Hi Sim Sim, welcome to Eurobricks. It is fine to promote your ideas including "LEGO ideas" at Eurobricks but we would hope you did not join to promote your LEGO idea. Apart from that you can read in the other topics that getting a train like structure approved in LEGO ideas is virtually impossible. We have seen very, very nice LEGO ideas trains / trams / metros / monorails, but none made it past 10.000.

This should of course not discourage you and your son: it is a neat idea and even if LEGO ideas does not get approved you can enjoy sharing and getting even better ideas. Why don't you give a full expose of all the details in here? We can think along and give tips etc as fellow train lovers to you and your son!

I like to coloring. Of course a lot of us would like to see the sliding door mechanism. I did one myself in a Union Pacific mail car for the "mail catcher".

It would be great see some more pictures ...or maybe a video of the sliding doors.

Good luck for your project!

Its a simple thing, but I like the grey 1x8 vertical tiles which mark the first and last car.
