Hello again everyone! I finally got around to taking pictures of a lot of
the MOC’s I built this spring and summer for the two shows we did this year.
This MOC is a few tanker cars I built based off of a design by James Mathis.
The design is relatively simple. The biggest problem is finding the facet
bricks in the necessary colors and quantities to build these. I’m currently
working on a couple of alternate tanker designs as well.
More pictures and information are available at...

Any critiques or comments are appreciated.

Hi Dave,
Pretty good! Some of the better looking tankers I’ve seen. I’ve always wanted to
build tankers myself, and even tried a couple times, but I have always been
frustrated by the fact that LEGO never produced cylindrical parts with the
correct diameter to make them realistic looking. The “My Own Train” tankers
always annoy me, because they are so big and fat, when you put one in the middle
of a realistic looking train, it makes the train look like a baby’s toy rather
than a big kid’s toy. :) I think your solution is probably as good as I’ve seen
though. Good work. Mark
