LEGO city new terrain feature & train tunnel overview

[@JANGcity]

I thought this video was going too long, but then I neglected to show the two big pop-up sections that are built into the terrain, giving me easy access to the tracks inside in case a train ever derails in there! Of course, since I used a ton of extra time designing & building those cutaways, *now* I'm guaranteed trains will always go through smoothly 😆 Either way, mission accomplished!

[@OFFICERBRICK]

Looks great 👍

[@RAX4R]

I'd like longer vids, especially the train stuff! even if its just rambling toughts on planning or ideas! good to have you back.

[@Pyth110]

Long videos are good!

[@Lego6980]

I saw those on Beyond the Brick - Really well done. That hill generally looks as good as it gets. Love the rock variety and the foliage. Also the pool of collected water with reeds in it. Good work Jang and thanks for sharing.

[@CharlieStuart-lx3bx]

very cool always love a train update

[@messerlittle6166]

Zoo adjacent to an industrial zone makes total sense. Zoos and industrial parks take up a lot of land and tend to be built on the periphery of cities where land is relatively cheap.

[@willowweedsYT]

That’s what I thought too! Makes perfect sense that the zoo would be built where the land is cheap and in close proximity to warehouses and deliveries.

[@Al8lack]

So glad you're posting New Jang City updates again. They're genuinely one of my favourite things on the whole of KZbin! I especially love the updates about the railway. ❤️

[@ActionJacksonVideos]

I’m floored at how well thought out and interconnected the track layout is. I love how the citizens are basically in a public transit utopia and having a car here isn’t at all necessary. It’s gorgeous and I can’t wait to see what the next updates entail!

[@bananacat5820]

Love more inclusion of unique terrain pieces in the city, it adds so much more realism and depth to the city and overall makes it feel very natural

[@storm5936]

The idea of a small hill to cover up the train bend is both super simple & yet super genius, kudos Jang!👍

[@JamesBrophy]

"Because I want it there!" Best answer! :) really enjoying seeing your city develop.

[@TheIronWaffle]

I love both your scientific approach to the terrain and how you explain it. The organic look really shines.

[@saturday.avenue]

This is a gorgeous addition to your cityscape! That extra elevation & foliage is the perfect buffer between the downtown and the industrial area.. gives the illusion that there could be miles between the two zones. Nice work!

[@GodIsGoodArmadeus]

Couldn’t have said it better myself!

[@taqresu5865]

That is a much more succinct way of putting it. I just made a comment like this, and ended up spending basically a whole paragraph lol

[@WattoXtreme]

I love the little pond on the top!

[@TheElohim1]

Aii I was just watching the 2 hour beyond the brick video staring you 🔥

[@SenseiBricks]

I really love the addition of the pond, makes it look beautiful

[@jennifercrosby1453]

As an earth scientist I love all the thought you’ve put into the geology. It looks great!

[@inflex4456]

That piece of rock is so lively and colorful... Breathtaking and sort of train related ;)

[@JobberE69]

That's simply genius Jang -- helps separating the spaces without being too intrusive, and you did a great job with the detailing of it! 🙂

[@henrydegroff4282]

I absolutely love this. Terrain builds have always been one of my favorites, I'm a big geography and geology nut. This makes me want to build some terrain of my own, maybe in a wild west display.

[@InventorZahran]

That new hill is impressive! It gives the illusion of a longer rail line, since we can't clearly see that it's a loop right there. And B.U.R.P.s don't look ugly at all when you integrate them this smoothly!

[@mastterby]

So glad to be getting regular updates on this again! This new addition really reminds me of taking the train around Sheffield in the UK, it's a very hilly city, so there's lots of old tunnels and steep walls of rock near the tracks and yards.

[@JoyJoyJenny]

The new terrain looks lovely, great for mini figs to go mountain biking/hiking/nature walks. Looking forward to seeing the trains running the new loops :)

[@Tech_Marauder]

You put a lot more thought into this than I think most people would and it seems to me it paid off quite nicely. The terrain looks pretty natural to me. The old gray blends very well with the dark tan

[@natefourreal]

that looks so good I love how it boarders the Mall, looks super cool and really natural for being made out of LEGO

[@pierre-luco9056]

Really love the terrain, especially the way you you extended the side at the entrance, it give a more natural look

[@Gameprojordan]

Your mountainous/rocky sections are so nicely built with tons of detail! They really help with giving pockets of vibrant wilderness around the city, especially the industrial sectors like the rail yard

[@madscitechify]

The city is looking nice! can you have your trains running during your next update? they just look so cool, i'd love to see the city when its 'alive'!

[@giubbottomang.4910]

I love the way you represented this natural corner, so organic. The tan and brown pieces paired with those dark green bushes feel very real.

[@caesaratsumata8299]

I just love how this city is changing and growing with time.

