For those of us for whom work isn't everything (and who've never grown up)



A quick update to my Lego train room - building is progressing well on the towerblock although the minifigs are wondering when Tesco's will arrive....

PS sorry for the big picture, however if you're curious enough you can zoom around :-)

That is brilliant!

Needs a bigger railway though. Can you extend?

Very realistic. Even have someone trying to commit suicide by the looks of it.

Here are a few more - I make no appologies for being sad.... smile

















The Metroliner the last train is especially nice and is really three lego kits in one, all secondhand mind you as the cost on eBay now is silly....

A lot is original from me childhood in the 70's however...

I must now stop looking at new Lego.....!!!!

Totally love it. Rather jealous of how simple yet complex the entire thing is. Definately jealous of how easy your scenery is to make and look wonderful. Great example of peterpan syndrome.

I know what you mean, it shows how much your mind fills in...when I came back to Lego as an adult I over engineered everything and made it as realistic as possible, then thought to hell with it...

Lego looks better the more it looks like Lego!
