[MOC] English Electric CP1424 - Diesel Locomotive

[Sérgio]

Hi

this is the same model as CP1401 but with the classic blue color scheme
It has 2 PF train motors
Buwizz 2.0 Ludricous (But I don't use the Ludricous mode, this is not a High-speed train :P)
DYI Lights
It can run alone or synchronize with the CP1401.

This is part of my Consist "CP Miradouro Phase 2" which has 2 Locomotives and 5 Coaches 
 

 

Now, some " CP Miradouro" consists

The funny thing about the real-life train is the inconsistency of the rolling stock, it's almost impossible to see the same train twice, sometimes it's just two coaches, sometimes it has two locomotives, sometimes are fully colourful with several different coaches, sometimes are the same colors, etc

Now the full train has 3,60meters long, but unfortunately I don't have enough room or backdrop to take a nice photo.

Great technique in creating the stripe from bricks.

Another great moc of yours I love how you matched the colors of the locos and coache with their real life counterparts.

Cool and accurate builds, I like the use of mudguards!

I don't always comment on your builds, but all of them look superb! I love the fact you're staying true to the Portuguese railways.

Wonderful work! I love how you made it a point to arrange the grill pieces in different directions to better match the full-size locomotive!

Great - as always!

Absolutely stunning locomotive. As well as seeing the photos of the real train rolling along to compare it is just fantastic! As well congrats on the interview and CP promotional video!
