I have received my copy and appreciate the effort put into it. The first part is a good primer for almost anybody working with LEGO and sort of reminds me of the Master Builder Academy, but condensed into the essentials. The history section is nice and allows people to see where LEGO trains have come from and identify various sets and parts from the 60's on. The part where various techniques for building trains is a boon to all and exceptionally detailed. I love how it's accomplished in the old school method of instructions. All told, an excellent work.

Sweeeeeeet!

You've got a good locomotive there. Good amounts of detail and the lights give it a little extra.

Sweet build. It captures the essence of the eagle well.

Great looking set of logging locomotives. You did well with your research and implementation.

That's a great piece of MOW equipment. The details are all there. Good luck with the contest.

Good looking futuristic locomotive. I see European electric locomotive influences in it.
-
It's a nice model of a good looking train. Your decal work is top notch. Too bad looks don't count for much in real life service. The size is crazy even at 4 wide.

Classic Space Train, Space Train, SPACE TRAIN!
Feuer Zug replied to Feuer Zug's topic in LEGO Train Tech
Thanks all. When they the train must have Swoosh, I instantly thought about going classic space. From there, I figured rockets were a big thing so why not put the rocket on the train.- 4 replies

I love it. Christmas themed, but done in an innovative way. Also, I like thinking about warm weather for Christmas instead of the wind and rain I have now.

That's a great collection. It must have been fun to rebuild them all. Enjoy.

This train was created for the Brick Model Railroad OcTRAINber contest. Rarely seen on the lunar rails is the classic Space Train. This 69 stud long locomotive is an all-in-one train setup for transporting and launching missiles. Up front is the engineer’s compartment with full computer support to enable one man operations. Behind him is the electrical cabinet with satellite communications dish (PF receiver and AAA battery box). After the transformer is the crew compartment (roof opens for ease of access). Designed for comfort, it includes a bunk, microwave, and small pantry cabinet. Besides the creature amenities, it has two workstations. The right side wall console is primary satellite and orbital management while the aft console is for missile operations. Separated from the crew by a duratanium firewall is the missile bay. Due to the need to launch missile from any location to reach the desired orbit, the train itself is designed as the launch platform. When the top hatch opens, the missile is raised to launch position while doors on the side open up to allow the hot gasses to escape. The locomotive is capable of carrying one missile with satellite payload at a time. Behind the missile storage area is the power reactor, defensive plasma cannon, and thrusters. The plasma cannon turret can rotate 270 degrees around and the barrel can elevate to 80 degrees. The main engines provide the majority of the thrust while cruising the lunar landscape. The Swoosh 69 studs long, Power Function equipped, capable of handling R40 curves, and the lights turn on too! Benny would so approve.

Ah, ok. I didn't notice the edited date on the original post, so I went with the last picture in line. My mistake. Both color schemes look good.
-
Looks good. It reminds me of southern California stations. The palm trees and yellow color really make it work.
-
The whole setup is great. Plenty of detail all around and everything blends together. And the Duplo greenhouse is a scream.
-
Nice work. Compared to the pictures, you've done a good job in capturing the essence of the 189 class in so small a space.
-
Now that's a cargo terminal. Great work at motorizing the place.
