After being inspired by part of Toy Story set 7594 (Woody's Roundup), I present to you this train station for my Wild West 1860s / 1870s layout, specifically for the town of Hope Springs. This town (in my head canon) is the setting for the old TV show seen in Toy Story 2. The set's building was modified in length, width, and colors with a three-track long platform on which the station master is currently standing. As with all my Western buildings, the MOC is open-backed for access to the inside details. The lower level of the station features a bench and cash register for ticket selling. Upstairs in the office we find an old-time opening safe for ticket money, desk with a red-lensed lantern, a swiveling chair, and a cast-iron stove for heat. Since this is a set based on 7594, and because I decided to use the figs from that set in my town, so I updated the figs to modern standards to better match the other mini-figures. Jessie (on left) and Woody (in middle) are the modern official LEGO figs, whereas Stinky Pete the Prospector (on right) is the figure that is new. (He uses the official Prospector's torso from 2010, mid-length blue legs, the short white beard from DC's Mighty Micros' Doomsday figure, the hat from the CMF S12 Prospector, and finally Leonardo Da Vinci's head.) I did this as Stinky Pete has never had an updated release of his figure since 2010.... which means he's long overdue for a remake, which goes doubly for the set he came in! Thoughts? -
"The Crash at Crater Canyon (part 1)" is a thrilling two-part episode of the 1950s / 60s TV series Woody's Roundup. In this episode, Jessie the yodeling cow-girl is knocked out by Prospector Stinky Pete, as she had discovered Pete's plans for Sheriff Woody and the town he protects via the mine tunnels under the town filled with dynamite and nitroglycerin, set to blow up high noon the next day to destroy the town in a giant sinkhole. Jessie is then placed unconscious on a steam loco which is uncoupled from it's train and sent hurtling uncontrollably through the wilderness to Crater Canyon, where it will meet the Cannonball passenger train on the bridge. (Thus destroying the only fast way to town and keeping Jessie out of the way for the town to explode with Woody saving Jessie and not in town to stop Pete's plan.) Naturally, Woody rides out on his horse (Bullseye) to save Jessie,who has at this point woken up and discovered the throttle lever missing and steam loco's brakes disconnected. This episode ends with this scene above: Jessie reaching for Bullseye and Woody while both trains are barreling towards each other and certain destruction, while the timer on the clock in town square ticks ever closer to noon. What happens in the next episode will never be known, as the show was pulled from the airways as the film office where the future episodes and unfinished scripts were kept burned to the ground, destroying all the un-aired episodes. It is assumed, though, that Woody rescues Jessie, stops the town from exploding, and jails Pete all before the credits roll. The real scene takes place on my Eads bridge with engines 2 and 3, plus the passenger train for the latter loco. The yellow steamer is not even finished: the side not shown is missing one wheel and moving piston and was carefully staged to hide this fact! The story behind the picture is 100% fake, as the Woody's Roundup only exists in Disney / Pixar "Toy Story" films. (specifically the second one) I tried using every to make the story sound believable for that era of TV it was set in, such at the middle 1950's to early 60s when Howdy Doody and Westerns in general were very popular. What do you guys think?