[@buymagicfish]

I love the drone and the hiker, nice little touch :D

[@PltOffPPrune]

Love how the colours blend from dark bluish grey, to old grey, to dark tan in that section of the hill. Also really appreciate the thought you've put into the foliage/moisture distribution. Inspirational as ever!

[@starhunter2300]

As you get older, you will appreciate that U shaped layout. I'm 60 years old with major back issues and wouldn't dream of crawling under tables. Great update. Your city looks amazing.

[@NicklePickle]

the trains have always been my favourite part of this, im jealous of your setup

[@Etienne.6329]

I love the hill... it almost looks like nanoblock with that build technique

[@Insane_IK]

I love the higher amount of height variation, very pretty!

[@ericharms9734]

I am so happy you are doing this again. The soothing sound of your voice, explaining your updates, your plans and your love of this creation. Thanks for giving this another shot again.

[@jasonnikolic]

Oh man you have a tunnel in a mountain for the train. Wow would love to see that going

[@redstarfire4037]

It's always a pleasure to get a view at your lego city. Thank you for showing it to us viewers ❤

[@Zenlore6499]

My word, this looks nice! I love the use of the old grey rocks and the thoughtfulness of settling water. So cool!

[@lbricks7631]

The Dark Tan in the mountain feels natural, and also adds colour. Well Thought of.

[@MathieuTVNEWS]

Très intelligent d'avoir utilisé les anciens gris avec les nouveaux, votre colline ajoute de la verdure et contraste avec le paysage industriel c'est très beau bravo, hâte de voir l'évolution

[@garycpriestley]

Absolutely LOVE the mountain to cover the switch area. Unplanned terrain builds are how I work.... with mixed results but always satisfying process. Great stuff! I also overlooked the practical use of Duplo bricks to support large mountain areas.... will have to give that a try next! Finally, the little pond is a very special little treat - love it most of all.

[@MxSpoike]

I can practically hear the water burbling in the little stream! I adore the attention to flow and other detail so much!

[@JBabyLeather]

I love the commercial plaza that that area of the city is becoming. Not only do you have the shopping mall, but it’s now going to have a big shopping center. An outdoor mall with it. Plus I love that your city is becoming a lot more of a walkable city and not just Constrained by the streets. All that is to say that it really feels like it’s developing a lot more into a great city for all the Lego people. And the trains look really great too. I love that you added this rock structure that gives a lot more character to that part of the city. And while it disguises the tracks a little bit, it’s still makes it clear that the trains are in integral part of the city. Plus, it just looks so much more cool with all these mountains everywhere. I really love what your city is becoming. I hope you’ll do more videos of the buildings that you were going to build in the commercial plaza.

[@danielunderwood5217]

I lovethe variation of the soil/rock/turf colors to show different compositions and minerals. I also love the variation of the plants on the different surfaces. many times, a hill/mountain like that will appear fairly uniform or simple from a distance, amd then as you look closer, you can see the details and subtle varieties in the design/color/foliage. In your design you can see the variety from across the room, and then see additional depth of variety on close inspection. both are good ways to make a design, and I'm not saying one is better than the other. I love this. A beautiful addition to New Jang City but...have you considered replacing it with a parking lot That's a joke. Keep up the imaginative work, and create the City the way YOU want it to be . You are a great inspiration to all lego builders!

[@warfighter4129]

Happy to see you uploading updates on your city again! Crazy how it has evolved over the years.

[@brickspector]

I’ve always loved seeing things stand the test of time in your city. Little buildings here or there like the gem/jewelry store and the Yeti tire store give me so much nostalgia and it brings me so much joy to mentally point them out in every new update! I’m so glad you’re dedicating time into things like this that make you happy!

[@smhcoolguy5024]

I absolutely love this city!

[@dowen01]

Good to see this channel on the go again, love seeing your progress and hearing your ideas and thoughts.

[@jennifersweet3740]

I absolutely LOVE this new landscape, great addition to the city! Hope to do something similar in my own setup someday. The details are great, thanks for sharing Jang. ❤

[@taqresu5865]

I really love watching your City expand and grow. I think terraforming tunnel you created also works well as a transition. If you imagine that the mountain and the gap for the walking space stretch out beyond the table space, it kind of gives the impression that your City is much, much larger than what we see built up. For your Minifigs, the distance between the two major sections could be quite a few miles/kilometers apart and the city could be nestled between the mountain and the sea. At least that's how I might imagine it. It's your City Jang, and your vision. If what you imagine is completely different, that's fine. I find your City inspiring, regardless. In the meantime, I'm just sorting pieces.

[@danielweir4644]

I love the city videos. They have always been my favorite part of your channels.🎉 So glad you’re showing more of your creativity again.

[@Carvur]

Yes! The video we've all been waiting for. Looking excellent. Love the freight yard and everything you've done with the railway.

