While surfing the net, I found this interesting little link.

Must be worth a visit by any and all who are into QR locomotives.

Very good! NR75 looks quite realistic.
Can you get CoCo bogies in Lego?



The world is being strangled by public liability insurance and litigation and nobody seems to notice!

Here's a QR CityTrain EMU in Lego. It's a design, at least, there're no photos of the actual item, just CG images. Nice, though!

I've tried in vain to make a Tangara out of Lego. It just won't work, there's no way to create the beautiful slanting front end. Sad

Those lego models look great. It would be great to put one on an exhibition layout.

The Tangara is hard - why not try the Milennium? Although the front is a bit more curved and slanted. The Endeavour/Xplorer is slightly slanted at front, but comes flat at the pilot area.

Not motorised bogies, they only come in Bo.

You can however have a bogie of three unpowered axles if you wish.
