Over the last four hours I have completely redesigned my Lego British Rail MK 1 SO Carriage in LDD 4.3, the redesign was inspired by bricktrix own Cream and Crimson carriages, especially how he uses a reversed Lego headlight brick and a Lego Minifigure Hammer to make the door opening mechanism, and Lego curved slope bricks to give the coach a curved bottom, the redesigned carriage is 53 studs or 16.5 inches long, 8 studs wide (9 studs with the opening mechanism and window ledge). The carriage is based on British Rail Mark 1 Coaches which were introduced in the UK in 1951 to replace older pre British Rail Coaches, the coaches were mostly 57 foot in length, some were 63 foot in length. A comparison of my Lego British Rail MK 1 SO carriage with a Real British Rail MK 1 So carriage. Images showing my Lego British Rail MK 1 Carriage LDD design in other liveries. Update : I have worked out the cost of getting the parts to build the carriage, the cost is £125.00, should take month to two months to save enough money to build two carriages.

Hello my name is Jeff Allred - Extremeja, I'm a pastor from Sallisaw, OK which is on the eastern boarder of Oklahoma. I'm about 80 miles south of Tulsa. I have two boys, currently ages 10 and 14. We have been building the downtown modular sets for a year now and finally decided to build a table. It's constructed from 2x4's and plywood. 70"x96" and covered in black felt. We have started the laying out the road and train tracks. I set up an RC cargo train but just didn't like the way the PF sounded. I'm an old HO scale train guy so I started looking into the 9v system. I just got a test section with controller set up and now i'm convinced that I will be running the entire layout using the 9v system. Anyway, I just wanted to introduce myself. I'm a detail person and like making things look realistic. Ordered a ton of sets and individual blocks online already and looking forward to tiling sidewalks and setting track in place... that's the next order of business.
