Lego Train MOC's. Saddle Tank, Tram, Shunters and more
sed6 replied to LegoDad01's topic in LEGO Train Tech
I love your 0-6-0 Saddle Tank! Fantastic! -
This is finally back in stock at Lego online store, and I have mine on order. Two questions; Is there an LDD of this available anywhere? Secondly, can the silly wheels at the top be removed and that section of track replaced with a slight downslope to get the cars rolling instead? Thanks!

I would love to see the new Airplane, 60262! -
Lol, he's right! Just replace that modified 1x1 brick with a 1x1 plate with a clip on top and voila! instant modernization!
-
I like your train and all three trains that pass by! It's worth a look! I use compressed graphite on my bearings and switches (turnouts). Also I agree with you about the pressure on the end of the axle, so again I use graphite there also. That whole layout is impressive!

Train MOCs and Builders - Who/What is Your Inspiration?
sed6 replied to Digger of Bricks's topic in LEGO Train Tech
Thanks for the bump! Indeed I find that tram to be very inspirational. I might find a way to stuff the old IR PF stuff in there and a train motor underneath. -
Very well done! Thanks for sharing!

Fun video! -
Here it is :) Visited my brother and his cat and thought it'd be cool to film there. Enjoy the ride.

That's because the pivot point on the truck is behind, not directly underneath the camera. In other words the camera is at the very end of the car. If it were in the middle (the truck in front of the camera) the camera would appear to turn into the corner, giving the opposite visual effect. -
I think it looks great! You did a good job closing up the back. I agree with others, add some appropriate accessories on the raised platform. Replace a dozen or so random tiles with 2x2 jumpers, and start sticking stuff and minifigs on there. Ideas will come quickly from there.

TRAIN TECH Help, General Questions & Talk to the Staff
sed6 replied to WesternOutlaw's topic in LEGO Train Tech
If you look through some threads here you'll find a variety of creative layout solutions, large and small. Myself, I went small. Here's a link to my layout. Good luck with yours and start a new thread with lots of pics to keep us updated. -
Just discovered that Lego trains are beyond my reach
sed6 replied to SteamSewnEmpire's topic in LEGO Train Tech
Lots of great tips so far! I'll add, DON'T GIVE UP. I've designed many models in LDD and built them all with BL purchases. With hundreds of recent orders my experience is parts will cost $.10 on average and shipping $4 per order in the US. Your 2100 part loco should run $210 plus shipping plus motor and battery and PF gear. As stated above you need to do two things; substitute rare or expensive parts or colors and then shop wisely on BL. Good luck, you can do it! -
Wow, that's great progress! I really didn't mean for you to go to the extra effort of building another. The battery on it's side is an interesting idea.

I love the look and the scale of these. Think I'll build some. My layout is PF the IR kind. Think the green engine with red chassis could fit it? What would you design for PF?
