Dear all, me and Petra cannot join this year as we are expecting a baby at the end of April. kind regards, Johan

Unfortunately me and Petra cannot join this years event as we need to take care of our Anna, and she is still a bit too small to come along.

Me and my wife moved to another house in March. Sadly, all my Lego is in storage and has been for several months now. So, unfortunately, I cannot take part in this wonderful competition.

Me and Petra will come by car as well.

hi MstrOfPppts, I'm interested in 1x 30212 Mirkwood Elf Guard. Hi eiker86, I'm interested in 1x 30215 Legolas. Kind regards, Teddy

Okay! Super! Kind regards, Johan

I completely overlooked this and the sign in topic. My mistake. I thought I had already registered on July 17th in the information topic. So I didn't pay any attention anymore. Anyways, I will gladly come together with Petra. If someone wants to share a chalet with us please let us know.

I love it! It is beautiful. The roof is very interesting. I will be studying that more closely. The wooden framing is superb!

Hi all, I'm definitely in! Jay, looking forward to it already! :)

Hi Calacon, thank you for your message! Please send our regards to your mum.

Very beautiful and impressive locomotive! Love the 3 motors in the boiler! The spinning fans top it off beautifully.

Congratulations Ecclesiastes! hope you will have fun in your new function!

Hi everybody, just came home from Budapest. me and my wife had a great time! I really enjoyed the event and meeting everybody. A big Thanks to the organizers of the event! Kind regards, Johan

Hi Holodoc, me and my wife plan to arrive between 21:00 and 22:00 Wednesday night. Looking forward to meeting all of you again. Kind regards, Johan

The station is cool and the train is amazing! I especially like the bogie design of the train. The interior detailing in the station is very well done, especially the decal above the ticket office.

I love the X-wing and I really appreciate this re-release. That said, the poor nose design on this set really hurts the overall look of the thing. It sticks out like a sore thumb. I find it really difficult to understand that none of the professional designers at Lego pointed this out and corrected it. All other issues are minor in my opinion.

Thanks, the PF light are attached to the roof via these elements: also the brick attached to the lights is put into the roof. The PF cable is attached behind the entry doors. When lifting of the roof the cable is more than long enough to just lay the roof next to the rest of the carriage. Otherwise you can just easily unplug it. Kind regards, Teddy

Hi Cei, Actually, it is quite okay. I have been running the train for some while now and I have not noticed anything particular in regard to battery life. One motor pulling hard also drains the battery as it requires much more current to overcome the resistance. Probably not as much current as two motors running the same train, but I think the difference is much less than two. This is from the Lego website: The current consumption will depend heavily on the load it is driving. Under normal conditions it can be around 225 mA and we do not recommend a continuous use above 450 mA. So current consumption of one motor can double under heavy load. The current consumption of the lights is negligible compared to the motors. Kind regards, Teddy Had to take the train of the track and unhook the motors. My camera is not that good at taking pictures in the dark, or of taking pictures of a moving object:

Here is my two cents on powering this train: What I did was buy two sets. Use one battery box and one receiver and run a cascade of extension wires with a control switch to power a motor at either end. Then I hooked up the front and back lights to the PF motor plug and put lights in each carriage powered from the extension cord. Lights and engines are all powered from one port of the receiver. It drives nicely, the motors fit well and the entire thing is lit up nicely. What I used: -2 10233 Horizon express -1 Power Functions IR Receiver -1 Power Functions Rechargeable Battery Box -2 Power Functions Train Motor (88002) -2 Power Functions Extension Wire 20” -2 Power Functions Extension Wire 8" -1 Power Functions Control Switch -8 Power Functions Light Kind regards, Teddy

Hi Holodoc, thanks for the invite! I would really like to sign us up for "your" room. Kind regards, Teddy

Dear Bonaparte, me and my wife will be joining in as well. Kind regards, Teddy

Dear LegoSjaak, it should open inwards. Kind regards, Teddy Edit: Just saw you figured it out yourself .

Dear LEGO Train 12 Volts, I like your BR22 a lot and the piping adds additional realism to the train. My main question in regards to the piping is why it bends downwards when it comes closer to the cabin? Kind regards, Teddy

Dear LEGO Train 12 Volts, I really like your BR22-012 design! I am quite surprised you managed to get it running on a single M-motor.Very well done! From the pictures I see the free flowing axle found a new interesting implementation. I really like the 1 stud wide design for the joint connection. The Walschaerts valve gear is an interesting touch to a sweet design, which I will study more closely. Kind regards, Teddy
