This shows a good use of Bionicle parts in the 'real lego world' ;-P Now you only have to collect some more of these knee-caps to create a respectable length coal train, and due to the microscale, you don't needs (...)

Hi, This is my first venture into trains. When I saw the new Bionicles, I imidiately thought of the knee-caps as small coal waggons from the old Welsh coalmining trains. I've made a small attempt at making this into a micro-scale coal-train (1 wide (...) (20 years ago, 12-Apr-04, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.technic.bionicle) !
