This is so beautiful! So many nice details - my favorite is the logo.

Great bus with some clever details. I also like the green bus-stop.

Great building. Very nice colors and interior!

I'm always happy to see new creations of you. This nice trains shows a lot of details. Very realistic!

What a beautiful house!

This is a great model. The colours chosen for the minifigs really create the atmosphere of the 40s. The trams are wonderfuls models and the pictures quality is outstanding. Really great!

This is really great! The scale is fantastic. Never thought that it is possible to build working trains 4-wide before I've seen your work. (Must be a great layout if trains like this are combined with Jonathan Lopes' "4wide" creations on mocpages)

This is great! Thank you for sharing this beautiful pictures.

Beautiful coaches!

Nice steamer with beautiful colors!

Great build! A lot of clever technical details. And it looks like the original Engine.

Great MOC - so many details to discover (and great presentation)

Hi Frank, I just looked at your pictures on brickshelf. This is a beautiful engine.

This is a very accurate model. I like it very much!

This is a nice little train! The picture with the front view is great. This scale looks very interesting...

Great Unimog models! (I'm a great fan of LBB)

That's great! Looking forward to this.

That's great! I like this style.

This is a nice house! And the piano is beautiful. We (my daughter and I) will now rebuild a similar house soon. We like it very much!

Thank you so much for sharing this! There are so many ideas and techniques included. Your trees are great! Thank You!

That's beautiful. Not only the town hall, the complete layout is great. I like the fountain.

That's a beautiful locomotive! And it's only 6wide and is driven by power fcuntions! So far I failed to build a similar engine driven by M motors. But your build is motivating to try it again. (My attempts were either too slow or destructed themselves after 5 minute...)

Hello all, I've read this forum for quite a while, and thought it's about time to introduce myself. This forum is always very interesting to read. I started building LEGO trains two years ago. My kids brought me back to LEGO and now I'm spending more time with the bricks than they do... So far I built mostly trains around the area I live ( and ). Currently I'm trying to implement some kind of train control system with the IR PF protocol and a micro-controller connected to the PC (see also this post: http://www.eurobricks.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=62306&view=findpost&p=1130245 ).Looking forward to become a bit more active here. Thank you all and play well! Steffen

Hello SuperCow, mostlytechnic, My name is Steffen and I'm new to eurobricks and have read the topics about all the activities around the IR PF with great interest. Based on SuperCow's Code found on the arduino forum I also build a PF IR remote. Thank you for sharing your code! I did not know about the updated code, but will have a closer look at this. (I also have range problems, but I guess I do not have the proper resistors in my amplifier circuit). My application is a bit different. I do not want to build a manual remote but want to control the different LEGO motors from my PC. So I added a simple parser to the arduino. Commands can be sent over the serial interface using the USB connection and the virtual serial port. I implemented commands to set the velocity, halt a motor, toggle the extra address bit and output an "impulse". The impulse command sets one motor to maximum velocity and then floats it - useful for train switches. The state of digital input channels can also be queried. With this I'm now able to control up to 16 PF motors with my mouse. I'm planning to have some kind of feedback, where the trains are, so I can implement a simple train control system. Probably the feedback may not be built with LEGO (reed sensors, light barriers, ...?) To test all this I have a simple GUI where I can add motors on the fly: (currently this is implemented in python, but providing modules in other languages should be easy, since the protocol is simple ASCII over a serial interface) Of course this also can be used to build some colorful GUI for the 8043 excavator, ... What about collecting all this code on sourceforge or some other code hosting platform? I think other people might find this also interesting. best, Steffen
