3:28 And that's one of several reasons I build 8-wide trains, specifically I build to the scale of 8 studs=10 feet, give or take a couple inches, plus a bit extra for details sticking out the side like handrails and ladders. The other reasons are that the larger trains just look more in-scale with minifigs and 6-wide cars, they look more impressive, and the increased size allows me to make them much more detailed than is possible with 6-wide trains, at the cost of increased part count, wider clearance requirements, (especially on the inside of curves, passenger cars be really long) and the awkwardness of running the Lego City trains, which I don't care about anyway. I'd love to get 2 Orient Express sets though, rebuild the interior of the cars from one set, and use the parts from both locomotives plus some of my own parts to build a much better, fully motorized locomotive, but that's a hefty expense I can't spare right now, unfortunately

What I like about your videos more than other channels is that we get to see your thought processes, the step by step build and great humorous monologue. I get way more ideas for my own builds by seeing and hearing your ideas than a speed build or quick assembly or “look what I built off screen”. Keep up they great work! You are excellent at creating stories and visual humor.

If you get more train parts like this and build a flat fronted cab you could have a sprinter type train to pull this around the city. Just 2 components one being the power source and possibly more space for ultra agents and the other for the hq.

An amazing build as always! In regard to the ladder idea, what about long 2 wide plate piece on a small turntable and hinge that goes over the top in train car mode to create a more seamless connection between each side of the roof but then swings 90 degrees and hinges down to create a ramp/walkway up to the second floor? And it would keep it within the play feature aesthetic, without the need to add/remove pieces when you want to convert it between base and train car!

Very VERY awesome! Suggestions to a very awesome build: give boss man a walkie talkie piece. I'm not sure if you have pieces spare, to keep things symmetrical, place white hinge pieces on the side that doesn't open (it could suggest that in some instances, it could open the other way or something). It also seems if you shuffle to doors a bit you could hide the grey technique piece. I'm not sure if you ever visit exhibitions with your stuff, but I would suggest even having a loose piece to fit over the middle roof section - then you run the full high-speed train and later, you have it parked in a siding with the middel roof popped off and everything transformed. This is truly one of my favourites of your builds!

Love the new build. My little tea drinker thinks the agent with his tie open should have a red tea mug showing he has had a busy day as he stands next to his sky bike. I was thinking that being a great Ultra Agent they must have huver tech that moves them up and down so no ladder but maybe some platform that slides out from the underside. Just an idea.. thanks for a great video and fantastic build.

Oh, well done Robin! That build turned out beautifully. It will make an excellent addition to BrickNottingham. Could you mount a ladder piece on the outside of the train wagon to access the top in its folded out position? On the back of the car perhaps? It would differentiate it from the other cars, but would solve your access problem without crowding the inside. Tbh, I think you could get away with no access as it’s reminiscent of original Lego builds, and it’s just such a good design.
