Video

Will you maybe make a video sometime where you show all of your Lego trains?

I want know how i can go to this place like do i have to pay anything to visit or do i just go in to the town hall in wörrstadt germany and look at some train?

I am gonna go to this place in 2025 im telling you. And maybe i will see you!

Amazing! I like that you featured the train hub so prominently. What do you normally use to drive these trains? The remote or do you program them? :)

I recognize a lot of stuff by the nazis who run Eurobricks. Horrible site.

Could have got Lego to create some R236 standard 9volt track for the train bridge. Could have made the curve another brands track radius. Could have not included a useless bridge in the set. Instead went with a train bridge without train track...

This set is absolutely amazing unfortunate that it didn’t get more orders I believe most people didn’t think it was worth the price and didn’t want to pay so much for mostly a bridge but to me that is what really holds the set together I of course picked this up alongside studtgate and my previously ordered old train engine shed can’t wait for this to arrive!

I love the train, ordered 1. The bridge on the other hand I am no fan of. Why wasnt the bridge built with the same curve as standard lego track? The bridge is not even built to use any types of Lego curved track, no one sells R236. So if the bridge is a train bridge but cant be used as a train bridge...Then what use is it? Plus two thirds of all the pieces go into the train bridge that cannot be used as a train bridge, which is infuriating. Please think what you are doing when designing sets. If a part of the set is not fit for purpose then do not include it until it is fit for purpose, make changes. Secondly- Lego designers, stop using non standard rail track systems, this includes the ancient 12volt track pieces that cant be joined to standard 9volt track as well as this clips and tiles method that also cant be joined with lego track, JUST USE LEGO TRACK LIKE LEGO DOES...I do not understand how this is not a rule, it would have saved me a lot of work trying to figure out ways of joining these awful systems to normal track. I wonder if the designer realises how many people did not buy this set because of that useless bridge, it stopped me getting two. Did no one at Lego enquire what are people supposed to do with the train bridge part that has no train track? That would have been MY FIRST QUESTION.

I preordered mine as well! Could you make a video showing it motorized running around on some track? I’m dying to see this masterpiece going around a layout!

I have one on order but tbh I'm not a huge fan of almost half the piece count being the elevated railway. I would've liked a larger train with at least more than one tree car than needless track.

Did you play Railroads online by chance? It looks a lot like the "starter train" (betsy and a flat car) 😄 Can't wait to receive my copy of the set in November

I per-ordered it and have a place for it in my layout. It actually solves a small problem I've had. For my job I end of having to travel the US a lot for different surveys in National Forests and sometime military bases (Sorry I can't be more specific but I do need to protect what I survey). I happened to do some work in Mississippi last year, in a place where they did a lot of logging in the 1800s. While conducting my survey I ran into a well preserved dummy line (no track sadly) originally made to haul the logged wood out of the forest, the remain was about 2.5 m (6ish ft) tall and a couple hundred meters long. Now when i work i like to look for places that i can include in my layout, and because of that discovery I have been planning to add a logging branch line. My biggest problem was I didn't have a locomotive for it, as most of my current ones would not be able to operate on this sort of line. Once I saw your set on the program I knew this was the solution to my problem. I plan to fully integrate this set into the branch line I have planned. You may not have had a lot of preorders (yet) but, I think that yours had been the best locomotive so far in the program.

I absolutely love the model, bought two, and can't wait to build them and power them up. They'll be coming with me and displayed while running at the three yearly Tasmanian lego shows. I'd have ordered three if I could have!

Obvious it is look at the detail it doesn’t have to be motorized

Hi Ties, it's a real shame that your train set didn't sell better. On the other hand, over 10,000 copies sold is still a success. I think it's because buyers are put off by the price of a small unmotorized train and a large bridge. Another reason is probably the brick-built rails, as they cannot be connected to the standard rails. This also leads me to a question: Is the bridge construction flexible? I also have track radii from other manufacturers such as TrixBrix and they also have significantly wider radii. Do you think the construction is so flexible and pliable that you could build a wide radius on the bridge? In any case, I like your design and have also secured a set for my collection.

Excellent, Ties! Pre-ordered one! 🙌 Thank you for paying such attention to detail, your Lego trains are always great to look at and inspiring for techniques! 👍 Undecided on whether to order a second set as it now seems I won't be depriving someone else at this availability stage of the pre-order process! We so rarely get Lego steam locos that BDP sets like this are so great to have available! 😂😂

We could have had the train for about $80 without that awful impossible to use bridge. People want sets they can integrate with the rest, we do not want sets with a bridge we cannot integrate with the rest. I cannot work out the thinking process where supposedly intelligent people got together and looked at this stupid unusable bridge and then came to the conclusion that a train bridge without train track is a good idea?????...HOW DID THIS PASS INSPECTION???

Why didnt it use normal Lego track? Why would you use clips and tiles when it is impossible to have these join to normal track? Why have a curved bridge that is a totally different curve than normal Lego track? What is the point of a huge bridge that is impossible to use as a train bridge? If the bridge is useless why include it in the set? I want the train, I do not want a pointless huge impossible to use curved bridge. This is without any doubt the most annoying Lego set EVER. Sell me the TRAIN, keep your crappy useless bridge.

The narrow gauge transfer mechanism is genius!

Great video - like.

I love the design of the train, but the bridge adds too much to the cost for the bricklink designer program 😢 How much would it cost to source all the parts for the train on bricklink? It's probably the same as buying the whole set, right?

I love the loco and the cabooze, they are amazing!

Nice cinematics

The set is available to pre-order now through BrickLink: www.bricklink.com/v3/designer-program/series-2/642/Logging-Railway Electronics to power the model are not included.

We love your train so much! We bought 2!!! 🚂 🥳

So excited to play with this set!!! Currently trying to reverse engineer the log car so I can have a few extra by the time the set arrives :))

The bridge gives me mad nostalgia for a similar one for a now (tourist) train in a beautiful forest where I grew up. Ordered this morning. (Copied comment from other video but I'm so excited!)

Love some porters!

Already purchased my copy! So stoked to display this with my other LEGO trains

Ni

are those tiles mounted 90 degrees as track! That's an awesome technique

Is it compatible with real lego train tracks?

It’s not a LEGO train show without somebody launching something off the table and into the next dimension.

Will the set come with the motor and battery to power the train, or will we need to buy that separately?

I’ve never bought anything from BDP yet, but I NEED this!! As a huge train fan this is everything to me, I’m a little worried about the buying process though, does anyone know how quicky these things usually sell out?

Behind the scenes please!

Good to know this bridge can be used for a Lego train layout.

look's smaller than what you can expect, quite delusional.

Will buy

The ONLY way this could be better..... is if the steam engine was a working Shay locomotive!!!

Wair is tbus based on that logging sim game

Reminds me of Brecon beacon

I might buy one!

We love this, but the bridge takes up so many pieces so it made it $210. If it was less, I'd DEFINITELY buy it. (I still plan on it regardless of price lol)

In awe at the track technique. New possibilities!

I dont know what it is with me and LEGO trains but everytime i see videos like this i just want to buy a load of LEGO train sets and build ny own train tard/station. Arguable second favourite LEGO theme. Great video

WOW I WILL BUY

i love logging locomotives my favorite loco is the 2-6-6-2 mallet with the spilt saddle tank

Sad as one would almost need two to build a longer bridge
