    Union Pacific 125 - EMD GP7

    Nice MOC, thanks for sharing!
  2. Nice execution to this shunter. I like the use of a rubber band to make it run. Thanks for the video!
  3. This has been done before with the "spear Method", using only Lego parts. A Lego spear fits in the little slot in the rail from the side, pushing the little spring-loaded switch point piece. I have built one with success using the servo motor, controlling it by PF.
  4. Hi Video can be found here. Mechanism built into the bogie in the Cargo loco from Lego: www.flickr.com/photos/115097068@N03/12108429763/ If you look around my Flickr you can also see a similar mechanism in a Class 8 shunter and my take on the Norwegian Diesel shunter Skd 226. At the very bottom I have also put a parts list for the bogie if you want to build it yourself as well as Pictures that should explain the features quite clearly. Thanks to Selander for the initial inspiration to develop my take on the mechanism.

    [MOC] German BR E119

    Wonderful execution, thanks for sharing!
  9. Fantastic creation! You say the model is simple, but the ideas and thought including math and programming involve makes this just jaw dropping Thank for sharing!
  10. Very nice train and execution. In addition to being a fantastic moc, your presentation is superb. I too drool over my keyboard(s). Thanks for sharing!

    Would this work?

    Hi, the constraints of building a shunter containing all the parts needing to use PF is a challenge, but doable. In fact, it is possible to even include more functions in a locomotive just 20 studs long. I have based my designs on the Norwegian Diesel Sk 226 as well as a Class 08 Diesel shunter from England. Both have working decouplers as well as propulsion, i.e. 2 motors inside + battery and PF receiver. Since the Sk 226 shunter is only 4 studs wide at the top, extensive use of Snot is necessary, both locomotives have technic chassis.

    32 gun frigate Concorde (French, ca.1760-1780)

    I like this ship a lot It looks like you glued the horisontal ropes on the vertical ones, did this happen before or after rigging the masts? Thanks for sharing

  20. Hi, The Norwegian LUG Brikkelauget has just finished its yearly event På Kloss Hold (PKH) As soon as I had my own copy of the 4000014 train I knew that I wanted to build it, and eventually did after acquiring the 3 necessary bricks to finish the build (namely the 2 black '132' bricks as well as the torso of the driver). My MOC at the event was Legoland Billund from the 70ties, encompassing a narrow gauge railway with a motorized 4000014. Given the very small space in the loco, I decided to put an M motor, an old 9V switch and an old 9V battery case in one of the wagons. It proved to work nicely. The narrow gauge design including the switch point design has been found here on Eurobricks. Please welcome the 4000014 in its proper environment: https://www.flickr.c...eposted-public/ Thanks for watching!

    Narrow gauge in Legoland R

    1. I built it 2. PKH was held in Trondheim, Norway, 43 exhibitors from Brikkelauget with MOCs, MODs and original sets from TLC. 4500+ visitors on Sunday made the event a success. The rest of the weekend with our LUGs general assembly, workshops and of course finishing our layout. 3. My MOC will be exhibited at Skaerbaek Fan Weekend in Denmark in september.

    CAF Urbos 3 tram, Budapest [REAL MOC]

    thanks for sharing I like the snot work and overall look How does the overhang in front and rear look in curves?

    Vale SD40-2, 7w

    Interested to see how you attached the snot work on the sides of the bogeys, it is a little hard to reverse engineer
