    Some very interesting techniques in the propulsion of the monorail
  2. UrbanErwin
    Great little engine, perhaps a stupid question but did you also fit a IR-receiver in it?
  3. UrbanErwin
    The model looks great, even though I don't like the look of the prototype. I especially like your solution for the tender bogies
  4. UrbanErwin
    I think it will have some great potential, especially with 9V tracks, I have pledged for one receiver to test look if I can power track and switches with it. @ Pasztorl: I was wondering if it is possible to power a Sbrick through a Pf Extension/Conversion wire and a 9V traincontroller.

    I had seen the pictures and I love the setup. The first time I saw the plans of a joint layout I was quite sure it would be awesome but it turned out even better. :thumbup:

    Thank you! I made some small improvements, the footplate is extended with 1 stud and the transmission is changed. When I have some spare money, I will shorten the boiler with 2 studs. USRA 0-8-0 V2 by UrbanErwin(EPJL), on Flickr PS. I was thinking of making a LDD file for it, would there be interest in it?

    Thanks for the feedback, I will post updated pictures soon. Thank you Thanks, a youtube video is good idea

    ... or at least that was what it was supposed to look like [EDIT] V2 with LDD file [/EDIT] Hello all, This is my latest steam engine, based on a USRA 0-8-0. USRA 0-8-0 by UrbanErwin(EPJL), on Flickr It features BBB Medium drivers. The thing is powered by a M-motor, and receives current through a emptied 9V train motor (don't worry, it broke before I took it apart) It features some pressure gauges. USRA 0-8-0 by UrbanErwin(EPJL), on Flickr I originally intended to add a decoupler based on this design, but the tender would become too long to look good with the engine itself. The light gray area is for a logo which I still have to create and print. USRA 0-8-0 by UrbanErwin(EPJL), on Flickr More pictures Thanks for looking, improvement points are appreciated

    A small update, more probably coming this weekend. Third progress shots by UrbanErwin(EPJL), on Flickr Third progress shots by UrbanErwin(EPJL), on Flickr The building is supposed to be some kind of generator building.

    Thanks Zephyr I think you're right.
  11. UrbanErwin
    Thanks. I like looking progress pictures of others so I did post my own to stimulate others to do the same. Thanks
  12. UrbanErwin
    The thing you posted a picture of is a rotation sensor for an RCX I would suggest buying a PF motor.
  13. UrbanErwin
    I haven't banned anyone. My brother couldn't care less about my Lego and my parents are always afraid to break stuff when they touch something so they ask advice on how to pick something up.

    Finally building again :)

    Hello all, I haven't posted something for a while. mainly because I have resorted all my bricks. Anyway here is what I've been busy with lately: First raw sketch for LowLUG by UrbanErwin(EPJL), on Flickr And here are the first two modules Second progress shots by UrbanErwin(EPJL), on Flickr Bonus MOC I never posted here: And for the interested: The topic on the forum of Lowlug which this is going te be part of (Dutch link)
  16. UrbanErwin
    I really like this design. I like the trick you used to attach the front light to the boiler.
  17. UrbanErwin
    I missed these, they look great.
  18. UrbanErwin
    It looks like a pretty sweet engine, I didn't know there existed engines like this.
  19. UrbanErwin
    @ Haddock51: I don't think the main purpose of the smooth curves is the speed, but realism. If I'm correct Ashi Valkoinen builds his trains at 8-wide which means these curves are much closer to a real curve. Edit: To make my point more clear: here is a sample (not mine) IMG_7695 by Cale Leiphart, on Flickr This train would look ridiculous on regular curves.

    In a personal believe, I don't think new parts are necessary every year, but this is mainly I am discovering (for me) new pieces almost every day. (This problem might solve itself when I will buy more new sets. ) This doesn't mean I am against new parts every year though.
  21. UrbanErwin
    Some are explained here: http://www.eurobricks.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=33335
  22. UrbanErwin
    Pretty cool, how did you make the walls at the inside white, if I may ask?
  23. UrbanErwin
    Not quite rare or old but I think mine is: http://www.bricklink.com/catalogPG.asp?P=30032&colorID=8
  24. UrbanErwin
    Thanks
  25. UrbanErwin
    A clean and nice build
