Those porsche curves look great for the nose. It always disappoints me when Lego uses huge, bespoke elements for their passenger train noses, but when they don't, as in the 2010 and 2022 passenger trains, it ends up looking rough and blocky. Disappointment either way! (the 2010 one is still my fav of all time tho) This is a perfect middle ground, using existing large curved elements for that smooth look, while preserving the spirit of buildability that lego should have. It's a shame that these particular curves aren't suited for a 6-wide model, otherwise I could imagine an official version of 60337 with them!
@TealBricksinParadisa2 жыл бұрын
Agreed, the porsche curves seem as though they were made for it! I really think Lego needs to consider producing a portfolio of left/right compound curvature (curved along all three x-y-z axis) elements for more versatile creativity in organic curved shapes on vessels such as airplanes/ helicopters/ trains/ ships/ submarines noses & hulls!

This is your best video. I've watched all of your stuff and you were the most comfortable sounding when presenting this that I have heard yet. The design here is fantastic, and I don't think you need to worry about the illegal build technique in the front cowling of the train at all. I have come to understand that the main reason to categorize a build technique as illegal is because it puts too much stress on the Lego parts and can cause damage over time, and your build certainly doesn't do that. Excellent work.

Teal, you have two options with the wagon to wagon, walkways. One, brackets with plates & flat plates, giving you the profile of the rubber corridor protection. Sure, still a gap, but might let you get a better visual effect. Two, shared boggies, enough six wide trains that have this MOCed into or just looking at the Lego TGV. Do suggest finishing the train, though, it needs another motor-wagon (locomotive) and three passengier wagons.

15:57 as a person who has to help his disabled mom and push her in a wheelchair when she is unable to walk on her own, due to her right side of her body being affected by a stroke back in 2016; I would say that the scale of the wheelchair and the standard door in LEGO is more accurate than it should. Maybe lego should make a 5-stud door in the future, it’d be nice to see a bigger variety of doors. 25:00 The LEGO train scale is strange to me, when the cars are still in different sizes of 4-studs through 8-studs but most of their trains are mostly stuck with 6-8 studs. I’m honestly not sure what my preferred scale is atm when I would want to be as accurate as possible like speed champions, but be suitable for minifigure size. I’m just trying to make them suitable for my view of scale.
@TealBricksinParadisa2 жыл бұрын
It can't be easy to provide that level of help to someone who can't walk and I think it's incredibly awesome that you are there for your mom to help her! And I definitely find your feedback helpful! I've actually had the opposite idea for a while!..4 stud wide doors would be the wider building doors we see in real life (wheelchair accessible, re-mold the wheelchair to fit) and that it would be VERY useful if lego made a 3 wide door! 3-wide door/frame would be VERY versatile piece as a door primarily seen on vehicles such as buses (the entrance door ahead of the front wheel), trains, campers/RVs, science lab rigs, airplane/spaceship cockpit doors, compact bathroom doors inside (buses/RVs/airplanes), refrigerator doors, closet doors in buildings and possibly even storage cabinets on utility trucks when turned sideways...these are all applications where 4 wide is too wide. [Note: the existing right/left car style doors 58380 dont really work as 3 wide because the opening is more like 2 wide instead]

8W is the way. The future is 8W and proper proportion carriages, no more of this teeny weeny carriages we need to apply the 5X-RULE. So in the real world a passenger carriage length is roughly 5 times its height. So if your carriage is 8 bricks high by the 5X-RULE it should be 5x8= 40 bricks long. Once you build them you will see how right they look and you will never go back.

Great video teal bricks! I really liked the intro! And that stop motion was sick!😄 and I think you did a really good job on the design of this. I love the glass all the way around and especially how it slopes extremely steep in the front, I think lego is more of a shallow slope but yours just really brings it all out. and how fast do you think this can go? And i really like how it looks super modern! 🤙 and the 6 stud wide doors are a cool Feature! Also I wish lego would make better trains I feel like their trains aren't that good, especially they aren't too fast and I kind of wish they were little bit more Compact ,so we would have more building interiors and I really wish they had this much shape as yours does! Great job as always!

21:30 Would it be possible if you made the two ends of the car curve in and add another point of articulation (e.g. Technic pin, turntable, or just resting on tiles) on each, then have a gangway section built separately but attached to those two end cars (roughly in the shape of: > (one car), >=< (gangway), < (next car))? I noticed this on a tram in real life in Budapest one time, and looking it up, it was a Siemens Combino Supra model. I’ve never really seen that kind of design with LEGO trains but it would be cool if you perhaps gave it a shot! I just discovered your channel recently from the autonomous tram/bus and am intrigued by the futuristic concept. I like your design solution for the smooth, curved nose which looks very realistic! I also love how the 8-wide conversion opens up so much more room for interior details, which is something I really care about. Excited for more of your mods of LEGO sets!

Impeccable timing with your suggestion, William! 😄 I actually just finished a working concept with a major breakthrough idea just this morning! I started 2 days with implementing some Jacob's bogies to replace the standard dual bogie system ...and one thing led to another and new ideas popped up and now I'm beyond stoked that I actually got a solution! It's not simple at all, took me 2 days to solve and it does some trickery, but it works! There are no gaps between the train cars at all, and even when going around a tight bend! The minifigures only need to step across a 1 stud gap (when the train is straight though) .. It's somewhat similar to what you suggested...the Jacob's bogie is just like the 'gangway' you mentioned. It's funny the 8-wide looks so right!..and then when I hold an older 6 wide train car next to the 8-wide, it just looks so itty bitty 😂 I'm really glad you like the train nose and the futuristic concepts!

It's impressive how many seats (and tables!) (and bike!!) (and trolley!!!) (where's the trolley witch with her chocolate frogs????) you can fit in the passenger coach. To me, this is why TLG needs to start doing 8 stud wide trains, buses and whatnot: we need two rows of seats, and an alley way in the middle. And they need to contain more than 4 seats, otherwise the minifigs might as well just use cars! Hang on, LEGO cars can only fit 1 to 2 minifigs, oh yeah that's right 😬. The sun roof is lovely. It matches well with the future style of Paradisa City too. Alas, we have to accept those gaping holes in between coaches. One day we might get an accordion part to make it safe? One can only hope.
