instructions for the train station. You can download them (PDF File, 125 pages, for free, no registration) under the below URL:

Ok, this is now a bit offtopic, but may I ask you however, as a sort of recompensation, to vote for my LEGO Ideas Project Queen Elizabeth II and share my project idea in social media. You can vote for my project here: https://bit.ly/legoqueenelizabeth . I would really appreciate. :thumbup: :classic:

Happy Building, stay safe and keep healthy. :-)

Lovely!  Nice update of the exterior, but the interior builds especially are great!  Thanks for sharing!

(and supported June's castle on its own merits, too)

That was always one of my favorite train stations, and it's fantastic to see it here in tan with more detail.  Great work, and thanks for sharing!

Nice!

I was planning to take inspiration from the yellow/red model to make a station, tan is a good idea, I may then take a lot of inspiration from yours :)

I've seen lately some other remakes of an old Lego set, and I like it. Mostly, I guess because the sets are from my 'period'.
And this is another one, and it looks great. Very recognizable, like size/shape, but with a lot of nice details. Also the color looks much better and the arches underneath the platform gives it nice look too.

And the lanterns are great too. Fits good with the look of the station.

Really nice. Works much better than yellow or red.

@deraven Thank you very much. Also for the vote for the castle, I really appreciate this. :classic:

I'm happy that you like the interior, in the end it took as much time as the build itself.

Very nice recreation. I remember wanting the original to go with my Metroliner. Glad we have a much wider colour palate these days!
