Agree with the point above about the bunker and tender seeming a bit odd - I'd move the cab back slightly (giving a longer boiler) and remove the bunker. That could also line-up the ladder with the entrances, which seem a bit awkward at the moment.

Fantastique!

The whole train, configured as an ICBM launcher

Command carriage (Trevelyan's is converted into a luxury accommodation car).

Minor changes, and added a V8...

Yes, looks like they were introduced in 2023 - looks like they're mostly used in car models. https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=3504&C=11#T=C&C=11 Thanks!

Fantastic! A great model all around, but as is often the case with such models it's the details that really elevate it.

A bit of idle playing around on Studio... I've always been a big James Bond fan, so I thought why not build Alec Trevelyan's ex-missile-carrying train from the film? Will probably improve it a bit in time and add some carriages, but for now here is the locomotive.

Nice work - I especially like the way you've made the wagon ruts

Modern emergency services vehicles are often now modified commercial options or bolt on boxes to van or truck frames. As for the neon colors, high visibility is all the rage. Colors and enough lights to illuminate a scene from a mile away. And the colours are standardised across most of Europe anyway; ambulances haven't been red and white for some time now.

I like that, and it looks more like the prototype than the intended model (which looks very much like an F40 that's had its headlights stolen).

I do wonder if there's scope for a sticky topic about making "ghetto" track though; it's quite a handy thing for L-gauge and until a few weeks ago isn't something I'd ever even realised existed.

Any time! I really liked the design, it managed that tricky balance of squeezing a lot in whilst also not being overcrowded - I love all of those little details!

If you want a more permanent fix, would lacquering afterwards work? There might be a tolerance issue if the coat ends up too thick, I suppose.

Reminded me of this, which might be a fun one to build in Lego: Ma May have to settle for a single-sided version to get it to actually work in an acceptably-wide wagon though.
