    [MOC] Alsthom - CP1906 (Diesel Locomotive)

    That's some crazy assembly you've got there, really nails the look of the prototype

    Little Crane

    Indeed, that is tiny impressive. As Toastie already said, "the smaller the MOCs the harder it gets." And I had the same thought as Murdoch17, two trailers on one handcar... oooof! Great work getting so much detail in such a small MOC.

    <MOC> MÁV Class 424 Large Scale Model V2

    Oh wow, that's an impressive build. Great job capturing all of the details of the prototype and an interesting history of this workhorse.

    James Mathis' Santa Fe Dome Car

    You have to save it as a text file then change the extension to .mpd and then the LDraw software SHOULD recognize it as being readable. If not, right click on the icon and choose "open with". I suspect the content is just the source of the .png files in the brickshelf gallery

    James Mathis' Santa Fe Dome Car

    It seems like three ideas collided in the Santa Fe dome car. In 2004 James and another builder came up with their own versions of a dome and had a friendly meet at BrickFest PDX Jame's page and teunisdavey's page of the same event Then in 2005 I wandered on the scene with my own dome car design that then inspired James to build another dome, this one had two versions and the instructions for v2 is still on line. Only problem is that it uses VERY rare windscreens for the dome.

    Problem with Fx Brick's P40 Switch Track

    This sounds like a question first to be directed to FxBricks customer support. I do not have any of their switches yet, but I had expressed concern over the fact that the original prototype powered both tracks all the time. Shortly before release of these switches, I believe Michael Gail had said that no, in the production switches there is a jumper on the underside. If you remove the jumper it will function like a normal lego 9v switch (but with better curvature). Now like the Lego 9v switches, the outside rail is always powered since it is a continuous strip of metal, it is only the inside rail that will lose continuity without the jumper.

    Warning! It looks like your intercity train is trying to make a break for it by taking control of the switches
