Spur II aus Klemmbaust Posted June 7, 2023 (edited) Hello everyone, my name is Nik and I am from Germany. I would like to present my little MOC-collection. Since 2021 I build 1:22.5 scale locomotives out of bricks. Meanwhile 3 locomotives are finished. It all started with a holiday on the island Rügen at the baltic sea. After that I absolutely had to build the 99 1782-4 as a MOC. The result is the following MOC for gauge IIe (gauge 32mm): Some facts about 99 1782-4: Motorization: 2x PF L-motor Power: BuWizz 3.0 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- It was followed by the Mallet "11sm" of the Brohltalbahn, also on a scale of 1:22.5, but now for gauge IIm (gauge 45mm): Some facts about Mallet 11sm: Motorization: 2x PU L-motor Power: Hub 88009 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Locomotive number 3 is something completely different again. Prototype is "Welsh Pony" of the Ffestiniog Railway from Porthmadog in Wales. Gauge IIf (gauge 26.7mm): Some facts about "Welsh Pony": Motorization: 1x PF L-motor Power: Hub 88009 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I hope you'll enjoy my MOCs and videos and thank you in advance for your interest. Greetings from germany, Nik Edited June 7, 2023 by Spur II aus Klemmbaust Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Feuer Zug Posted June 7, 2023 Oooh, gorgeous collection of dampfloks. The engineering to get them working on a different gauge with all those details must be incredible. Brick ON! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sven J Posted June 8, 2023 (edited) Hi Nik, I don't need to tell you how much I love your models, for I know them for some time already and we talked about them before more than once. But it's great to see that you finally decided to show them to a wider audience. So welcome here on EB - and keep up your great work!

For sure this wouldn‘t be my last locomotive ;-) Best regards, Nik Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes, I am working on something new but it’s still a little secret ;-) I will present it here when it‘s finished, but it will take a few months I think until completion.

LEGOTrainBuilderSG Posted June 20, 2023 For a second I thought it was @Sven J but wow am I pleased to see another large scale LEGO Train modeller! Beautiful locomotives! Am also a fan of the intricate coupling rods especially on the Mallet 11sm. Do you have any freight or passenger wagons at this scale? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks a lot ;-) In the moment, I want to focus on locomotives because there are so many more I would like to build. But who knows, maybe I will build some wagons in the future… ;-) Greetings, Nik Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
zephyr1934 Posted June 24, 2023 Amazing work, the detailing is incredible and if you didn't know what to look for you would never know it was lego. I too vote for a few wagons to complete train. Maybe start with flatcar so that a large engine can pull a load consisting of a smaller engine (grin) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bensch55 Posted July 28, 2023 Hello Nik, nice to see you and your models here too! As I told you before, your models are just astounding and I am really glad to see more and more people build in similar scales like @Sven J and me! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lego3057 Posted August 16, 2023 (edited) Hello Your models should save a lot of work to other builders. I mean, what is the purpose of trying better solutions? But do they negotiate curves and switches? Edited August 16, 2023 by lego3057 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
