Winter Village: Train Depot

Recommended Posts

Here is my entry in to the expand the winter village contest. I struggled at first on what to build and than it hit me. People love having train tracks go around their tree and their winter village displays so why not make a station that would have a track that circled the town. So anyways here is my entry.

The set consists of 3 parts: The train station, the mail bag catcher, and a train signal light. The track section is not connected to the platform so it can moved around to fit the other tracks.

Excellent entry brickcitydepot! I agree with CM this could pass up as an official Winter Village set. I really like the distinct Chritmas wreath decorations you've put in there, as well as the effective positioning of the white pieces and slopes to make a realistic snow effect on the roof, ground, and on the railway. Great work and best of luck in the contest! default_thumbup.gif

This is an awesome Building Brickcitydepot :thumbup:

I really liked the Idea of a train Depot. Original, and nice-looking.

As Crabboy329 said, this is a real piece of art !

The snow design on the roof is wonderfull. I love how you made the snow cover only half of the roof :wub:

The Inside is nice too. a little empty though :sceptic: but that great Lamp design makes up for it :classic:

The snow turns out really nice with Rails and the effect is sweet.

This creation deserves a place in the top 5 :sweet:

Welcome on Eurobricks, good luck in the contest and hope to see more from you soon !

Great entry! It looks like it would fit in very well in a winter village. I too like the technique used for the snow on the roof and on the tracks, it is very effective. :thumbup:

Very well done. :classic:
