To give some background, I created a coach for my children to play with. Fairly basic, I'll give it that - some pictures are on my Flickr. Then I got a bit thoughtful whilst I was working on a project paper... and ended up coming up with this. The Prototype can be found by clicking on here - it gives you an idea of what inspired me. My vehicle is a 6-stud wide bus, with a 4-wide swing out door. Ideas to make it swing and side inside would be welcomed. The bus seats 4 and a wheelchair user (I could look at doing some flip down seats) as well as the driver.

Some improvements to be made (given the lacking small bricks) - considering it took about 6 hours start to finish, thoughts appreciated. Doink

Hi, as I'm going to to build some scenes from the Harry Potter movies for the Lego Fanwelt Event next year in Cologne, Germany, I began with planning these two magical vehicles: The Weasley's Flying Ford Anglia and the Knight Bus, emergency transport for the stranded witch or wizard. So here's a rendering of the LDD models: Magical vehicles from Harry Potter by Vaionaut I hope you like them ;) Best Vaionaut

You might have seen the new shop@home promotion in the newest store calendar of this month. Although you would think that this will mean the whole world can get this promotion, it seems only Canada and the States can get it... Is this a part of the store errors maybe? Even the UK cant get this promotion. Instead, there is a weird small set with a piece of cardboard And if this is the intention, when will Europe get the promotion?

All of a sudden while at work, this idea came to me and I got so interested. Objectives: Bus as 42008 C Model Good looking as much as I can include bus details as much as I can pneumatic door and baggage driven by pump compressor motorized drive as a 3rd function (what else a bus has to offer?) manual steering easily removable battery Parts: approximately 930 parts out of 1276 Build time: around 3 weeks Limitations C Model, hence no parts outside 42008 allowed 42008 presents the folloing challenges: not enough lift arms to build a floor in the passenger area managing the available quantities of Green and Red beams to build the bus body and make a good choice where green and where red goes. weak pneumatics I'm new and this is my 1st serious try, I only built 42008 before this. In general I'm satisfied by the end product. Next are things I think could be better: hiding the pneumatic hoses, got lazy at that. sliding baggage door, (couldn't figure out how to do that) more sturdy/smooth steering two doors rather than one using the white gear I may try to enhance this later (as a free MOC), but for now I will go to build some car sets to learn more about vehicle functions. I will start with 42029. Thank you for having a look. Remaining parts (around 340) -
Hello Guys. I need some help. As I am beginning to plan for my Lego city, I have realised I need public transport for my minifigures. So naturally I went onto brickset and searched up possible public transport sets. The only one was 200$! So I am now trying to build an moc bus based on the ones in the public transport set. As a inexperienced moc builder I came to the forums to seek knowledge. Does anyone know any tips? I am using LDD and LDD Manager. If anyone has an moc bus like it we might be able to strike a deal... Looking forward to hearing from you! Many thanks, Hip

My new creation is a school bus: Opening doors with M-Motor Drive with L-Motor Steering with Servo LiPo, 2x IR

Hi all, I'm new here to the forums and would like to showcase to you my latest MOC, a bus which is based loosely off the AEC Regal MkIV. This has taken me approximately six months from prototype to completion. Like the original bus, this MOC also features a fluid flywheel ("fluid drive"), which is filled with 40W silicon oil. This smoothly transmits the power from the E-motor to the gearbox. The bus is controlled via IR remote controls (for steering, throttle and gear shift). I've included some links to media below, including photos, video, a PDF manual and a link to the post I made on my own blog. Hope you enjoy!!! Link to blog post Link to PDF Operator's Manual -
Lego Traditional Truck Bus I had so much fun building my Chicken Bus (http://www.eurobrick...showtopic=95326) that I had to build another one. For this I used the 4434 Orange Dump Truck as the donor vehicle, but to be honest only the wheels, arches and the lower chassis remained from the original - everything else from there on upwards was built using non-set pieces. This is an 8-wide Truck with a 6-wide cab and the front bumper is 7-wide. There's a rudimentary ladder on either side that's used for loading the roof area - be careful carrying that 2 x 2 Reddish Brown Brick! There's five passengers on the roof (including the Crusty Fisherman who may have had too much to drink) sunning themselves amongst the luggage. The interior has bench seating for eight minifigs and standing room for four more. One final shot. We've got Mountains to climb! Thanks for reading. And I'd recommend building a Chicken Bus or Traditional Truck Bus to anyone - just use a donor vehicle and let your imagination run riot. Comments, criticism and ridicule most welcome!

