In 2021 I embarked on a simple quest, I desperately wanted a more realistic Lego Hogwarts Express locomotive. Now my GWR Hall class is completed and you too can build your own with my free instructions on the Open L-Guage.

The boiler looks rather slim, doesn’t feel awfully accurate, but whilst working within the limitations of the bricks you’ve certainly done well, and absolutely did a far better job than Lego themselves do with their steam trains! Can’t wait to see more

@@Hacksworth_Sidings yeah it really needed to be 5 studs but I'm just not keen on the brick built boilers

@Scott_3F Месяц назад

For the 4 wide boiler a set of xl drivers fit much better but, the xxl drivers are understandable with the scale youre going for and would look very nice with a 5 wide boiler, i would recommend british bricks's tutorial as its great for having a frame of reference for bigger boilers/techniques that can be used for boilers

@@icerod9961 I may tinker with brick built boilers in the future if I try a King or Castle. For now I'm content with this for my Hall

I think you need to put flat wheels in the middle because as you probably saw the driving wheels lock up on turns and flat wheels normally work

@BrickBuiltBench Месяц назад

@@Gremlinkid a blind driver is definitely an option but since tinkering I've never had it lock up since. The big difference is definitely adding a silicone based grease to the axles. At this kind of size and complexity you definitely have to start treating it like a model locomotive 👍

0:22 The tender looks really big next to the engine and coaches

@@jamesgroccia644 yeah in that early version the tender was dwarfing everything as it had to hold a regular City Hub. And those coaches were so short too😂

This looks amazing. Yours looked much better than Lego’s. Lego’s 18+ version is a total let down( same with the Orient Express). But I’m still annoyed with the color. Was it a dark red in the films? But it’s ok I guess with color. Now if Lego does the Polar Express than I’ll get that than Olton Hall, like she’s beautiful but Pere Marquette 1225 is just amazing as she is as a Berkshire. Or other movie star locomotives that the owners wouldn’t mind for a set to be made.

@@justincole1510 thanks! I stuck with bright red for 3 reasons. First, as I had been modifying the sets my coaches were already in the red colour and so I wanted them to match. The second reason was down to cost, dark red is a pain in the butt just like dark green. The final reason was I always felt like the locomotive in the film was too dark. If it's supposed to be a magical train why does it look so dreary? I think like myself they already had coaches in that colour so they just painted the train that colour to match 😂

Hello sir do you know what size wheel does the Hogwarts express use in the video because as I was going to buy the wheels but not sure if it's xl size or other ones

@BrickBuiltBench Месяц назад

@@gracehtun4312 I used XXL for the driving wheels and Medium wheels for the tender. Don't forget to make sure 4 of your medium wheels have traction bands!
