I remember when the original BNSF Lego set was delivered back in 2004 to my dad's house. (for him - not me, sadly!) That set, along with the complete Super Chief he already owned from two years prior, got me even more psyched for LEGO trains. Granted, I couldn't afford the set at the time, but now I'm 20 years older and have money! Thus, I decided one day late last month to redesign the 9v Train set 10133 - Burlington Northern Santa Fe (BNSF) GP-38 Locomotive - into the modern paint scheme of the BNSF railroad. In short: I took the dark green and made it black, as that's the way the railroad has painted their engines since 2005. As I couldn't possibly get the yellow train baseplate, I used Dark Bluish Grey, and since I HATE dealing with flex-tubes, I used premade fence parts for the walkway railings. I also revised the rooftop fans, the bogies, and the fuel tank. The front of the loco. The rear of the loco. The three 2x2 DBG donut tiles on the roof are missing fan printing here in LDD. The cab roof is still removable, just like in the original set. This area seats one mini figure at the controls. Only 126 bricks remain to be found or bought for this diesel locomotive in the real world at this time. (NOTE: Some differences exist between the digital model and the WIP.) Thoughts?
