    I hav experienced it with the Maersk train tiles. Contact LEGO for replacement parts!

    @Duq: Tonight on my way to and back from a meeting in Utrecht I will pass that point. It nowadays also had a flyover b.t.w. the Dutch railnet is too busy for such a crossings these days. Here another interesting one: Mr. Spilt (the source) says: this one is used near Haarlem (close to Schiphol) for freight trains not having to pass Haarlem Central Station. The caternary seems to be automatically raisable / retractable.

    you should also include a resistor shouldn't you?! 12V 20mA and an LED voltage of ±3V so 11 / 20mA so 9V left, 9V / 20mA = 450 Ω and a good value (E12) will then be 470Ω.

    A nice MOC! So the girl in front is luring the horse into the butchery?! ;) I also noticed the fish, your butcher has fish? Ours doesn't (I think), but he might be eating it tonight for himself of course (and just traded it with the fisherman that got a steak for it in return?!).

    Nice job PeoplesFarmer, what the others said, plenty of ideas to extend it even further!

    might include a motor than as well?! All 1985+ train sets that we have seen that included tracks also had a train with a motor.

    Hi MizFin,, why don't you start introducing yourself. About that train, you use the PF XL motor like in the instructions? What if you run the XL motor disconnected from the train itself? And can you manually turn the wheels. Did you notice that the left wheels are 45 degrees turned from the right wheels...

    Very neat. Good use of those minifig base plates!!!

    @domboy: Those stickers (BNSF etc.) are very difficult to reproduce. They have white and metallic ink. Also LEGO used half tones in their design. I am almost finished with Santa Fe Super Chief / BNSF / Santa Fe cars. The half tones are the most problematic, especially creating (what I think) exhausts that sit on the sides of the Santa Fe cars.

    my BNSF version is finished. I'm still struggling with the half-tones for the car stickers of the Santa Fe. Will up the stickers next weekend. Tonight an event about signage so I will also try to get input there :) (B.t.w. we of course not only print the stickers but also cut them just like LEGO does :))

    very nice job! Also the snow pattern etc.

    14V?! Should be 12V, so 14V is too much! 800mA is about 40 LED's so I'm puzzled how it can draw 800mA...
  21. JopieK
    could be a commercial set indeed!
  22. JopieK
    other Dutch promotional sets include two of the ANWB (emergency vehicle repair service): And the newer one: I have the old one, my brother the newer one.

    Well, I found a picture of it... link since it is very wide: link See in the middle just behind the crane, it is that truck but you can't see the front.

    Design by itself? You are thinking about evolutionary algoritms or something like that? Have a nice and smooth rendering option and support stop motion ideas would be a thing that I would love... (I'm a software engineer b.t.w.)

    Mostly classic trains, but also newer trains. I have had the 7740 and 7710 from my childhood, but also have some Emerald Nights, Maersk and the PF trains. For my work I use NXT / Technic (/ EV3?!), but at home I'm indeed into trains and town / city.
