Lego World 2012 Copenhagen Train Layout

[Esben Kolind]

Hey all,

I have edited a 4-minute video from the train layout at Lego World 2012 in Copenhagen this past weekend.

The video features:

• Footage from the driver's seat from most of the loops of the layout
  
• Warren's St. Pancras Station
  
• Oppermann's Steintal
  
• Matija's Western Train Layout
  
• The Great Belt Bridge
  
• Behind the scenes footage under the big mountain
  
• A hidden underground station
  
• My own Intercity Train with Automatic Doors
  

At the end there are some "deleted" scenes: A near crash on St. Pancras and a quick reaction from a spectator saving my camera from certain death (I had not checked where the track ended when sending the camera off in front of the train without any coupling!)

The movie was shot with my pocket camera mounted on this little fellow:

Enjoy!

Damn it! I should have known about this event...

Some very nice details here: the bridges, historic town square and the station!

Excellent video, I really enjoyed watching it. Thanks for sharing!

We were there. Extremely nice idea, shooting from the locomotives. How I wish it was still open at Bella Centre. :) Thansk for making the film.

Nice video

Just curious: What train is that at the 1min 17sec mark?

@brickitect

It looks like a V11.5 TEE (Trans Europ Express) with a new color scheme.

I really LOVE the camera operator at the back!

Thank you for sharing the video, Esben. It was funny to see the layout from the driver's view. I also went to Lego World this year. The first time for me. It was really enjoyable and definately not the last time. Unfortunately your intercity train with automatic door wasn't running when I saw it. But it's a really great feature.

@Nebsirob, @Esben Kolind

Thanks for the info and pics. I did a quick search on Brickshelf and it seems this train is quite popular for MOC.