Hey all, I have been working on an MAN SL202 in the Redbus NZ paint scheme: This model has full suspension including an auto-kneeling function where when the front door is opened the front left air suspension is lowered. I have built most of the chassis and the front and rear suspension, but as you will see the front suspension needs a complete overhaul due to steering problems. Time to stop rambling on and give you some images Air hoses are for the kneeling. Rear view. Front view of front suspension, not the left side wheel is over-rotating when steering and causes the wheel to lock at a right angle to the chassis and stopping forward movement. When it is able to drive the steering is at a bad angle when straight and this causes a large amount of resistance. When the steering is turned the geometry is way off and causes major sledging and resistance. The front axle when kneeling. The pump and RC switch for the suspension lowering and raising. Rear suspension design. Rear suspension's range of movement. Chassis view. So as you can see the project is coming along nicely but the front axle suspension needs a complete overhaul so any designs that work well would be greatly appreciated These photos and more can be found in a bigger size on my Bricksafe: http://bricksafe.com/pages/Kiwi_Builder/Technic. -
Lego Chicken Bus I've been wanting to build a Bus Depot for my economically deprived Lego city for a while, but it morphed into a Far-eastern Jeepney Depot which was kind of good, but the Jeepneys I built looked they really belonged in a circus (pictures on my Flickr account) so I leveled the Bus Depot and rebuilt the Jeepney into a Chicken Bus! The chassis is six-wide, the passenger space seven-wide and the roof-eight wide. I wanted a top heavy vehicle that looked like it would lurch around corners scattering the luggage and goods (and chickens) off the roof. There's a Bike rack on one side. Here's a view of the Luggage rack - the crates, ruck sack and empty beer bottles are secured with an old POTC fishing net. The Bus's schedule is loose and variable and it will frequently pull into towns to drop off and pick up passengers, but whatever you do do not let the Bus leave the town without you! - you might be there for a long time It's been a long time since that windscreen has seen a squeegee.... And a final shot of the spacious interior with comfy seating for at least six minifigs. Comments, criticisms and ridicule encouraged!

Traditional Bus Station I've been on a rampage building Chicken Bus after Chicken Bus and I've finally got around to building a Bus Depot/Station for them. The building has been through several iterations and styles but I've finally got to a point where it had enough of a run down feel to it so that it would fit in with my economically depressed Lego City. Here's the main facade and of course it has broken windows, cracked stucco and exposed brickwork. There's a display on the roof - with another small scale Chicken Bus - just in case no-one realizes that it's a Bus Depot and I used some SNOT to build the circles in the facade. The view from the rear of the building. As I built the glass-curved roof structure it turned into something that looked like it came from a British Rail circa early-1990s design manual. And although it invoked painful memories of too many years commuting into London I decided to keep it. Loading time! And there's an interior with a waiting room, departure board and luggage lockers And a Bathroom area behind the wall with the arrow pointing the way. And a final image with yet another Chicken Bus I hope you enjoyed it! Comments, criticisms, and ridicule most welcome - now excuse me I have a bus to catch!

MOC: TRUCKS OF WASABI DISTRICT Pickup Trucks 1/6/13 Delivery Truck 3/2/13 Charter Bus 4/27/13 Green Public Bus 6/8/13 Will update this top page whenever there's something new! ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hope you all had a good start to the 2013 year. I'm making this a truck thread and dump all my trucks here. For now, I have 2 finished MOC trucks - one of them I didn't even realize that I had no flickr upload on it, though it was shown on Brickworld 2012. Crew Cab: Seats 4 minifigs Extended Cab: Seats 2 minifigs; a 6/7-wide version of the 4200 Mining Truck set Misc Details/shots Here's the flick link for the rest of the pictures. They're rather simple, and large (because with 5-wide cars running around I can't have trucks be smaller than that.) I hope you like these guys... My next WIP is a cargo truck which I may update here.

Hello all I would like to share a coach (this time one from the street, not from the rails). The prototype was a Neoplan Cityliner in the newest version. I picked this coach because of its special look of the windscreen. I built the long version with three axles as a 8wide model with the LDD. The most difficult part was of course the curved windscreen but also the rear was a bit tricky and there is a lot of SNOT work on both ends. Now enjoy the pictures: Neoplan Cityliner 1 by StefanEris, auf Flickr Neoplan Cityliner 2 by StefanEris, auf Flickr Neoplan Cityliner 3 by StefanEris, auf Flickr Neoplan Cityliner 4 by StefanEris, auf Flickr If you want to see pictures of the prototype, take a look at this (German) site: http://www.bus-bild.de/name/galerie/kategorie/Bustypen~Reisebusse~Neoplan+Cityliner.html Stefan
