damangos Posted February 19, 2019 Posted February 19, 2019 I tried to recreate the Flying Scotsman to the best of my ability. I have also tried to created good looking instructions to go along with my creation. She can become remote controlled with Power Functions/ Powered up really easily with a few modular modifications. I have also uploaded her to LEGO IDEAS. Flying Scotsman LEGO by Da Mangos, on Flickr Flying Scotsman LEGO by Da Mangos, on Flickr Flying Scotsman LEGO by Da Mangos, on Flickr Flying Scotsman LEGO by Da Mangos, on Flickr Here she is without smoke defectors and a double tender. Flying Scotsman LEGO by Da Mangos, on Flickr These Instructions are NOT to be sold, they are free for everyone. Instructions download: https://1drv.ms/b/s!AspcbvQ53YKPnzVyiFCVFkgh43-Z Hope you Enjoy.

deraven Posted February 19, 2019 Posted February 19, 2019 Looks great! Everything is very clean and well-integrated. You might want to take a look at the Ideas rules, though; I could be wrong, but I think you're not supposed to distribute instructions for submissions (maybe it's just not sell instructions... but something about it in the rules IIRC).

kiwinewt Posted February 19, 2019 Posted February 19, 2019 That is absolutely brilliant! I'm in love! Do you perchance have a bricklink XML parts list? I'd love to get it up and start acquiring the parts for this as soon as I can... Quote
bogieman Posted February 19, 2019 Posted February 19, 2019 I agree it's very nice, thanks for sharing the instructions. Quote
bricks n bolts Posted February 19, 2019 Posted February 19, 2019 Wow, really nice build, thanks for making and sharing such clear instructions! Quote

zephyr1934 Posted February 20, 2019 Posted February 20, 2019 The instructions look great. I was checking to see what sort of rods this might take. One small suggestion would be to add the technic pin axles from steps 160 and 163 on an earlier step to make it clear which holes they go in, perhaps as early as step 6, or as new steps right before current 160 and 163. Oh, looking further, some of the parts might be expensive or unavailable. The green 1x1 plate with vertical clip in steps 125 and 126 are very rare. You could easily replace those with 1x2 plates in dark green and then down below hold them in place with 4081b on the backside or tiles on the outside connected to a 1x1 brick with studs on 2 opposite sides. Oh, wait, I was thinking the model was dark green (ca. BR years) is the model in green and those 1x1 plates are bright green? (which is available) If so, the above tricks might still allow you to keep it all one color. Quote
3797 Posted February 20, 2019 Posted February 20, 2019 That looks great. Thanks for sharing the instructions. Quote
THERIZE Posted February 20, 2019 Posted February 20, 2019 Beautiful locomotive! Thank you for sharing the instructions. Quote
AndyCheets Posted March 27, 2019 Posted March 27, 2019 Hello, I've just tried to download the instructions to make this for my son and it says the instructions are no longer available. Can anyone help please. Much appreciated. Quote

ritztoys Posted March 29, 2019 Posted March 29, 2019 Thank-you damangos, the link worked just fine, now to gather parts! Lego #10194 wayyyy to expensive to modify to your locomotive. Quote
LEGO Train 12 Volts Posted March 30, 2019 Posted March 30, 2019 Beautiful locomotive and great work! Just a tip: I don't think you can share the instructions once the project is put on Lego Idea Quote

LEGO Train 12 Volts Posted March 31, 2019 Posted March 31, 2019 Oh in that case you're very kind to share the instructions with this community! Quote
kiwinewt Posted April 28, 2019 Posted April 28, 2019 I've noticed some problems with the instructions, specifically with the tender so far. Have a look at how the water tank area connects - it appears that two plates merge (the 2x6 and 4x4 with 2x2 cutout) Also, is it possible to get the image file for the flying scotsman plate on the front? Thanks heaps! :D Hopefully I can show you my finished build soon. Just have to wait for some bricklink orders to arrive... Quote
rahziel Posted April 29, 2019 Posted April 29, 2019 Well done m8, excelent job, and thanks for the LDD file. I'm not sure about Lego ideas because of the similarities with the emerald night, but it sure would be a great comeback to have such a thing available again. Quote