[@NathanBudd]

Having watched your previous two videos, I wasn't quite sure what I could add in the comments that hadn't already been said. Now that I watch one of your "normal" videos again... I have decided that I want to say how great your channel is. The content, the manner in which it's delivered, the respect that you have for your audience it all fantastic. Yours was the first Lego KZbin channel I started watching and got me back into the hobby that I loved so much as a child. Thw way you build is excellent! Although it's an incredibly old video, I re-watched your mall video recently and I'm still in awe as to the level of detail and realism you manage to put into all of your builds. I must admit that when I saw how much of your layout you planned to allocate to your trains, I was sceptical (but obviously didn't comment as such, as it's your city), primarily because I felt that it would reduce the amount of buildings and intricate detail in the city. As it turns out, your whole train yard is fantastic! The detail is great and the angles and builds relating to the trains are truly inspirational. At the time I didn't own a Lego train set, and didn't really understand the appeal. I also had never seen a train yard in real life (we have a single platform station in my UK town), but having now owned a train seen a yard at similar scal to yours now I understand the attraction. Yours is only one of two channels that I have notifications turned on for, and I am really glad that you're back in a place where you're happy creating content again. I haven't used Twitch before, as I don't watch gamers live-stream, but I may well look into it if you're streaming your city building content on there, as it would be a shame to miss out. Thank you for the great content, and I hope you continue to enjoy building and sharing your builds with others in the future.

[@shanest.lawrence3692]

You did excellent job on mixing rock work with plant life

[@BrooksBricks]

Very awesome that we got to see you build this in real time on Twitch (and some patreon streams) and hear your !process throughout. I think it looks fantastic, and so well detailed, while serving the function you intended in a "natural" kind of way!

[@BrickWorks19]

Looks great! I love how it curves around the mall

[@Monkeyhat549]

The trees look great! I love how you used the old and new greys in this!

[@Angrist17]

That is such a cool rock feature with the realistic water / drainage and resulting tree / plant life. The old dark grey is perfect with the tan. I find a lot of Lego cities tend to have too many roads connecting things together. Once we imagine the city continuing beyond the edges of the tables it makes sense that the connecting streets are right where the human walkways are. Can't wait to see what you do with the extra space it freed up.

[@JagUriel]

Yeaaa! Always a great day when we get new JANGCity content! Thanks man!

[@mynamedoesntmatter3129]

My partner and I have long been big fans of your channel, and I just wanted to (finally) leave a comment and say thank you. Not only for your reviews, or the content you put out, but also just for trying to be a genuine human being on the internet. Your knowledge, empathy, and willingness to view things from not only another person's perspective, but also the perspective of children as well, lends all of your videos a much needed feeling of wholesomeness. In a period where communities and Fandom in general continues to become more divisive, you try your very best to create a space that is welcoming, and accepting. You create a platform based on informed decision making, and kind honesty being at the forefront of how you operate, not only professionally, but just in general online. Tl:dr Thank you doing what you do.

[@zombiedad]

Nice! Love the hilly terrain feature with the different geology. Good stuff. All looks amazing ❤❤

[@hanschow5457]

Such a beautiful city! I love the intricacies of the railway system and the thought you put into the geography. Thank you for sharing. Quick question: On a scale of 1 to 10, 1 being easy and 10 being impossible, how hard is it to resist the urge to zoom along the streets with a Lego car? It's a 10 from me! ZOOM!😁

[@islasorna7805]

Really like the look of this, both as a cover/divider and it's color. Gives me a western mountain vibe, could see an old gold mine diorama fitting right at home here. Great work Jang

[@MayoHosko]

I always appreciate it when city builders build natural geological formations above railway tunnels. It looks so natural. Looks way better than a parking lot 😉

[@markellifson4910]

The revamped city looks great Jang. I'm glad you shared what you did and what the future will bring. Thanks Jang

[@jakes6083]

That terrain section and the beach looks epic! It’s awesome to watch you grow as a master builder over the years

[@Stinkles_]

So happy to see more updates, this was a smart and nice looking way to route the trains the way you wanted, and I love seeing more terrain and dimensionality. I look forward to seeing some trains running these new routes!

[@ptnnguyen]

What a great solution to add a transition and get some beautiful terrain work into your city. Nice use of the old grey bricks! Everything looks very organic and I really like the detail of the water and the plants growing around and in it. I'm looking forward to seeing more of the mall in the future! It's fun to see what the citizens are up to. I like your cars on the parking strip too!

[@wickedjoejoe8631]

I think your doing a good job on your city and layout keep up the great work can't wait to see the next video

[@johnvocatura]

Awesome Jang. Super happy to see you moving forward with your original designs. Looking forward to watching your future videos.

[@guleri]

I like the train tunnel and how it has some nice shapes and angles and not just a straight wall where you have the tunnel openings. Also a lot of nice details with the vegetaition and water.

