MOC, Motor Tower Car MTW100.083/1

[Captain K.]

Hello,

I want to show you my latest model.

It is a Motor Tower Car "MTW 100.083/1" from Plasser & Theurer with a tool and material car.

It is a machine for installation, maintenance and inspection of catenary.

The model is built in 8wide and powered with two 9V motors.

Some pictures from the model machine:

And a picture with the tool and material car.

More pictures can you find on Brickshelf:

That's pretty cool. Clever use of Flickfire missles

[Androo]

Wonderful!

I'm very impressed at the level of detail, for example the hydraulic rams on the platform booms.

[Lazarus]

nice i would really like an lxf of that :-) would look good with my MOW train.

[Hrw-Amen]

That is a really nice little train with so much character. It is things like this that help to bring a layout to life.

[Asper]

Great! Many details and looks very realistic.

[LEGO Guy Bri]

Excellent MOC Captain K. Very detailed indeed. You do a very good job at building these service vehicles

[Duq]

Great build of an interesting looking train!

[Captain K.]

Hello,

@ all: Thank you very much!

I am glad that you like my MOC.

Unfortunately I have no picture of the real machine.

But for comparison, here is a picture of a HO (1:87) model of Kibri.

Yes, some great detailing in that MOC

[Locomotive Annie]

Stunning! These MOW vehicles make great subjects for MOCs.

[harnbak]

Beautiful! Thx for sharing

Beautiful work there Captain K, I was lucky enough to spot her the other day on Brickshelf. I really like the fact that you study the subject that you model and when you do build it your pour in as much attention as possible, I have a Plasser und Thuerer catalogue that I use as reference when I am building some of my Permanent Way machinery and your model captures the look of the prototype so well.

Once again thank you all!

I have a Plasser und Thuerer catalogue that I use as reference when I am building some of my Permanent Way machinery

I also have this catalog, it is really very helpful when I building these Permanent Way machines.

That looks awesome!!

[Man with a hat]

That's another stunning piece of work again.

Great job on recreating this. Everything is just perfect.

[Andromeda]

Absolutely awesome detail with this MOC Cpt. K. I especially like the electric pickup, and both repair booms! Not to mention the material supply waggon!

[coghilla]

A real genius with these creations. I've recreated another model (Robel Bullok) and will start on this. The techniques used are simply amazing and very clever.

(sorry to bring up an old thread)
