LEGO Train 12 Volts Posted January 28, 2012 Posted January 28, 2012 OK. Here we go. I had the intention of taking a photograph of my own Maersk model together with the set for months. Lucky for me, my sister, whilst staying at my place for a while, was nice enough to build me the set last weekend. This is fantastic! Quote
medib Posted January 28, 2012 Posted January 28, 2012 Due to the desireability of the MAERSK, and the desperation to make money when they can't moonshine, has led the new Redneck criminals to ridiculous mischeif! Epic Failure!! ;) They better stick to moonshine!!! Its MADNESS!!! PS... I will trade moonshine for a tag. Quote
WesternOutlaw Posted January 28, 2012 Author Posted January 28, 2012 Just when they thought TheBrickster couldn't get any more mad, he's decided to give the TOP TWO ENTRIES an exclusive Maersk blue Train Tech tag. TheBrickster is so mad, Train Tech tags are being passed around like pretzels in a bar room! Hold on to your tricycle handles and blue bumbleberry lollipops, it's a Maersk Madness weekend inside Train Tech! What will TheBrickster do next? He's MMMMMMMMMMAAAAAAAAAADDDDDDDDDD! Quote
lightningtiger Posted January 28, 2012 Posted January 28, 2012 It's just after 8.30am now, if I upload my MAD image by 11.00am tomorrow I might scrape in the time frame....unless the madness spreads ! Quote
SecondAxe Posted January 28, 2012 Posted January 28, 2012 After the derail, really heavy equipment was called upon... Quote
WesternOutlaw Posted January 28, 2012 Author Posted January 28, 2012 It's like parade goers looking to obtain beads during Mardi Gras! They'll do anything for an exclusive Maersk blue Train Tech tag! (EB members are lined-up outside Train Tech to get a sneak peek at all the commotion. Beatles impersonators are on the ceiling of the Train Shed playing "Get Back".) MADNESS! Quote
Piranha Posted January 28, 2012 Posted January 28, 2012 Aw man I wish I had gotten the Maersk Train already, this is such a fun contest. Quote

medib Posted January 28, 2012 Posted January 28, 2012 (edited) I love the bottom of my forum signature. I died. Top marks. My "other half" aka the wifey loved it. Well played Brickster. Edited January 28, 2012 by medib Quote
WesternOutlaw Posted January 28, 2012 Author Posted January 28, 2012 Seems that EB members have begun trading valuable household electronics for a chance at the exclusive Maersk Train Tech tag. "Can I get just half of a tag in exchange for this new 55" Samsung 3D Flat Screen"? pleads EB member Medib. It's MADNESS! I love the bottom of my forum signature. I died. Top marks. My "other half" aka the wifey loved it. Now happily married AFOL are willing to trade in their spouses in exchange for the remaining half of a Train Tech tag. Will the madness ever stop! Quote
SpokaneSteve Posted January 29, 2012 Posted January 29, 2012 Hello all: I'm not sure I appreciated the mad nature of the pictures but here is our Maersk Loc heading a consists of custom well cars in front of our windmill. I hope you all enjoy it. Steve. Quote
stacker9000 Posted January 29, 2012 Posted January 29, 2012 HaHa...just noticed my member title...I do love my Maersk "shine"!! Thanks Brickster, you Madcap!! Love this contest also! Quote
WesternOutlaw Posted January 29, 2012 Author Posted January 29, 2012 here is our Maersk Loc heading a consists of custom well cars in front of our windmill. A Maersk-mill blows in the distance from all the Maersk Madness! I do love my Maersk "shine" Some LEGO Train fans are so drunk from Maersk Madness, they're starting to see Maersk x 5! Quote
Gryphon Ink Posted January 29, 2012 Posted January 29, 2012 Hrrumph. I thought you were giving away a copy of the set. Now that would have been REALLY, REALLY MAD. It also would have worked much better for me... Now I'm MAD (American mad) because you weren't as MAD (British mad) as I thought. Quote
WesternOutlaw Posted January 29, 2012 Author Posted January 29, 2012 Now I'm MAD (American mad) because you weren't as MAD (British mad) as I thought. (to the soft music and beautiful picture of a gentle forest stream) Are you suffering from depression, anxiety, or even confusion? Has Maersk Madness been too much for you to handle? Do you find yourself overwhelmed by TheBrickster's Maersk Madness? Maerskin, a gentle solution. NOTE: Maerskin should not be taken with other drugs, alcohol, peanuts, popcorn, wheat products, milk, dairy products, Vitamin C or D, coffee, apple juice, blue bumbleberry lollipops, or Maersk Moonshine. If swelling, itching, salavating, abnormal lesions greater than 2 inches in width, headaches, night sweats, or hair loss occurs by taking Maerskin, please consult a physician immediately. Discover the tranquility of Maerskin. Quote
WesternOutlaw Posted January 29, 2012 Author Posted January 29, 2012 Make way for the Thowback Maersk! Where's the grape soda and root beer! (TheBrickster runs off because he's so mad!) Quote
woolie Posted January 29, 2012 Posted January 29, 2012 Hi everyone! Here is my entry: Maersk Train 10219 by wools, on Flickr I've been exiting the "dark ages" over the past year, and my lovely wife bought the Maersk Train for me as a Christmas present :) It is the first train I've had in 20 years -- since the Airport Shuttle when I was a kid. I was excited when I saw the contest -- photography is my other hobby! Especially night scenes. And trains, and buildings, and all the wonderful gritty things that make a city work. I had a scene in mind, but it took a bit of scouting using Google Street View to locate the right crossing. I went out tonight a little before dusk to setup, and it took a little bit of experimenting and adjusting the exposure before I was happy. I wanted to use some forced perspective to make the train integrate into a real life scene. And the best part about this shoot is that no one called the police -- over the past decade, I've come to expect that as a routine part of my night shots. Anyway, I can't wait to see all the other entries! Quote
