My 01 has XXL wheels. L is way too small. I gave L wheels a chance on my 03 on LEGO IDEAS: https://ideas.lego.com/projects/5c87154b-3396-4343-ac5e-42a5f10bd988 As I mentioned above the design of the egines is pretty close. When you compare my 01 to my 03 the improvement by using XXL-wheels is obvious.

The rods are custom parts from bricks-on-rails.de.

Thank you all! I do not have lots of time for our great hobby at the moment. The more happy I`am that you like my little consist. Maybe next year I will add a baggage wagon. Dark green would be nice. At the moment the plattforms of our Layout are too short. Greetings, Simon!

DB 01 & F-ZUG LEGO SIMON JAKOBI 01 02 by Simon Jakobi, auf Flickr This year I was lucky to finish a long term project... My 01 did receive a major overhaul and some matching rolling stock. Together they form a full consist of a german F-Zug. The new version of my blue lady was inspired by my concept for a 03 on LEGO IDEAS. The tender is all new. I did change the roof and cabine of the engine. The cylinders and several details of the boiler were improved too. But what is most important: She proofed herself as quite a reliable and strong runner on the first exihibtions. Please note: the wagons are slightly shortend by two or three windows and feature standard couplings to keep them compatibel with the engines of other designers and the small radii (R72 and R88) of our LUG-Layout. Up to now I build three wagons including a dinning car. All of the wagons feature full interior and internal illumination.

Thank you very much!

Hi! Maybe some of you have discovered my DB 120 on BRICKS ON RAILS the other day. But there is more to come... Over the last years I made several attempts to design this iconic and outstanding loco which is from a technical perspective mother to all of the modern locos and even to the first ICE generation as well. Every time I dropped the process pretty early although the series 120 was my all time favourit loco in my childhood. All of those angles and slopes on the front gave me nightmares. What happend? New elements! With 37352 it suddenly came all together rather fast. As you can see my MOC can be powered by PF-L-motors and controlled by SBRICK or you can switch to PU-L-motors and PU-hub. But once I was pleased with the first renderings of my 120 the desire for wagons grew. First I came up with some regular Interregio- and Intercity-wagon. Sorry, but I am really poor when it comes to the vast variety of wagon types. Then I moved on to a control cab coach. By that point I was already fallen mad into a strong maniac episode which came to its end with some rolling stock in the famous TEE livery featuring a regular car and a restaurant! I hope you like the result of my latest project. All aboard, summer sneaks around the corner, holidays are in sight.

Great work!

THX!!! Heavy haul operations. Furthermore these lcocs pushed all kinds of trains upwards some steep ramps like "Geislinger Steige" or "Spessart Rampe"

http://DB BR E94 Hildesheimer Steinewelten 2023 by Simon Jakobi, auf Flickr Quite a solid performance during Hildesheimer Steinewelten. Like her predecessor she is a beast. She pulled 60 axles through the R88 curves and still even asked for more! Unfortunately there were some derailments when she left a curve and encountered a turnout without a piece of strait track in between. I think this is due to the low weight on the first axles of the trucks. Although the pivot point is between the first an the second axle it is quite close to the second axle. Unfortunately I did not find time during the event to switch the configuration of the wheels from flanked-flanked-blind to flanked-blind-flanked. Anyways I love the result of the overhaul. There is always a 7th version! http://DB BR E94 Hildesheimer Steinewelten 2023 by Simon Jakobi, auf Flickr

http://DB BR 50 Kabinentender 3rd version Hildesheimer Steinewelten 2023 by Simon Jakobi, auf Flickr She performed really well during service in front of some Umbauwagen or some freight cars on our LUG-layout! http://DB BR 50 Kabinentender 3rd version Hildesheimer Steinewelten 2023 by Simon Jakobi, auf Flickr

Hi, it`s time to share some impressions of Hildesheimer Steinewelten with you! It was the first time that I put up my train station. It is a fictional medium sized station featuring typical german architectural styles. It could be located anywhere in the middle of germany and should represent that kind of station where you drop off to start your holidays. As you can see besind the main building with the clock tower I added a restaurant with a beer garden to the right, a store house to the left and a second platform with an undercrossing. The hole setup is build modular and can be disconnected into 6 48x48 moduls. Maybe next year I will add a third track and some switches. http://Bahnhof LUG-Connected Der Plan Hildesheimer Steinewelten 2023 by Simon Jakobi, auf Flickr http://Bahnhof LUG-Connected Der Plan Hildesheimer Steinewelten 2023 by Simon Jakobi, auf Flickr http://Bahnhof LUG-Connected Der Plan Hildesheimer Steinewelten 2023 by Simon Jakobi, auf Flickr http://Bahnhof LUG-Connected Der Plan Hildesheimer Steinewelten 2023 by Simon Jakobi, auf Flickr http://Bahnhof LUG-Connected Der Plan Hildesheimer Steinewelten 2023 by Simon Jakobi, auf Flickr

https://ideas.lego.com/projects/8cd93420-171c-4ae2-b5a2-0c9d7bbd7412 Hi, please check out my new entry for LEGO IDEAS. I mixed up my latest DB E94/194 version with the coloursceme of one of the greatest LEGO locos. If you like my rendition please support my idea and check out my other entry: https://ideas.lego.com/projects/5c87154b-3396-4343-ac5e-42a5f10bd988 DB BR 194 LEGO IDEAS 4551 SIMON JAKOBI #01 by Simon Jakobi, auf Flickr

Thank you very much. Your feedback really means a lot to me!

Thank you, all! Although I flooded Martin with work (E91, E69, Schnellzugwagen Gruppe 29 (SPOILERALERT!!!)), he was fast as lightning. Give him some time to recover. I am sure he will cover your wish in the very near future.

First of all, THX!!! Thx, Black Knight! You are right concerning the wheel size issue but please note the following facts: The E94 on bricks-on-rails is NOT my design. It was designed by the owner of the site, Martin. It is one of his masterpieces. My first E94 had S-wheels, that`s why later on I choose M-sized wheels for the E17, E18 and E19. I do not scale. Most important for me is the balance between functionality and recognition factor.
