[pid][/pid] 121D After being on the Eurobricks Forums for over a year, I have hardly ever seen a Privateer ship in this forum. So, here is a pretty little ship for all of you to admire. The ship's figure head. Ou La La. The back figure head of some martyred Saint. The captain that drinks like a fish. I mean, just look at all that booze. The cook. Looks like he is ready to cook up some cannonball soup. Feel free to comment. Always entertaining, always inspiring, always:

Recently, I have been watching a series on YouTube called The British Railway Series. I have seen many engines on it, including a very interesting one. Ladies and gentlemen, bricks and studs , I would like to introduce: Deltic Now for the part when I bore you half to death with the engine's history. English Electric absorbed the company Napier & Son into its large business and saw that the use of the marine Deltic engine would be suitable for propelling railway locomotives. DELTIC (or DP1) was their demonstrator locomotive, painted in French blue with cream stripes and whiskers, it stunned the linesiders of the day. Deltic, built in 1955, was tested on the Midland Region, followed by the Eastern Region, where it was retired from service after a powerplant failure in 1961. It is preserved at the National Railway Museum's branch of Shildon And on to what all of you are waiting for: The Build As you may have guessed, this engine is based closely to a mirror-imaged Santa Fe Super Chief. A view of the driver's cab. The gas-turbine engine. For more images, click here. For more information on the British Railway Series, click here. Always entertaining, always inspiring, always:

I think that this MOC is enough to make any Ninjago Ninja want to live in it. Great work!

Before anyone asks, I am NOT a redcoat. I just have too much free time on my hands. Anyways, on to the build. A bird's-eye view. The second-class ship. Two unlucky reds in a small lifeboat. The big cheeses on the main ship. The Commodore's quarters. Not really much of a space; just a chair, cheese-crate and map. Old baldy and his cannons. Old officer in the front. "Walk the plank, you sickly mut!" "Aargh, this water be freezin'. Arrgh." "I guess next time you'll think, eh?" Comments and Questions are welcome. Always entertaining, always inspiring, always:

Very nice. I have seen a Big Boy in person at Lauritzen Gardens, Omaha.

First he's a pirate, and now a knight. Will he ever make up his mind?!

Well done, CB. The BR Class 08 shunters were once the most popular locomotives used by BR. Yet there are still a few left today.

My Grandma gave me some Flexible track for Christmas a year ago. When my engine went over it, it made a loud rumbling noise.

That's a very distinguished locomotive. It seems that the Emerald Night has a wee bit of competition.

Thank you for all of your help. I have a 12V DC at home. I'll try that one out for size.

Recently for Christmas, I got the 8878 Battery box, but not the charger for it. I have a battery charger at home, but I don't know if it is okay for me to take the batteries out of it. Does anybody know how to recharge it without the 8887 Power Functions Transformer? Always entertaining, always inquiring, always:

I like your creation, though Queen Elizabeth did have a bit more hair.

Happy Thanksgiving! No, I mean it. This very fourth Thursday of November is Thanksgiving Day. In the United States, that is. Before you carve that big, fat turkey on your table, here is an appetizer for all AFOL's: The First Thanksgiving Now for history on this event. If you read my last post on the Mayflower, you know that 102 pilgrims came over on a tiny ship to the New World in order to escape the persecution by the Church of England. After their awful first winter at Plymouth, nearly half the population was dead. Next spring, a Native American named Samoset came to the small village and said, "Welcome, Englishmen. My name is Samoset," in almost perfect English. See, before the Pilgrims came, there were other Europeans living along the coasts of Cape Cod. Samoset learnt English from the fisherman along the shore. Samoset was a member of the Wampanoag tribe living nearby Plymouth. The Wampanoags, unlike the Powhatan tribes in Virginia, were peaceful people. They hardly had a battle with the Pilgrims at Plymouth. One of their tribe members, Squanto, was originally a member of the Patuxet tribe that lived on the land the Pilgrims were on now. Squanto was kidnapped by Thomas Hunt and taken to Spain as a slave. With the help of some Spanish monks, Squanto escaped from Spain to England. In England, he worked for John Slaney, who taught him English and gave him back his freedom. In 1619, Squanto returned to his native New England, but when he finally arrived, no one was there to welcome him. Squanto's tribe had all died of plague from European explorers. Squanto sought refuge with the Wampanoag tribe. Two days later, Samoset brought Squanto before the Pilgrims, saying he knew better English. Squanto taught the Pilgrims how to plant corn and catch fish. Later, Samoset brought along Chief Massasoit, and the and the Pilgrim leaders had a peace treaty. That fall, there was such a great harvest that the Pilgrims just had to give thanks to God for bringing them this far. The "thanksgiving" feast they had occurred in mid-October and lasted for three days. The feast they had consisted of water foul, fish, shellfish, fruits, corn (of course), and other delicious foods. Samoset brought over ninety of his men to the feast, and brought over turkeys, venison, and other foods to the Pilgrims. This tradition lived on through the hearts of Americans, including George Washington, Abraham Lincoln, and FDR. It was made a legal holiday on December 26, 1941; as celebrated on each fourth Thursday of November. The MOC This design was recycled from my earlier Plymouth MOC, and more houses were added, along with a field of corn and pumpkins with a fisherman and his crabby catch. Literally. I even decided to go back in time and join them. Sorry, Mr. Turkey. Real Pilgrims aren't full of feathers and have a red-dangly-thing under their mouth. The bountiful corn harvest and pumpkin patch. This was one yummy feast, though I can't believe I still need to visit my Grandma and Uncle yet! Happy Thanksgiving, and God bless you! Always entertaining, always inspiring, always:

I don't have enough normal bricks.

Very well done, CB. The Narrow gauge engine on the bridge kind of reminds me of Talyllyn, and engine that works on the Rheilfford Talyllyn in Wales. The BR Class 09 is quite admirable, being it the most successful engine in BR history. All in all, I love it, and I hope to see more posts.
