Season's Greetings Fellow LEGO-Fans!
I saw Adrian's post the other day about the Christmas Train that he had
built and it inspired me to get mine finished. I finally finished it a few
days ago and have it now set up under our table-top tree. Today I made a
video of the train from which I captured a few still pictures.

I built the Santa Express using my 4559 set as the base (the only LEGO train
I own). In addition to the engine there is a car that contains the Elves'
Workshop. This car also carries Santa's Sleigh on top. The other car is
Santa's House - a little big for a traditional caboose but hey, Santa's a
big guy!
This was my first attempt at building a train from scratch. I'm pretty
happy with it except that the engine is dwarfed (or is that elved?) by the
cars. Next time I'll go seeking some building tips from other train folks.
Happy Holidays to all!
Greg

| (...) Really great work, Greg. I'd have to say that's my favorite LEGO train I've ever seen =). I'm not a trainhead or anything but now I've got the urge to buy one and build theme trains like that. We need more silly trains, less excruciatingly (...)
