Nice train, it looks cool!
I wish I could find them Halloween buckets in my local stores.
But it seems that they never made it to the Tampa Bay Area?
Maybe this year? See Ya... Robin W.

Several of us seem to be on the same page these days to model passenger • trains,
specifically TGVs!  :-)  This is excellent.
I'm am enjoying seeing all the great work.

Orange...TGV...
I've put up on my web site my attempt to model the French SNCF TGV PSE in its
orange, black, and white colors.

It's only four cars long: two engine units and two simple passenger cars.
Each of the cars is coupled by means of LEGO yellow rubber bands, which allows
all four cars to be close-coupled.
The two passenger cars, at their union, share a common two axle bogie.  The
bogie can pivot independently of either passenger car.  This shared bogie also
free-floats between the two cars with in-line translation on tiled "tongues"
that fit into slots in both passenger cars.

Pictures are worth more than my feeble words.  See this model of the TGV PSE • in
orange at:

Thanks for looking.
later,
James Mathis