[@BulletNoseBetty]

Wow!!!! The mountain transition is absolutely fantastic! Just wondering--with all the changes, are you going rename New Jang City as New New Jang City? Just kidding, of course. I'm really looking forward to seeing what's next.

[@kylesherer59]

Looks great dude, glad ur continuing what makes you happy

[@eugenejoo189]

This is amazing! The terrain looks so good with all the colors and I loved hearing all your logic behind it! Listening to you talk about your plans for the city was also so heartwarming, I could really tell how much passion goes into it. Excited to see what you do next!

[@leroy1154]

So do you think you'll add more terrain elevations through out the city? Or do you currently plan to keep it mostly flat?

[@lancelehman1105]

The terrain looks really cool! It took me back a minute, because it looks so much like a place I was at once hiking in the mountains here. It is really accurate and very nice! And the way the trains go all around the city......that is also very cool and thought out. All of it is so interesting and detailed. I love this!

[@crockyvorn93]

It’s good your coming back to yt

[@noahstalcup155]

the new terrain does so much for this side of the display. Love it! Also excited to see what's next for the outlet area.

[@EvilLobsterKing]

The talk about he open air mall/shopping area actually kinda got me a little excited. I wanna go there and wander around

[@gunnarpapst8452]

This is absolutely delightful!!! I love both the lush terrain as well as its clever utility!! Great job Jang and thanks for the update!!

[@jarroddavis2876]

I love how much thought you put into everything

[@fizzgibble]

Love the old dark grey in the terrain, makes for some good looking rocks

[@san_venganza10]

The terrain looks amazing! My favorite part is pond and greenery around it

[@mr.greenfly5090]

Very nice and natural looking terrain! I like the idea to seperate the szenes with the natural barrier!

[@davidheier]

The amount of interest and investment I have for the geological formations and moisture patterns of this hill in a Lego train layout in someone's basement lol. Great work as always!

[@bond8654]

That new terrain piece looks so good. The way you take the geology and moisture into consideration makes it look so believable and natural, gives me proper model train set terrain vines. I really hope you end up doing more sections of elevated terrain around the city, it totally takes it to the next level. I know you're not keen on suggestions for the city, but... That terrain is VERY cool! 👌🏻 Much love, dude ❤

[@Frog_Anarchy]

I love that we are getting to see your city again. your city was such a inspiration for me to build my own city. happy building friend.

[@HazardxUndead]

Love the look of this, Jang! Taking lots of inspiration from your techniques here as I'm trying to raise my city to accommodate an underground subway system. Your foliage builds are amazing and the mix of the dark tan into the terrain adds so much to the overall look of it!

[@MG-sy8pj]

It looks fantastic, Jang and It's fun to hear your plans for the future. The hollow stump is right by the new terrain feature. I love catching glimpses of that part! Thanks:)

[@Mr_Waffle.]

Impressed how clean it all is now, looking forward to the pedestrian mall bit!

[@luisemoralesfalcon4716]

I really need to go get a weekend to both clean and organize my LEGO World as well see if I can order more parts for a few projects I have in the backburner.

[@brickartisan]

A lot of great details on the mountain area. Great job 😊

[@GIJOEFAN-ys8gp]

I think the large mountain works well as it gives the illusion that the industrial section on the other side could be miles away from the city and that the layout is much more bigger than it really is given the limitation of space.

[@willbricksproductions]

I’m glad to see this really coming along and u living up to your full potential with a complete custom city without modulars

[@ThatGuyNamedJoe]

cant wait to see you smooth out the base of it in the future ! it looks great, amazing color choices, it looks very natural. Always a big fan of your more natural type builds.

[@BrickBuildmeister]

Love the old gray in that mountain tunnel thing rock work.

[@YellowNoseProductions]

I think it’s awesome that you still have that 4-4-0 steam train built!

[@joshpeters1758]

I absolutely love this section, I remember first watching you video on that mall too so seeing it’s surrounds revolve is really cool. I love the usage of the BURP’s I think this is the perfect usage for such a piece, and the attention to the environment is just amazing, awesome job man!

[@doffie_doff]

Looks awesome! I really like how thought-trough the mountain is with the little pond and the vegetation variation

[@nathanielnicholson559]

Looking great! The rock work is a beautiful addition, on its own and in the layout. I believe your 'pond' would be a vernal pool, but you'll want to consult science on that one. Can't wait to see some rolling on those tracks :) and don't worry about going too long, we can pause as needed, but surely do save some for more videos haha

[@crasheagle2010]

Absolutely love trains, great to see more and liking the new layout

[@melvinbricks]

The turnaround by the yard looks amazing. The terrain work looks like it's off of Lego masters or like stuff you'd see at a Brickfair. Amazing job covering it up 👏👏
