Hello all!

Here are some pictures of my newest creation! The Ghost Train (ooooh, cue scary
music). This train is built completely using clear elements (with the exception
of the wheels, motor, and other necessary train bits)! All of the parts are
"fairly" common, as the majority of the pieces were purchased at the Legoland
California Pick-A-Brick store. The rest were either from Bricklink or my own
collection. I got the idea at the at the SPLTC western layout at the Orange show
in San Bernadino this Memorial Day weekend. Looking at the trains I realized
that most of the parts that comprimise a train have been made in clear, so, the
idea for the Ghost train was born!



Simply amazing.

Though, it saddens me a little since it means another idea I had been
thinking about has been realized by someone else (and, most likely,
better than I *would* have built if I had found the time.)  I do find
Lugnet to be something of double-edged sword in the regard. :)
