BillytheKid Posted November 22, 2006 (edited) Today I've helped mine friend to build up his layout of his 12v trains. We are far form finished, but we're getting there. We've put a lot of energy to rebuild all his sets till 100% complete. The result till sofar: Me friend also likes to buy MISB 12v sets. And the fun part is, I have to build them. So one 7818 MISB less in this world. Edited November 21, 2010 by AFOL12v Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

alex54 Posted November 22, 2006 You're friend has very old sets, and some "new" ones! Is it not to hard to help a friend without wanting to take him one or two sets? :-D And another question (just to know, I'm curious), is it you in dark purple? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BillytheKid Posted November 22, 2006 Sets like 1966, I had one. I've sold it, cause the room is small in my layout. Besides I've all the sets of 12v between 1980-1991, otherwise it would be hard not to keep them :P . Yes, I'm builder 2 ;) . For Hobbes: have you seen my layout :D ?

Lego Amaryl Posted November 22, 2006 I'm a fan of 12 V train too. In 2005 I built a layout with all my old sets and some MOC. The link is http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=167227 @Hobbes: I have a 7823 too ;-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hobbes Posted November 23, 2006 Sets like 1966, I had one. I've sold it, cause the room is small in my layout. *wacko* Next time you wanna sell something, you know where to ask first... ;-) For Hobbes: have you seen my layout :D ? Yes, I have, and I'm still waiting for the package ;-) The link is http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=167227 Oh, that's you, I never noticed the username. I've seen it before.

Hobbes Posted November 23, 2006 I forgot that USA people I'm Austrian ;-), but anyway... write it in another way. Ok, now the correct way: €25000,- . Not a penny less. You're a tough negotiator... Now what? X-D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BillytheKid Posted August 30, 2009 (edited) Together with my friend, we build this wagon in style 7816 Click on pic for a bigger one Click on pic for a bigger one I think the colors well done.

vgo Posted August 31, 2009 Nice layout and some really cool train sets. :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BillytheKid Posted September 11, 2010 (edited) My friend has his own attic and soon we start to build his layout. First we need to design a nice layout with a big bridge in it. I made this and I wonder what you think of it? Just click on pic, to look closer at the plan itself. Edited November 21, 2010 by AFOL12v Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brickaroo Posted September 12, 2010 I'm also one of those people that likes to collect MISB 12V sets and open them at some point. It's an expensive habit but well worth it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CarrollFilms Posted September 13, 2010 I must say this is just beautiful from a 12V Fan's prespective, but I don't have a bit of 12V, I remember growing up with 9V trains and I always wanted that 12V yellow passenger train. Well there's Bricklink of course, as seeing sets are only $200 for a Train but that is why I have a job Thank you for this inspiration to go out and start my collection of 12V Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gareth Posted February 21, 2011 How's this set up coming along? has you'r friend had any more sets? it's good I like it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LEGO Guy Bri Posted February 21, 2011 Looks great so far! Can't wait to see more progress pics leading to the final design. Is program that you used to do the overhead layout view the BlueBrickDesign or what ever its called, and do you know if it's MAC )S 10.6 compatible? If so, I think I should look into this for my city's final design. Keep up the great work! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BillytheKid Posted February 21, 2011 His attic isn't still ready to build the layout up. His present layout is getting under dust, waiting to be broken down......... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hi AFOL12v I like very much this new creation The pictures are beautiful and they take me back to 80s!

Brickimad Posted March 17, 2011 This is a chance to obtain a load of 12v transformers. I didn't bid, as I already have half a dozen. But for £10 for three, plus P&P. Good value. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/3-Lego-12v-4-5v-Train-Power-Supply-/290546057914?pt=UK_Construction_Toys_Kits&hash=item43a5e502ba Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BillytheKid Posted March 24, 2011 @Brickimad: I do not understand your post. Finally the build of the brigde could continu now. Pic's say more than words. Plan is that a road and traintrack goes underneath it and 2 traintrack above. The start of the building: And the progress: Now I need more bricks to continu building.......

Gareth Posted March 24, 2011 It's looking good AFOl 12v. It looks like it's going to be a very sturdy bridge, and a good way to use up those long Technic beams. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
