Custom passenger train length doubled, hole punched in my mountain! LEGO city update July 22, 2020

I think it looks great the way you did it, it looks very modern to me but we dont have many of those where i live, only a couple cargos

[@shorey66]

On the other hand, it lead you to the awesome train spectacular you now have. Btw, I agree with you Jang, it looks so much more 'train like' now going through those curves. If you set your lighting, set the trains running and uploaded a 3 hour video of it simply running I'd have it on all the time to relax. Amazing work as always.

[@2railnation]

Jang, take a look at the ÖBB Cityjet.

[@legobrickabrac]

In the UK these style trains are the high speed trains that travel about 100 miles from London to Dover but it's only high speed for half the trip. At both ends of the line the train is a normal train service for beginning and end of the trip stopping at about 7 stations at each end. To make your train more realistic I'd make it go off out of your city and then come back in hidden behind your blue cover around the city.

[@motorizedmisfit-artist8535]

It looks so good how the train goes through the curves!

[@shorey66]

Definitely agree with you. So much more 'train like'.

[@netherbrickgamer]

Yeah

[@marckuiper87]

Jang, don't forget: perfect is the enemy of good, so what you said at the end makes perfect (hah) sense and is a very smart way to do your work! I wanted to add that I really appreciate you making this channel as I personally enjoy your city content the most and these updates are great!

[@asjwood]

If there's room, I wonder if the aquarium could be on the other side of the road to the zoo, so it's actually by the sea? Then the monorail could turn towards the sea by the mountain and run between the zoo and aquarium. To me, that would make the monorail extra useful in universe!

[@stuchly1]

Super late reply, but I'm genuinely interested. How do you feel about the way Jang has actually ended up positioning the aquarium in the end?

[@niiinaa]

In Austria, the newer styles of city train and local train ("S-Bahn") have two Aerodynamic ends. Both the diesel and electric powered ones, both the big and small versions. The concept for those is very similar to the concept you have going on. They are usually just short trains with 1 or two cars in between two aerodynamic ends, the smallest version is just those two aerodynamic ends stuck together. If you wanna have a look, search for "OEBB CityJet" or "OEBB S-Bahn". The ones I'm talking about usually have red and grey colours. To make a long-ish story short, your orange train has always made perfect sense to me. In fact, with that many cars it reminds me mostly of an ICE-3 which is a fast intercity train as I'm sure you're aware. This is not a complaint in any way, I like both versions a lot and the longer train does snake beautifully through your city. Out of curiosity, have you considered building your not-end cars in a sort of 2-2 configuration? As in 2 in the Newer style with the black bricks and two in the older style with the orange bricks at the ends.

[@leroderickstrong7700]

Two aerodynamic ends in France too since almost 20 years

[@obi-wanshrekobi8767]

People: Complaining about the train having aerodynamic ends on both sides. Also people: Complaining about the train looking weird. Edit: if my english is bad it is my second language.

[@BlindingLight]

It’s fine, the people complaining are probably Americans that have never seen high speed trains from other countries.

[@legobrickabrac]

It looks like a high speed train. In UK the high speed go from London to Dover about 100 miles one end the the other. On both ends it stops at about 7 stations it's not on a loop so it reverses at the end of the line on each end.

[@tedkoller5918]

your english is perfect.

[@stuchly1]

Good english.

[@lbricks7631]

That city makes me pine for a simple, yet beautiful world like this.

[@WoodenRailwayEdward]

I've watched you for 6 years Jang, and I'm so happy that you have created an entire channel about the city! :D

[@Tech_Marauder]

Jang it would look better if you just made each car have an aerodynamic end on both sides and then one facing upwards as well on every other car. Actually if you just got rid of the cars entirely and just joined two aerodynamic ends directly together I think everyone would agree it looked better. But of course, it would be important that you modify the aerodynamic ends to be flat too. Okay, I'm joking, its obvious you really just need to stack two trains on top of each other, one with aerodynamic ends on both sides and one without.

[@JANGcity]

🤣

[@justinmsc5]

😂 Or follow the natural evolution to just have a single two story engine car with six aerodynamic ends on it and call it a day.

[@michaelcasserly5861]

Awesome glad it is working out for you JANG. It looks great. Thank you for sharing JANG.

[@InventorZahran]

Jang describing literally every custom Lego thing he's ever built: "It's a combination of things that I have never put together before..."

[@ceciliaFX]

watching that train go around was SOOOO satisfying. And I'm very excited to see the hole in the mountain because I know the tram will look fabulous in the zoo.

