  1. Hello everyone, the European journey is now complete! I wanted to conclude with Denmark: the nation that has created Lego toys ...paying tribute with the magnificent DSB Nohab! The hardest part was making the three-axle trolleys, but searching on the net I've never found anything I liked. I know that the bogie I made will disappoint the purists but in its simplicity this is what everyone would want! To make it, I've used a Dremel and I'm quite satisfied with the result. To power the locomotive, I have perhaps invented a Columbs' egg: using a normal train motor, vertically oriented, inside the body of the locomotive. To satisfy the overall dimensions I've realized this machine in 7 studs. As always the model has a switch to turn on the front and back lights; the power switch is behind the windscreen and the receiver is mounted upside down under the main body. Have fun with photos... For the next few months, after some interludes with cars from Spain and Italy, the latest creations will be from Germany and only Germany! After that my trains collection will be DEFINITIVELY completed ... stay tuned!
  2. Thanks for this highly detailed review ...the minifigs are so many!
  3. What a beautiful and expensive wagon! I like how it's huge and how looks the cab with all those windows!
  4. I totally agree!
  5. Original idea ...beautiful MOC!

  10. Epic building! At first glance it doesn't seem even done in lego ...gorgeous!
  11. Nice new one dtomsen! Very nice livery!
  12. Wow this is huge! If there had been a set like this in 1978 I would have become crazy!
  13. This is a true masterpiece! The pictures with the real rails is the icing on the cake! Amazing bogies and windscreen!
  14. I think Holger Matthes belongs to the gotha of lego train builders and I also believe it's an honor for us all to have such a detailed and passionate review from a caring and generous EB member as @Toastie is. It is nice to find that the book is available in several languages: this means great enthusiasm by the fans of each nation! I like how the book start with an overview of the history of lego trains because re-reading about the time we were young helps to make us dream and moreover as Thorsten say: the book is always determined, focused and addressed to the most relevant issues. This book can be a great source of inspiration for every AFOL!
  15. Brilliant project ...I love this mini KOF and those lovely short wagons! Great work!
  16. So sleek and so creepy ...lovely MOC!
  17. Wow, what a fantastic expression on that face!
  18. Nice one ...I'm waiting for the stikers!
  19. I didn't know this train which is very original and lovely! The locomotive seems a bit naked without the diesel tank under the body (...and the front sticker as already said by @dtomsen )
  20. Epic work! Those roofs are spectacular
  21. Amazing work, the dark red track with the white stripes looks fantastic! I like the tall grey fences too!
  22. The detail of the skates on the stairs is original, I like it The chimney built with the brick effect is another very nice detail Excellent modular building!
