  1. Hi! This isn't a replica of an existing model; as far as I know, there's no R34 Time Attack/Climbing car with an EVA01 livery. While there are a couple of Evangelion-themed race cars, this isn't one of them. First, I aimed for the Time Attack/Climbing aesthetics, then applied the EVA01 livery (this is a modification of an old MOC).EVA01 is a massive entity (not a mech) from the anime Neon Genesis Evangelion, although I'm referencing the 'Rebuild Of Evangelion' design. I've tried to incorporate not only the colors but also some of the shaping from EVA01 into the car. Although there are similarities, this is not a MOD from the Speed Champions Fast&Furious Nissan GTR-R34 set. The construction of both is completely different.

  2. Portuguese Diesel Nez Cassé From the 80's 1:45 scale Circa 2000 parts Powered by 2 Powerfunctions train Motors and Buwizz Custom Lights Custom Magnet Couplers from HA Bricks 49cm long 1kg The CP1906(from the 1900 series) is a shorter cousin of the CC72000. Initially, they were exclusively used for cargo service by CP Comboios de Portugal. Nowadays, they also serve in Medway. Please do not mistake this for its older electric cousin, the CP2600 With his Yellow Medway Version

    [MOC] Alsthom - CP1906 (Diesel Locomotive)

    Thank you! I have an OCD, I have to build everything in pairs, So I have at least 2 Schemes for each model when the same happened IRL Thank you! I always try to replicate every important detail to make the model close to the real-life one :) Thank you!! Thank you! "broken noses" are my favorite train shape :)

    Cute and well-detailed for his size! nice job!
  5. When Medway Iberia bought CP-Carga, they changed the livery to this Black/Yellow. Honestly, I prefer the old Red and White Livery, but I already built that one, so I took a shot at the actual look of these locomotives. And it turns out it looks good in Lego form. It has working lights and it is motorized with 2 power functions L motors + Buwizz 2.0 I built this model using the "Vectron" Lego model From Beck and Nicolas Tbx Since the Vectron is the successor of this Eurosprinter. Their Vectron Instructions are available for free at https://open-l-gauge.eu
  6. Thank you! Actually I usea lot of stickers, but for small details, or stuff that I feel that are completely impossible to make with Lego parts. The arrows uses similar technic as the ones on the "TGV" set Horizon Express, but a little bit more complex because it has 6 rows instead 2 Thank you! I tried always aim to aRealistic Model Scale look and less "LEGO look" Thank you! Thank you so much! Me too, actually I'm not that fan of this Medway Livery :P Thank you, and thank you for not calling it "Vectron" :P
  7. SOMAFEL is today a leading company in the construction of railway tracks and overhead lines in Portugal. This locomotive is used to maneuver some Rail work materials. It used to belong to CP Comboios de Portugal. It had several different liveries, this one is the current one. This was a commissioned job for a Somafel employee, unlike my other 1400 English Electric Series, this one is not motorized, It was requested as an exhibition model only, however, it is ready to be motorized, I did leave the room, for wires and battery.

    [MOC] CP2628 (Nez Cassé)

    Hi! CP Comboios de Portugal recently gave a new color to the Nez Casse loco 2628, based on the former CP4700 from CP Carga (sold/turned to Medway) I have to be honest, I still have mixed feelings about this new livery, the orange is an iconic and complete eye-catcher, and still my favorite. However, making this one in LEGO started to grow on me. I will take some pictures alongside my Arco Coaches as soon as possible. the usual shout out to Raised and his NS1600/1800 and the Enhancements made by Erwin and Nicolas Tbx, my Nose/box design is based on their models. Circa 2000 parts 1Kg 43cm long 2 Powerfunctions L motors Buwizz 2.0 Custom working Lights Custom Vynil stickers designed by Tiago Vasconcelos

    The Century [MOC]