[@swtc_saga]

I really do not care about trains in most instances, but the way you talk about your trains and building process is so fascinating

[@cdnbricks1459]

I'd go with one of your original plans for the zoo train platform and put it inside the mountain if you have room. You could build a cool pedestrian entrance into the mountain where you have already punched out the mountainside. I'm sure whatever you choose will look great! We need more train running footage!!! Of this longer passenger train and the new cargo cars! New portable camera rig looks and sounds great.

[@Admb_]

It's like a giant snake slithering through the city I like it

[@DZstudios.]

I love LEGO trains and MOCing them!

[@defenderprime8046]

I actually really like the fact that you made your passenger train longer, it's way more realistic now, even thought these trains can travel at incredible speeds in reality, it's close enough, cool work! Glad to see the update for that monorail, progress is going fast, nice work, Jang!

[@Joe-nd6km]

Very cool to watch your past city updates/interviews and really see how far everything has come. Also dig your views and random thoughts throughout your videos. Cant wait to see this all evolve

Woah, that train’s a big boi!

[@b1battledroid18]

Fantastic update Jang :) I think it would be a good idea to put tall trees along the monorail track. Otherwise it may look a little bit out of place. Also maybe you could put some exhibitions on eye level for the minifigs. Birds monkeys etc. Keep it up

[@ThomasTheorist]

I can see why a lot of Thomas the tank fans are also fans of Jangbricks cause he really just GETS the appeal of what trains are.

[@toamastar]

So glad to see you working on this city again! I was watching your main channel for so long, not realising you had migrated this content to a new channel, glad i finally found out! :)

[@benstoever]

I really like the look of the new train. Tbh, I've never seen a train with only one aerodynamic end, so I don't know where people got this idea from. Nowadays (at least in Europe) directions of trains are not really a thing anymore, since they change their directions frequently. either during trips or in between them. The only exception I could think of would be trains that have a locomotive on one side and a steering unit on the other. I feel that these are becoming rare, though. Most passenger trains (regional, local and long distance) in Europe (and maybe everywhere) are now fixed assemblies with many or all of their wheels powered and without any real cars or locomotives. You often even see additional aerodynamic ends within a train when two of such assemblies are connected.

[@4.99dollarchickenstripbask7]

With the entire city you've got, and all the trains, cars, boats, and minifigures, you could totally make a stop motion channel!

[@silksong5379]

I love this new channel- In my opinion this was the best part of the main channel, keep up the great work Jang!

[@IWASRANSOMED]

Not sure how you can make it better, but this camera is doing a great job! Everything looks sharp and the colors are really really good. Definitely feels professional.

[@TravelTime311]

Suggestion: 1) widen the train tunnel so that the train and monorail fit under/through the tunnel 2) would be cool to add a monorail curve at the elevated end into the mountain and make another tunnel entrance into the mountain around the curved monorail track.

[@kasperbuyens3562]

1) it wouldn't make sense imo to do that and 2) that would likely be to weak to hold up the mountain

[@Hippienolic2]

Awesome trains!!!

[@robertvanstaalduinen7245]

Nice FOV from the new camera, wide angle is refreshing change to all the close ups. Awesome work as always

[@lsorange460]

[@TheVleckChannel]

The longer train definitely looks better. Are you lengthening any platforms to accommodate it?

[@sambrown6426]

I should hope so!

[@legobrickabrac]

Trains like this in UK are high speed trains, if they stop at stations that are shorter then the length of the train an announcement with say "Passengers much enter and exit from the front 4 coaches only, please make sure you are on the correct part of the train" So no Jang don't need to make his stations longer.

Looking good Jang. I forgot to say in the last video I do know what a Zoo Train is. When the Metro Toronto Zoo opened in 1976, it had a Monorail "ride" to take people around the Zoo. I don't expect you to do this, but after seeing the hole in the mountain for your Monorail, I thought maybe a "dark" exhibit could be there, like the insects, and the Monorail not only gives the Mini-figs a view of the Zoo but actually takes them someplace to an exhibit. Waiting for the next update.

also, I would use both ends of the monorail, so you can put the fake locomotive part on one end and the passenger area on the other. plus if you're making an old train long you might as well make your new train long to match.

For what it's worth the Japanese Bullet Trains have the aerodynamic ends on both the front and the 'back'

[@99lodewijk]

Most trains have that because once they reach the end of the track, the driver can then just sit in the other cabin to go back.

EMUs generally have symmetrical ends. The original criticism was, that a 3 car train is a slower regional train where the ends would not be as aerodynamic as the ones on Jang's train were.
