I bought the new plans and only to spend $10.00 to get the bricks I needed after taking the other build apart. I like this build alot more, it goes around the track very smooth. thanks for the updated build

@tld8102 Жыл бұрын

I would've made it 8 wide... but run on 6 wide lego track. It may look like the gauge seems a bit narrow but the detailed able to achieve on 8 wide trains are a good compromise

Personally I still prefer the original UCS one just because it has more detail and I don’t really care about the tracks, however this one is amazingly good and perfect for tracks. Nice job!

@matsv201 Жыл бұрын

Something positive about the UCS is that the value for money in terms of how much lego you get is really quite good. Its like 6-7 cent per pice, and there are plenty of big once

@GodmanchesterGoblin Жыл бұрын

Great build. But for the less adventurous, even the 2018 version benefits from a longer boiler (+2 studs) and firebox and cab (+1 stud each). For mine, I also moved the wheels apart by one stud to improve the look. I have a powered tender and also powered luggage wagon behind four extended coaches (+ 4 studs each with MOC bogies). I like the ideas in your motor carriage. I may take the plunge.

@MilkDrinker218 Жыл бұрын

Amazing! My only real suggestion would be to make some gearing mechanism in the frames of the locomotive so that the wheels don’t jam, especially with its current siderods. You could’ve also used a technic beam between the locomotive and tender, I use it on one of my engines and it works just fine. Again, only suggestions, not a dig or anything, it looks amazing and I’m especially pleased with how you did the headboard on the front. Amazing model! -Milkdrinker218

you know what I wish someone did? I wish that someone made a entirely self contained wireless rc train bogie. it would be so easy to just make a train bogie that uses technic axles and wheels and is battery powered and remote controlled on its own.

Awesome job mate! You should make the time train from Back to the Future 3 in this scale!

@crystalzues4712 Жыл бұрын

This is good but going for the smaller city scale rather than using the 1:48 L gauge standards would've allowed for more space and more detail. Also the lack of a connecting rod is a downgrade from the UCS version.

@sidneysun5217 Жыл бұрын

nice thx for the video! i'm attempting to build it using 2 sets of 75955, using the emerald night set as a reference for size. its working out pretty well. i like your design to fix the middle wheel of the tender, much better than my method of just slapping on a turntable lol. and for only $200 too. im sure i can get another 2 more sets for 2 extra carriages and still end up spending less than the UCS model

Tender lacks some details and the loco to tender coupling isn't a correct one. They should be coupled closer and not with a magnetic one

@Bradleygt86 Жыл бұрын

Fun fact the Hogwarts express was actually the flying Scotsman because it just sat outside on a military base because the owner did a tour around the United States and then he didn’t have enough money to ship it back so then universal borrowed it and repaint it and we have to take the wings off the side of the boiler Please give me grace I don’t know the technical term and used it as the Hogwarts express and they eventually shipped it back to the UK and they had to restore it because it was rusty it’s still running today

If you get the real old Lego tracks (the kind so old you have to ensemble each pice of track pice by pice) you can just widen the track to make it fit.

I’ve wanted Lego to design all trains wider like this. The wider engines and cars sets the wheels in a bit like real trains and allows more interior space.
