  1. The Sandcrawler was the set take me out from dark age,i buy on ebay years after the set come out,and (for me)is the best set from star wars. I have motorize mine because it need to be motorized(and remote controlled), But your creation is unbelievable AMAZING!!!I hope you can finish and i want to see it live,so I'm a conformist! and send me a PM when you finish it and take it to an exposition! From Italy all the best for your creation!!
  2. in Italy the station of big city like Milano central,Rome central,napoli,torino,firenze the rail stop in the station ,so when the train restart you have the loco at the end,but the operator decoupling the loco at the end and place a new one on the other side of the train,so the train can restart. In the line between milano\roma there is two chainge of the loco(normal train)or there is high speed train(Freccia rossa)and have a loco at both end of the train. For what I know about the italian railway there is not to much turnatable for train ,because the loco have two front.
  3. Since I was a young boy I love trains,I' love railway and old time steam engine. But...trains model was to expensive for my family,and need a lot of space a good layout. But..there is lego,cheaper of trai model and have a "correct"scale for minifig. The blue era was just finish,and the 4,5\12v is come(12 v was expensive!!)and my Father bring me at home the 7720. Amazing,Unbelievable!!!the signal stop the train,the railway crossroad fit exatly in my roadplate. I was the happiest child of my town,for a lot of year,and my mother too,because when I finish to play I can take everything inside a box ready for a new adventure..... Some years ago,I open that box,some white part are yellow,but everything was there,and the adventure return. Now i pay myself for lego,but 12v still expansive!!! Years ago lego gimme real life,how many minifig game have train and town fit perfectly,i remeber when fight for lego and i say: -LEGO has letters and you can put inside a mailbox,tell me another game with this....naa,playmobil don't have!!

I'm a Mechanical engineer,i work for a packing company,i made the machine for fill bags(concrete,sugar,flour,fertilizer,ABS)and palletizer,and wrapping machine(stretch film wrapper)the machine who made wooden pallet with a pile of bag on it,and cover with plastic film. I travel in all the world,one costumer is aside of Vestas,and for me is a great emotion when with plane Iwas on the Billund airport.... But i was in march and Legoland was closed . That was in my Dark age,but in a little piece of my heart someting say LEGOLEGOLEGO!!! Normally i don't made moc,i don't have the time and the fantasy,i prefere to collect set,build up and keep aside in plastic bag ready for Legofest(in Italy). But all my friends from ITLUG want a moc from me...and this happend. Now if somebody for a good price have a 10179,10182and some rail for monorail(not expansive call me)OOOPS OFF TOPIC!!! Excuse me moderator...

  15. The question is not correct,iI think you have to ask how much you spend for LEGO train(stop). Because there is a lot of way to spend money for that, I have quit for a little because in september I find,near myhome one colmplete collection,and I buy it,only for 1500 euro . Now we are in Feb,and in Gen I find another complete collection for 1250 Euro Is something like six month i clean old LEGO models,city and train. In briclkink i don't spend to much,because i need only some small parts to compete some set where this are missing. And Everything i write here nobody have to tell to my GF...I think she don't appriciate
  16. OhOhO.....elevator belt for coal...that's the future...and my present work....if that is a new set is very good for me;a connection between the new seaport and this with the belt conveyor for truck and train!!! Now I need more space and more Money

  21. benvenuto, Italians do it bitter!!!
  22. Great work, But you stole my idea ,i just change the 9v motor with a pf,and now i'm waiting for the parts(battery and ir reciver). After i copy something.
  23. Grande Teazza!!Bravo!!
  24. No that's no good ! I'have to buy 3 of this,and that' no good for me!! My lady at home maybe kill me,but....really a very good set!! Come on Lego,made it for all not only for maersk company!!
  25. My Favorite Train station is the 7822,the minifig can reach all the rail,you can place light brick,and there is a big clock;the 12 v era was the best!