    Q: How many wheels? A: Yes!
  12. A historic tram connects Sintra to one of its most popular beaches, Praia das Maçãs. The line was inaugurated in 1904, but today's red vehicle dates from the 1930s. It maintains its original features, such as wooden benches and brass dials, and while it’s a slow, noisy, and bumpy ride, it’s a fun experience. The complete 13km(8 miles)-journey takes 40 minutes, passing through the rural areas of Colares towards the coast. The LEGO model has around 2000 parts (including the base/diorama) and it's motorized with Circuit Cubes it has 2 motors, One for driving, and another to invert the Rod "Panthograph" It has Room for 16 minifigs.
  13. Hi this is the same model as CP1401 but with the classic blue color scheme It has 2 PF train motors Buwizz 2.0 Ludricous (But I don't use the Ludricous mode, this is not a High-speed train :P) DYI Lights It can run alone or synchronize with the CP1401. This is part of my Consist "CP Miradouro Phase 2" which has 2 Locomotives and 5 Coaches Now, some " CP Miradouro" consists The funny thing about the real-life train is the inconsistency of the rolling stock, it's almost impossible to see the same train twice, sometimes it's just two coaches, sometimes it has two locomotives, sometimes are fully colourful with several different coaches, sometimes are the same colors, etc Now the full train has 3,60meters long, but unfortunately I don't have enough room or backdrop to take a nice photo.

    [MOC] 1930's Tram "Eletrico de Sintra"

    Ahaha, it's the wireless power! I made the base (48x16 studs) for static exhibitions and background only. Motorization was an extra. :)
  15. A couple of months ago, CP Comboios de Portugal (Portuguese Railway Company) contacted me to do an interview for their Social Media and magazine. It's in Portuguese, but I did my best to add subtitles in English

    [MOC] 1930's Tram "Eletrico de Sintra"

    Thanks! I used this https://brickset.com/parts/design-30229
  17. These Videos are Epic! Lovely detailed models!!
  18. Thank you! Thank you! I pick up trains that are matchable with Lego Colors :P Thanks! yes they make a cool vent frame! Thank you for comment this one:) yes, There is a lot of colorful Portuguese Trains that I want to see in Lego form :)
  19. Thank you so much! It is a Random tourist, someone who was there (this was filmed at São Bento Station) one Saturday morning, 2 months ago, and picked up my loco without asking when I was distracted with other stuff... I asked to not use that footage, but it was too late... They actually move the "Miradouro" Real-life train to that station to match mine, but none of the coaches has the same color/livery as mine that is the "problem" with this consist, there are several different colors for the same coaches, you will never catch the same train twice. I was also lucky to have a cab ride on the CP2600 for 10 min, one of the Railway company directors was there and invited me, but there is no footage of that because "it's not allowed" for non-employees to enter inside the locos, it was "off the record" CP was great to me. I'm very thankful for what they did, for our hobby! Thank you so much!

    [MOC] 1930's Tram "Eletrico de Sintra"

    Thank you! Someone has to test it, and the speed of this thing is huge... not! Is slow as a Snail, like the real-life one :P Thank you! I uploaded a Video made with the Cube Circuit App

    [MOC] 1930's Tram "Eletrico de Sintra"

    Thank you! They are all complaining about the noise, especially on the curves, check this "cab ride" Dracula is a "private joke", Sintra is a mystical place with a lot of fog, old palaces and castles, because it is between the ocean and mountains, and you have scenarios like this with "floating castles"

    [MOC] Sorefame 60's/70's passenger coach

    Yes, they are R16 curves Thank you! I didn't take a proper photo yet, but they are just plain boring flat wagons
  23. Sorefame (an abbreviation of Sociedades Reunidas de Fabricações Metálicas) was a Portuguese manufacturer of railway rolling stock and industrial equipment, such as dam gates equipment. The company was established in 1943. From the 1960s the company specialised in the manufacture of stainless steel carriages, principally for the Portuguese Railways (CP). The stainless steel carriages were built at the company's factory in Amadora under licence from the Budd Company of the US. (By Wikipedia) In a perfect world, this should be built in Metallic Silver, But I'm not rich, so I use several shades of grey (LBG. old grey, burned by UV grey, vanish by age grey, etc.) to give an old aesthetics. Initially, I had planned to make interior details, but this coach has already 1 KG and will be part of a train with 6 coaches. so no more bricks on it I'm using bricktracks train wheels with bearings and neodymium magnets fun fact, most of the build is an upsidedown building :P (By Wikipedia)
