Darkkostas25 Posted January 5, 2024 Posted January 5, 2024 Took some ideas from recent Orient express but made it longer, thinner. And took idea with front boogies from recent Hogwarts Express and Lego's big trains wheels don`t look so small https://www.bricklink.com/v3/studio/design.page?idModel=503834 Quote
Feuer Zug Posted January 5, 2024 Posted January 5, 2024 Nicely done. The locomotive and tender both look good. I will admit I'm not a fan of the two yellow bands on the boiler. They stick out too much for my taste. Can it be motorized easily? Quote
zephyr1934 Posted January 6, 2024 Posted January 6, 2024 Nice work, the colors kind of look like Sava's Texas State Ry museum loco Quote

I don't know a proper way for motorization :C what Lego`s engines could be helpful in this case to be honest + i use part list from recent bricklink designer program (always wanted to participate but always late :D ) Quote

Feuer Zug Posted January 17, 2024 Posted January 17, 2024 I think the design is quite visually improved with the removal of the bands around the boiler. Nice addition of the old Medium motor as well. Quote
