A track layout for my experiments
Darthluke824 replied to Dutchiedoughnut's topic in LEGO Train Tech
Nice work on the nose of the Class 43. It would look great in different colours too! -
Now before everyone gets excited this IS NOT an announcement for new trains but a prediction on patterns. Two years ago in January the Horizon Express was released, with two year gaps inbetween the Maersk train and Emerald Night. Could there be a new train next year? Another steam train or something a bit different? Any ideas from anyone else? (Mods move this if necessary)

City Layout - Inspired by Los Angeles, California
Darthluke824 replied to parrafilmsguy's topic in LEGO Town
Really like those skyscrapers but maybe some Surfliner action? -
Wow! That's big but excellent!
-
Nice work. I built some similar but 8 studs wide for ATSF and 2 level ones for El Capitan. I too had trouble with the doors, in the end I put them on jumper plates. They looked good for the baggage car especially.

Nice work! Is there a way for the figures to access each floor though?

Very nice, I especially like the smooth roof.

Thanks for the review! I find this is a great set and is currently number 1 on my buying list. The differences between the 'sketch' model and final model aren't huge but the other has a sleekness that the model doesn't quite have.

I like the winter sets but this is VERY nice! Brick-built reindeer are very good. Excellent find! -
Improved smooth curves by AshiValkoinen
Darthluke824 replied to Ashi Valkoinen's topic in LEGO Train Tech
That would be very smooth! Since I don't have room I can't try it but it may work with large amounts of track for even bigger displays. -
Pulling Power Needed for a Complete Santa Fe?
Darthluke824 replied to Darthluke824's topic in LEGO Train Tech
Thanks for those points, I was originally going to put the motors I the B units but I may have to have some serious planning before picking up any bricks. Thanks all for the advice! I will try to keep you posted with updates. -
Hello all, I am thinking about making a Santa Fe or similar EMD-F7 train. As I may create the full train (ABBA - 10-12 Coaches) I need to know how many train motors I will need to pull this lot. The train should be close to the 10020 with the B unit being James Mathis design. As this is a WIP I have not yet fully designed the train. I will be using Power Functions train motors as 9v is getting expensive. Also rechargeable battery boxes and lights. So how many motors will I need for pulling all of this? Thanks, - darthluke

Very nice! :thumbup: It's pretty big though isn't it?

Hello, I can't remember where I read or saw a photo of the real train that the 7938 is based off as well as a brick-built one. I would like to be directed to any infomation about it as I am planning on modifing my 7938. Thanks -darthluke
-
Excellent work! I like how you have made 'The Wasp' into a Power Functions train. Do you have anymore photos of that?
-
I loved the original but this really is great! I would love to make something like this myself but I don't have the time or space.

Hello, Hope I am writing this in the correct sub-forum but I need help looking for an old LEGO set or any infomation about it. When I was at school my plasticworks teacher got the whole class to use what I remember to be a Dacta/Educational set with Technic and Pneumatic pieces. You could build multiple models but the one I remember the most is a dentists chair. It was in a small light grey box and may have had an inner plastic box like THIS. I have tried looking round but I can't seem to find infomation about it. Could you help me? Thanks -darthluke EDIT - Spelling Errors due to old keyboard. Sorry!

LEGO Star Wars 2014 Pictures and Rumors
Darthluke824 replied to Erdbeereis's topic in LEGO Star Wars
Considering half of the photo of the Cantina is cut off the other half could easily have Ponda Baba and a Bartender with bar and even a GNK Droid! I do agree the AT-AT looks exactly the same as my 2011 one. I am excited about the Star Destroyer though! -

Hello all, I have never posted on in the Technic area but I need some advice from an expert. I am looking to create a compact way using gears of slowing down a PF Motor speed that will be connected a door. I want to create a motorized door for a Star Wars base. I am going to use a standard Power Functions motor and the 1x4 Tooth Plate for the door similar to the doors of 7666. I need a way of slowing down the speed from the motor as the last time I attempted this the door jammed every time. I hope you understand what I mean. I can give pictures if needed. Thanks.
