Hi all,

I’ve been working to recreate some of the great classic town/train sets within the bounds imposed by the piece assortment on LDD. The Motorail Terminal is, I think, one of the more impressive results of this project. And I’ve produced a rendering:

And the car carrier (which includes a small car): http://shop.lego.com/Product/?p=LFH002&mid=96970349-911c-4ddb-9b61-fd3221d99ce2

I’ll post more pictures here as I create more models: http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=211956

It's nice to see someone working in this way. I especially enjoyed (...) (18 years ago, 11-Nov-06, to lugnet.trains, FTX)
