Ex cinno

It is not easy to deal with a great competitor as Lego Train 12 Volt but i think we were able to well reproduce, although in a different way, the original model. The pictures i posted was from a not powered model but i have upgraded it and now it's run smoothly.

Thank for your words: Two new E444 at the same time in the forum it's a strange thing but a nice one for Italian trains. Thank "Man with a hat" i tried to do my best and i am happy you appreciated my work.

Today test on the tracks for motorized version of my E444. Another E444, after the one published a few days ago by Lego Train 12 volts: be patient, you see that is a model that appeals to many. The E444 is an Italian locomotive built from the end of the 60's. Known by fans with the nickname "turtle" had a livery composed of oriental blue stripes on gray pearl background. My moc was inspired by a similar model made some years ago by another Lego enthusiast, Helos: http://www.eurobricks.com/forum/index.php?/forums/topic/61979-moc-e444-the-turtle-electric-fs-locomotive/ I have replaced the Bright blue he used with dark blue, because I consider it closer to the original, although the pieces made in this color are more limited and resulted in some changes to the structure of the model.

Oh my God, I have my own E444 moc ready on the shelve and I cannot present it because i missed one piece from my bricklink order and to-day you published your. Well, i am a very unlucky man. Anyway your Loco is beautifull as ever and your passenger coaches too.

While waiting for bricklayers to build the surrounding wall , some big green trees have grown just around my Palladian Villa Pisani, just in time to welcome the first guests invited to the Masquerade Ball. What better occasion to wear my new original Lego t-shirt coming straight from my daughter’s trip to Hong Kong this summer? I really enjoyed taking part at the amazing event “Collego la mente ”, held last week near my city, Bologna, Italy and show my latest moc updates!

Beautiful trains, expecially those italians. I like them all and just now i am workinng on a E444 model. Your version inspired me a lot.

Very good job. I think your pantographs are how an icing on the cake.

Amazing moc, with so many details.

Amazing moc, with so many great details inside and out.

Very inspired moc, with a lot of stunning detail and extensive use of original solutions.

Your building looks really great, with all the details in the right place. An heritage house that spreads all around the spirit of his history.

Great work, your ship seems ready to sail. And thanks for sharing instructions.

Thank you all: I'm glad you enjoyed my work.

Your flattering words are much more than I could ever expect, mainly because they come from a real lego trains master. Thank you very much.

A greeting to all fans of lego trains. My collection lacked a closed general freight made in 7 stud: well, not only that to be honest, but a closed carriage was just what I wanted. With this brown model I filled the gap and i think that the final result it's not so bad.

Beautiful moc, with so many details. Anyway, three men at dinner with their hat on, is not stuff for Grand Palace Hotel.

Amazing front for your locomotive and great colors scheme too.

Very nice level of detailing and beautiful livery. Great work, as usual.

Stunning lights, stunning mechanisms, stunning buildings, stunning animations and sure, stunning video.

At the moment no, may be in the future.

Very good job, with a lot of amazing details.

When i built it with Ldd the model was a little different and yes, there were some more parts under the chassis. But in real life I made some changes to grant more rotation to the wheels. Here the picture of the Ldd version.

Very nice moc carebear around a great theme like basketball although, given the sizes, I would have called it gym rather than arena.

Not sarcasm at all. Your pictures fully return the atmosphere of a working environment. It seems to hear the sounds and noises of the coaling bunker.
