Hi all, After finishing my first steam train MOC 6 months ago- the iconic Gresley streamliner 'Mallard', I was eager to get started on another engine. After digitally designing a large roster of engines to the same scale, I decided to stick with the classic LNER designs and build my own take on the iconic Flying Scotsman. The build has evolved slightly since the original design, but not by much. Below is the original render which included the bar along the and green tender wheels. The build began with laying out the wheelbase. This also matches the wheelbase of the Mallard MOC. Then, the tender- complete with all the power functions elements! The motor's proportions meant the tender has 3 wheels instead of the accurate 4. Note the clipped wheel cover on the front axle. It wasn't an easy decision but the details look so much neater because of it. The boiler was next, and after a swift bricklink order the pieces came together very nicely. Lastly, the wheels! I can't say I've seen any MOC's that have used Big Ben Brick's Green wheels before, but here they are, and they look fantastic. There is still plenty to work on, such as decals and working piston rods (that don't obscure the width of the build too much). Fr now though, I'm happy to call this finished. For now. EDIT: I recently made a Youtube video taking a closer look at the MOC, where it can also be seen in action. I'd love to hear your thoughts on the build, please feel free to leave a comment! I'll leave with a few more images of the build. - Isaac Info on the Mallard MOC can be found on this thread:

Long time since I last posted on Eurobricks (University sure takes it out of you). Last Winter I finished a new MOC for display at my local LUG, and here it is making its premiere on the Eurobricks forums: British Railways 60103 (formerly LNER 4472) A3 Class Flying Scotsman Most of the model is built with parts from set 10194 Emerald Night, with a few minor additions for purely aesthetic reasons. The entire locomotive is seven studs wide and adapted to run on 9V track. In addition to the 9V train motor in the tender, a separate motor powers the locomotive, connected to the tender 9V motor. She is as troublesome as the real Scotsman, but runs like a dream when given the proper care and attention. Front view of locomotive. Locomotive side view. Tender side view, with 9V motor underneath. Tender rear view, with corridor and porthole for light Tender top view. View in locomotive cab, with modified 10194 firebox, gauges, and regulator. Inside the firebox, with a view of the motor powering the locomotive. Rear view from the windows of a pullman carriage. Feel free to post any comments or questions, and thanks for viewing! Always entertaining, always inspiring, always:

As the prototype of Emerald Night, Flying Scotsman is very famous Steam engine in the world. After finished my QJ steam engine http://www.eurobricks.com/forum/index.php?/forums/topic/133621-china-qj-steam-engine/#comment-2572918, I begine to make it, here is my work. The Light can be lighten. Have a guess what's this? It's water tank made by lego parts for smoking. Here is smoking effect. This is water inlets. Big Ben XL wheel painted to green $100 bricks just for fun. Drived by one L motor The whole train with coach video link https://v.qq.com/x/page/s0361fjaxjq.html Put together with QJ My shelf for showing the train Thank you for visiting. Add some picture of Coach.
