Ex cinno

Thanks for sharing your video Hod Carrier. I'm very interested in this subject and I hope to see the next experiments soon.

Prize A for me on day 14: thank a lot. So, after the digital version of my tree, I built the physical one. Merry Christmas you all and a special thank to CopMike for his fantastic raffle. Merry Christmas by Claudio, su Flickr

The bricks that dreans are made off...

Hi all. Another Italian locomotives reproduced in just only 3 studs: this time is the legendary E424, in her beautiful Isabella livery. E424 1 by Claudio, su Flickr E424 2 by Claudio, su Flickr E424 3 by Claudio, su Flickr

Hi all again. Add two picture of a new version of my E444 mini moc. Now the blue lines are the same as the original train.

For those who like the "Turtle", an italian loco built in the 70's, but find it's 7 wide format too demanding, I propose a mini version of the E444 to only 3 studs: I think the puppy makes its discreet figure next to her older sister.

Thanks for your nice words and yes, I think this is a pretty way to expose own trains at events.

I saw that you all appreciate the background overall and I agree with you, just because I think is more original than my Finanziera. I built the diorama to valorize my trains but in the end, it conquered the scene. Things that happen, i am satisfied the same.

Here I reproduced in 7 width format an italian Z1 passenger carriage. It's livery is the unusual ”two shades of grey”, mainly known as the “Finanziera". The diorama exhibitor is my last custom creation, especially designed to add some value to the trains.

Hi all, here some pictures of my new trains exhibitors because i was tired to simply put my mocs on the tracks during the Lego events. Some more are in construction with different background so if you like it stay tuned.

Nice model as always my friend, even if is not an italian loco the Db 200 is a very classic one.

Very nice models, I wouldn't know which is the best because they all have something special. Great work.

I am without words: your work is stunning.

Thanks Asper for your post. I'm glad you enjoyed it Man with a hat. Said from you I consider it a great compliment, although I think my E444, the Turtle, is what I did best.

Thanks you all for your nice words.

Thanks you all for your words. By the way the carriage weighs 822 grams

Yes TechnicRCRacer, determine the right proprotion for the windows it took me some time.

For now display only but space for a motor is not a problem.

This passenger coaches was built in nearly 1500 specimens in the 1930's and 40's and deservedly named Centoporte (one hundred doors), because each compartment had its own outside access. Its width is set to 7 studs and it took me more than 1400 pieces to reproduce it.

Hi Vliebricker, thank for your words. Anyway the model you found in internet is not the same i reproduced here. My D 145 is one of the 2000 series while your is of the 1000 series. And one of the the difference is just that "kind of bump at the cabine". D145 00 by Claudio, su Flickr Here some pictures from the other side of the D 145, that is a little different.

My latest project, always related to Italian historical trains, is the diesel locomotive D 145, built for the F.S. by the Fiat Ferroviaria Savigliano in the early 80's. For its unusual orange livery was immediately renamed "Lobster". Width of the moc is set to 7 studs.

The BB 150 is an electric diesel locomotive produced in 13 units, at the end of the 50's, by the Officine Reggiane for Italian Southest Railways. Here I reproduced the number BB 162, which has been completely restored some years ago and is now used for tourism and historical recollections. Its width is as always at 7 studs.

Thank you all for your nice words.

Your diorama looks really good, with so much details to see around.

Hi Beck thank for your suggestion. May be that bogie look close to the front but that's exactly what I saw in some photos of the BB 169. Anyway I'll try to move it a stud back to see how it look. Thank LEGO Train 12 Volts for your words, but i think my collection does not even approach yours. I totally agree with your words: seven forever....
