eurotrash Posted June 15, 2013 Posted June 15, 2013 I decided that what my ever expanding Modular City needed was a Subway. I'll get around to building the Platforms, Escalators and Tracks later. So I started by building a Subway Entrance to act as a Corner Modular in the Entertainment District part of my town. Here's the Top view: There are entrance's from both sides of the building and the Corporate Railway colours of Yellow and Blue are liberally splashed over the walls. Here's a view from one side: And a view from the Front: Here's some more images... Ticket machine to the Right in the Entrance Lobby (based on a design from www.brickbuilderspro.com), Tunnels leading to the Platforms in the Center and lost London 2012 Olympic Swimmer with Beat Box to the Left. The Roof is detachable so that you can access the Station Master's office on the second floor. He uses a bunch of different technologies: Rush Hour! And what Station entrance isn't complete without a broken down Bike chained to a Lamp-post? (the Fly looks bemused) I hope you like it and would appreciate any comments, criticisms, or suggestions!

lightningtiger Posted June 15, 2013 Posted June 15, 2013 Great work 'eurotrash', a fantastic modular add-on......I like the roof too. The addition of that bike frame against that lamp post is just the bomb.......dude, where are my wheels ? Brick On 'eurotrash' ! Quote
jfbat Posted June 15, 2013 Posted June 15, 2013 Love the classic space computers in the control room. Underground radar? Nice one! Quote
Kristel Posted June 16, 2013 Posted June 16, 2013 This is great! I love the roof and the collection of the minifigs. You've got the old guy on the bench who's there every day and then the weirdo in the swimming suit (that little girl should really be running at this point). BTW, what is she looking at through the magnifying glass? Quote
streifen Posted June 16, 2013 Posted June 16, 2013 Great entrance you have made! I like the 2-sided entrance/exit you have made! is that a manhole cover that has popped out? Quote
timmyc1983 Posted June 16, 2013 Posted June 16, 2013 ..snip... BTW, what is she looking at through the magnifying glass? AHAHAHAHA! But that's aside. I love this subway entrance, very clever addition to any LEGO town! And very well put together, I love the broken down bike that's a great touch! Well done and can't wait to see more Happy building PS, that fly cracked me up too!!! Quote
Hey Joe Posted June 16, 2013 Posted June 16, 2013 Hey! It's really nice, thanks for sharing. I'm not even gonna ask about the person in the swimsuit... Joe Quote
Kivi Posted June 16, 2013 Posted June 16, 2013 Very nice building, both outside and inside. The roof and the abandoned bike frame are very interesting details. Only the office looks a bit empty, a desk or some other piece of furniture or equipment (a coffee machine, perhaps ) would give better impression of the station master's workplace. Quote
Wedge09 Posted June 16, 2013 Posted June 16, 2013 Really nice work :thumbup: The bikes without wheels is as in the real cities Quote
Redhead1982 Posted June 16, 2013 Posted June 16, 2013 By far, my favourite detail is the green bicycle without its wheels. Although, it's owner likely doesn't find it funny. Quote
Legogal Posted June 16, 2013 Posted June 16, 2013 Cool design! Like the blue and yellow color combination. Locked bike minus wheels is a nice touch of reality! Quote
fhomess Posted June 17, 2013 Posted June 17, 2013 This has a really nice retro lego meets modern lego feel to it. At least, I think so, and perhaps it's just the traditional minifigs mixed in. I'd put the grate flush with the rest of the sidewalk. Someone's gonna trip and sue the railway! Quote
eurotrash Posted June 17, 2013 Author Posted June 17, 2013 Thanks for all the comments - they really are appreciated. I'd put the grate flush with the rest of the sidewalk. Someone's gonna trip and sue the railway! The truth is that I'd run out of 2x2 tiles for the sidewalk and had to improvise by using a 2x2 plate and the manhole cover. And I couldn't resist the Olympic Swimmer - I was trying to do the naked Singing Cowboy of Times Square, but I got some Limey with a Beatbox instead Quote
AlmightyArjen Posted June 18, 2013 Posted June 18, 2013 It's looks really beautiful! And I love the dude with the 80's ghetto blaster Quote
Vincent Kessels Posted June 22, 2013 Posted June 22, 2013 That is a very good modular! I very much like the arches, and the yellow and blue accents. The roof is also very well done. The only comment I have us that it is to clean. I am missing the dirt, graffiti and posters. The bicycle frame is a great touch though. Quote
