Posted February 5, 201015 yr I havn't seen a moc of one of these engines yet. This is definately one of my favourite european locomotives. Its not powered yet but that is my next project to add power functions. Please let us know your thoughts.
February 5, 201015 yr Ahh, finally a 8 wide MOC!!! Great, I like your detailed engine. Do you have any batteries and light in the loco? In reality where are this locos used?
February 5, 201015 yr Author Ahh, finally a 8 wide MOC!!!Great, I like your detailed engine. Do you have any batteries and light in the loco? In reality where are this locos used? No batteries or light yet. Will add them soon. These engines are from a private rail company servicing the Rur region of Germany. They make trips into the Netherlands too.
February 5, 201015 yr Love it! Your MOC really captures the lines of the prototype very well. I don't know much about German railways, but it's a nice model.
February 5, 201015 yr SWEET - you found a use for old dark grey plates ! AWESOME MOC TRAIN and so close to the real one it's not funny ! Great stickering job too ! I'm a conformist! 'Michealozzie' !
February 5, 201015 yr Beautiful yet equally menacing! Fantastic engine Michaelozzie. Not too many builders create 8-stud wide trains and you've certainly done so with style, adding a great amount of additional detail. Your decals are splendid as well as the color scheme. I love that dark green! I think train creations like this definitely separate the expert builders and those of the basic variety (like me). One day - I could only hope. It's a good thing this is an ocean away from my Santa Fe Western, because I'd be afraid that it would crunch my little red caboose. Top notch and front-paged!
February 5, 201015 yr Oh my Gosh, I seriously thought that last picture was your LEGO verison Photoshopped into a real scene. You copied that design flawlessly, that is very impressive. Great work!!
February 5, 201015 yr Those dark grey sloped window pieces– are those official LEGO? I don't recognize them but they look very handy! m19
February 5, 201015 yr Great job ! I like it. I would have put some tiles on the Dark Gray parts just to hide the studs also.
February 5, 201015 yr An Excellent Loco michaelozzie. Just like the real thing! I really like it how its 8 wide, and how much detaile there is on it. The custom Decals of yours are Great! A+ for them mate. Well done! CommanderFox
February 6, 201015 yr What a great loc!!! I absolutely love this - the photo with it at the station is just marvellous... I headed straight on to Classic-Town to blog this, but I found out Shadows had already pipped me to that ... deservedly so (it's been a slow day for me :P) The original engine itself is also a joy to behold - and that's why your model turned out so great! Thanks for introducing this great locomotive to us :]
August 7, 201113 yr A beautiful reproduction of a brute of an engine! I'm a Steam fan but I love that engine! And your work is fantastic. How inspiring!
August 8, 201113 yr Great job recreating this odd-looking engine 'michaelozzie'. You nailed this MOC, I was surprised how much it looks like the photo of the actual unit. Excellent work
August 8, 201113 yr This is an outstanding MOC! This Lego V202 looks absolutely like the real one! Perfect decals and great work!
August 8, 201113 yr It looks amazing, excellent work. The custom decals/stickers are superb. *edit* just noticed this is an old post, still great work though. Edited August 8, 201113 yr by Pet-Lego
August 8, 201113 yr Very nice! It's not always easy to put a slope next to the wheels so the wedges seems good to me
