In the streets of Eurobricks' Trains & Town, we like to keep the roads neat and clean.

There's no better EB member than Macoco that exemplifies this phylosophy

with his recent review of LEGO set 7242 Street Sweeper.

Make sure you take a moment to visit our town; and if you see a little dirt,

just let Macoco know. Thanks for visiting!

Member and LEGO Ambassador Matija Grguric brings us his latest creation: Castle New Rock.

Gather around all you ghosts and goblins...

As the wind begins to howl, and the air begins to chill, the haunting season fast approaches.

There's something strange going on inside the dark sheds of Train Tech as our finest train builders have been keeping quiet about their latest building endeavors.

Through the darkness of a half open door, a shimmer of something black, shining and haunting emerges.

What is it, you ask?

It may be a Ghost Train, as part of the Spook'n Up Train Tech Building Challenge.

Not quite a contest, no rules to get in the way, just a collective celebration of frightful delight.

Do you have what it takes to Build a Ghost Train? Why don't you try and share it within Train Tech, or are you too scared to enter?

Staff are welcome as well.

We're dying to see your Ghost Train! Bahaaa haaa haaa haaa... :skull:

What's got the Train Tech community NOT busy building LEGO trains?

Project Train Start

What's Project Train Start you ask?

Project Train Start is a new Train Tech initiative in which the best LEGO train builders, members of our very own EB Train Tech community, are developing a list of "Train Tips" for beginners and those new to the LEGO Train hobby. This work in process will be a community effort that will serve as a valuable resource for new train builders. Train Tech receives a lot of questions from aspiring train fans that "just can't seem to get started" with LEGO trains. From inspiration to building tips, Project Train Start will certainly help them out.

If you have a few tips for new LEGO Train fans, you can certainly contribute your thoughts to Project Train Start.
