    Well, Greek highways tend to be with less traffic in comparison to the ones in the cities, although that's not always true.. Yep, that's an orange painted solar powered emergency phone. I only wish I had more space for the nearby facilities I want to build. Thank you very much for your comments once again! ?

    Thank you for your kind words guys! This highway actually occurred from my necessity to create a display for my 4-studs wide trucks and vehicles. I'm a huge fan of the Classic Town & Legoland themes. I grew up building those majestic old sets and somehow got stuck to the 4-studs width for my moc vehicles. I believe they fit more properly to Lego's road plates than today's 6-studs wide cars. I'm a member of the greek GRICKS Lug (Bricks + Greeks = Gricks... ). We participate in various Lego and toys exhibitions and events mainly in Athens region but in North Greece as well. You can have a look for more of the GRICKS mocs and actions here: http://www.gricks.gr/index.php/en/ Keep mocing guys!

    Hi guys! I'm trying to upload my Flickr pictures. i follow the procedure as before copy & paste the picture's link from Flickr, but I keep getting stuck to the attached picture. The panel's background turns to light red and the "insert into post" tab doesn't react. Tried with small sizes and even small pics ~300KB, still doesn't upload. Any ideas please?

    Hey, thanks so much! You're a genuine heavy duty vehicles builder mate! Those trucks look great! Very well done!

    You're most kind! I'm pretty sure I got stuck to those early days too... ?

    Thank you very much. I totally agree about the Octan sets of the 90s, not even close to the earlier Shell ones. Probably the not so nice colour combinations, but I believe Lego did it also for a change to more "environmental friendly" reasons of those days.. Thanks so much for your kind comments. Yeah, there's a difference between European and US commercial vehicles transportation sizes. Such one is that in Europe you will mainly see 2-axle tractors with 3-axle semitrailers and the opposite on the US roads. My approach was to kind of merge both with a sence of Classic Town Legoland.. ?

    Thank you very much for your kind comments. I hadn't realised that the 1x3x1 doors were available on BL, although I have them on my wanted list.. Huge thanks for that one! ?

    Wow! Great coach! Looks so Classic Townish! Could easily be a Legoland set of that era! Congratulations man!

    I really appreciate your kind comments! I'm a big fan of the late 70s, 80s and some 90s Classic Town, Legoland vintage sealed sets. Although those two sets (1651 & 1552) were made in 6-studs, I'm also a huge fan of 4-studs wide vehicles. About ten years ago I was lucky enough to get both MAERSK sets per 2 copies. Each one sealed and each one used with complete sticker sheets. I spend hours and money in order to replicate those stickers in as much as possible detailed manner concerning dimensions, colors and thicknesses. I have kept a few sticker sheets like the ones I used in those two mocs.

    Thanx again, I do like as well the color combination and unfortunatelly I only managed to get as much as possible parts in ''Old Grey''. The tipper lifting part is a pneumatic cylinder indeed and does not work other than keeping the structure up. The logo of the tipper though is of one the major European tipping companies (Meiller Kipper - https://www.meiller.com/en/ ) and the attached picture shows my effort to get as close as I could... ;-) 05a by George Legoman, on Flickr

    Thanks guys! This is actually a kind of tribute to my father's Commercial Vehicles/Trucks Bodies Structures company. The Greek language logo appearing on the sticker is his first name, as it was the brand name too..

    This is my humble tribute to the Classic Town Promotional MAERSK Truck sets 1651 from 1980 and 1552 from 1985 adjusted to my favorite 4-wide studs mocs. Both the Maersk Blue and the Old Light Grey colors were really hard to find nowdays .. :-) 11 by George Legoman, on Flickr 02 by George Legoman, on Flickr 10 by George Legoman, on Flickr 03 by George Legoman, on Flickr 02 by George Legoman, on Flickr 03 by George Legoman, on Flickr 04 by George Legoman, on Flickr 04 by George Legoman, on Flickr 16 by George Legoman, on Flickr 18 by George Legoman, on Flickr
