Fully agree....but I must acknowledge you have done a good job with the Trance Am nice playing with words also. But what is that black symbol on the hood ? A Lego equivalent to the "fire bird" on the real Pontiac....or... ???
-
Unbelievably good creation one of the best train stations I have ever seen. I loved your gantry box - in fact that got my vote during TTCE, but this train station is even better.
-
Seeing the yellow freight locomotive was somewhat a disappointment. I was hoping for some new train windows 2 x 6 x 2 in yellow, but this looks exactly like the familiar cab window: Visit Bricklink And the crane looks identical with the former cargo crane 4514: Visit Bricklink
-
I'd love to lay my hands on that new yellow cargo train. As for the red passenger train....I am no too sure....
-
Brillant design Lots of nice details, I like !!!!
-
V-LC-18C Some pitcures of a heavy transport I built. Decal in the rear is from set 7900. EDIT: Front-loader is inspired by similar work by P Normandin and Steven Ashbury (and probably others as well...) Comments are welcome.....

..and I am just back from the beach in sunny Morocco This is truly a great locomotive...but is it possible to run on normal track beeing so long ??? I saw the compettion on Flickr (beeing a member of the same group there) but the due date was then so close I didn't have time to participate, allthough that would have been an interesting challenge. Hope to see more of your designs in the future

During the recent AFOL meeting in Sweden, one member displayed a fantastic farm building. As an accessory, I tried to make a typical Swedish style milk tanker truck. As always for me, design is in 6-wide. I haven't seen anyone else using these wheels as tank elements (yet ?) Any comments and feedback is most welcome, there is defenitely room for improvements.
-
Always nice to see your detailed creations. I also like Renault Magnum since it has such a lego friendly design. Below a 6-wide version that I made some time ago. I think your is more true to the original, but I have my own rule to only make truck moc:s in 6-wide......and then this was the best I managed.
-
Does anyone know if it is over for good ???? Or is it just temporary ??
-
Thanks for advices. I was actually not thinking this was a "street creation" with cobblestone, but more a rough terrain just besides the trail (footpath) to a village. That also explain the "random flowers".

A simple yet elegant design

101d Ever since Trevor quit plundering, he tried to figure out a way to make an honest living and still send a sublime message to his fellow ex-pirates, that he was alive and kicking

Great overall looks, and I really like this colour scheme. Dark red and tan is one of my favorite combinations. It seems you had to use quite a number of dark red plates under the windows
-
Great realistic look, it's really easily recognizeable. Personally I am not so fond of such "wide" vehicles, so I would prefer making it in 4- or 5 studs, but I assume it'll be very hard to keep any resemblance with the original as you successfully achieved with your 8-wide version.
-
It looks SUPER very nice colour scheme and overall realistic look.
-
I made a few small adjustments, so now it looks as you wanted and described above For all four "cylinders", when extended max or min, there is nothing sticking out. I will post some pictures later. Thanks for good advice, Milan - I must admit it looks more elegant and realistic now.
-
It's 30studs long. I use a relative scale and compared to my other MOC locomotives it has a correct lenght. But you are right in that sense that basically all Lego trains are too short compared to trains IRL, especially wagons.
-
Nicely done! Good looking front with those angeled front lights

Acc to Wikipedia: The Sr1 is a class of electric locomotives built for VR (Finnish railways). These 25kV locomotives were built in the Soviet Union at the Novocherkassk Electric Locomotive Factory between 1973 and 1985. Electrical equipment for the locomotives was supplied by the Finnish company Oy Strömberg Ab ( later part of ABB). I built a replica in 6-wide (as usual) for the past weekends AFOL meeting in Sweden. I haven't seen any Finnish locomotives before on eurobricks, so it's about time And here's the original: Visit My Website
