'It's a beautiful day in the neighborhood...' This is a MOC of the Neighborhood Trolley, a model streetcar first used to get from the Kingdom of Make Believe to Mister Rogers house in the PBS show 'Mister Rogers' Neighborhood'. This version of the show ran from 1968 to 2001 in the USA, while an earlier version ran rom 1962 to ~1966 in Canada. Both shows were created and starred in by Fred Rogers, who sadly passed away in 2003. Even though the creator has passed on, and the original show ended, the story lives on in it's animated successor show: 'Daniel Tiger's Neighborhood', which started in 2012 and is still going. This new show also features the Neighborhood Trolley. For this 6-wide MOC, I added some trolley poles to the design from the show, because it's got to have a way to get power, right? The MOC itself is partially inspired by an old MOC from over 20 years ago I saw on Brickshelf (R.I.P.) that was by user J-2, and by the streetcar in set 10308 Holiday Main Street plus a lot of my own work. This model replaces my earlier 8-wide version, and reuses a number of the parts of that four-year old MOC. front view of the trolley with one of it's poles raised, ready for travel to the Kingdom of Make Believe. side view of the trolley The Daniel Tiger and Mr. Rogers minifigures by themselves.

First off, I would like to say that, no, I am not terrible at maths! All shall be explained! (Sorry, this may be quite a lot of reading!) The Back Story: First aspect: Some weeks ago, I was having a general look for sets that might be of interest to me. I stumbled upon a very good deal on the Lego City Bus Station (Set no. 60154). I decided in a spur of the moment purchase to pick up 2 sets, with no real plan… That’s what sowed the seed! Second aspect: In the not so distant past, I had purchased a huge Lego haul from eBay containing many train set items and accessories. In amongst this, was an incomplete copy of the Lego Freight Rail Runner (Set no. 4564) – (maybe 80% complete) – at the time I didn’t really know what to do with it. Over time I harvested the 9V motor, wheels, couplings, bogie plates, wagon parts and straight track – basically all the good stuff! Now, I’m a big fan of seeing people doing set combining! I have never seen anyone attempt something like this! (Correct me if I’m wrong!) The Hypothesis: “Is it feasible to make a decent looking locomotive of any kind, combining Sets 60154 and 4564? – Using minimal significant other parts, but in cases where necessary only using parts I currently have, and not resorting to ordering things. The locomotive should ideally use Power Functions with 2 motors, lights are not necessary. Also, the finished model should be sturdy, strong, and able to be played with by children.” Answer, Was It Possible? Yes, and in my opinion, it turned out rather well. What I attempted to build was a massively simplified Class 37, with much artistic licence! Here is the finished product: Thus, the idea for “60154 + 4564 = 37?” was born! What do you think? Any questions, thoughts, or criticism will be much appreciated. Regards, James :)

Inspired by the modular Fire brigade Fire engine and modification to the Palace Cinema Limousine, I have gotten another idea to build a simple vehicle for the Parisian Restaurant modular theme. Sharing my 6 studs wide build - 1955 Ford Thunderbird Convertible (First Generation).

Oh, hello there, internet! This is my first moc on this site, and I had problems with the uploader. I just could upload one picture. I just made a 6-studs wide car that is supposed to look like a Rolls Royce Phantom. An older one, of course. It uses a little bit SNOT on the front, but that's it. hope you guys like it!
