what are y'alls thoughts on the new set?

#

I have been waiting for this for months

#

And let me tell you this, I am not really disappointed. The carriages are work of art, nothing like lego have ever done before

#

Engine needs some modifications and I am sure the mighty train community will come up with something nice

#

I believe it should be able to take lego curves even tho there isn't an official motorization

YOOOO!!!!!!! I can't wait to see it in stores. If the pricing is reasonable, I think I might buy.

#

I definately love the interior. They've got a sleeper car and a dining car. I wonder where the regular passenger car is. I guess that's up to MOCers to do.

I wonder how many stickers are there, especially on the exterior

#

It seems like all the orient express logos + city names are prints ❤️

#

Lol it was the first build vid that I came across

#

Only checked this and closed it

#

F

#

Wonder what will they do

#

Also people say these are the fully plastic wheels

#

Good for me lol

#

They gotta deal with it not me

300!??!??!?!!!!

#

That's high

#

I guess that makes sense though given that it's an ideas set and the detail on there is just so hard to resist.

I am super happy seeing crocodile pulling those carriages

#

I was afraid if 7 wide crocodile would be looking small but naah

#

Btw if any of you don't have the crocodile gap mod I highly recommend it. Really good

#

what is the crocodile gap mod

balmy cypress Nov 30, 2023, 1:08 PM

#

#

@pastel blaze There were instructions on eurobricks croc thread afaik. Can't check it rn

#

But visible in the left side of this picture

#

ohh nice it gets rid of the gap

#

I might do that actually

balmy cypress Nov 30, 2023, 2:12 PM

#

Now the real question is how do we make orient express run with 4 carriages

balmy cypress Dec 1, 2023, 3:24 PM

#

Ball bearings??? Lol

#

One carriage may have two motor bogies, what happens when you use one battery box with two motors? Reduced speed but more power ig?

#

Also main friction seems to be from locos driving gear. With crocodile it should be quite easier

I think it looks pretty swanky and i think Lego trains have always been a bit underrated. Ever since they really made an effort on the Hogwarts Express i think the Orient Express was an overdue but very welcome set!

plush hawk Dec 5, 2023, 3:22 PM

#

Well i didn't buy it so i can't really talk... worried I'm talking purely on appearance. Are both sets the same build train, 76423 and 76405?

#

Or set 75955 even joy

#

And let's not forget set 4758

I never really understood why... It has to sell well, otherwise they don't make it over and over again

#

Personally I would prefer to have something new... like the PM 1225 or some american steam loco

#

Or just a new steam train

#

The loco of the Orient is not bad, but not great

#

Although I like the passenger cars

#

They are too good compared to everything else they did
