When I was younger, I wanted to build a city like this. This is pure gold!

[@schwarzerritter5724]

Do it now.

[@Vil3mos]

Wake up samurai, we have a city to build

[@biman1422]

Your future goals like me

[@omniscientbeing4224]

god know I had the legos to do it growing up, but the city would have been white, blue, red, yellow. plus we didn't have to many intricate legos.

[@NoName_NoTitle]

I had to combine a bunch of different toys and use my imagination to make a city

[@mems1895]

Also add a railway stopper so then cars can’t go when the train is coming

[@Highclearmedia]

In America we call them gates

[@raidengray4819]

Do we? I just call them weird looking drawbridges

[@sheklamaletie3813]

I haven't seen them

[@thejerseyrailroader28]

Is this based off of a different country or US?

[@mems1895]

I can’t wait to see more episodes! Your editing is so simple but professional!

[@redo3390]

i agree

[@Isaiah.C]

agreed

[@ironagent45]

Yeah his videos are like really simply edited and not over top but in a way that you can tell a lot of thought has been put into it.

Yep KZbin recommendations worked and got me to the first one and now I’m hooked

I can’t wait until you start the buildings they are going to look sick

[@LionBricks]

Next update!

[@joeh8352]

I like how lionbricks is building a smaller lego city than usual so that everybody can take inspiration from it. He just proves that a small city can look spectacular.

[@Roderic1980]

Supercool!! …but you need to buy yourself a nailcutter as wel

@Isaac Eow yeah lol me too

[@sheevpalpatine2418]

In 40 Episodes this city's gonna be famous

[@gavinslatter]

I’m loving the new style of the videos, nice calm music with the timelapse, It’s fantastic content.

[@finalfursonavii8635]

gotta say, i love that you add those extra details like potholes and the railway spikes and things, that makes it so much better to me

[@Nikioko]

For the younger of you: 35 years ago, Lego had a railway system with remotely controlled gates, signals and switches. And trains with lights. Can you imagine that?

[@laxsjo.]

I actually have a bunch of sets from that line. I'm not old enough to have those from my childhood, just a nerd who really likes classic lego for some reason. Although I have to say that I was quite let down when I finnaly got my first sets. The trains really don't run very well, they constantly lose connection with the power line in the middle. Even tried cleaning them with alcohol. Maybe they ran better when they were new. Although I still wish lego would add some more electronic parts to their lego system, so that we finnally can have proper functioning signals and crossings!

[@barney3444]

Only started watching you recently and I am very impressed with your building skill and attention to detail, great vid

I really love the drains and the overgrowth of plants along the rails!

[@Ezz652]

are you going to build an overhead wire for the trains? that would be cool i think

[@LionBricks]

I plan to add a monorail

[@neon112]

@@LionBricks What about crossing gates and lights? Will that come in the future?

[@louiegarcia4084]

Are you pilipino

[@LionBricks]

@@neon112 I’ve already built them for the next update :)

[@rabbitsteew]

as a kid who used to play with legos, it stresses me out to see you use so many smooth pieces as i always saw those as the "valuable" pieces

[@CALgal387]

Very true about the color of the translucent pieces for the street lamps! I always put yellow ones 🤣🤣

[@ivobo6227]

There is something so satisfactory in building with tiles and slopes removing any studs from your build. It could be anything from a random wall to a gigantic building, I could spend hours doing this in a zen like state.

[@user-ec4cp3gy3e]

This series momentarily cures my depression. It looks so good!

[@LionBricks]

A pleasure!

[@Larryboy101]

I absolutely love the pot hole. It’s the little details that make this so much better

[@axelklingenborg4242]

Just hearing someone be this passionate about something is enough to put a smile on anyones face.

[@mattqueen0538]

Cant wait to see some Buildings coming along and to have some light up bricks to really bring out that realism!

[@TrayStat]

Yes. An upload from the lord. Lion Bricks XD

[@pyjamapunk1575]

Let’s go!

[@TrayStat]

@@pyjamapunk1575 Hell yeah

[@jlz727.10]

This is the moment I've been waiting for

[@aidenkoenig5379]

Go to 8:00 and look to middle and a little to the left It looks amazing, but that one single plate is turned, my ocd is killing me, good job tho.

[@TypicalBricks174]

Well Great Britain’s national animal is a lion and he’s from the uk and the uk did once rule a quarter of the world so calling him the lord makes sense

[@edenpeanut]

Looks beautyful. Nice filming technique and choice of music! Fits well together.

[@MatteBlack101]

I can't wait on how this city will turn out at the end

[@williamthehuman6779]

2:12 love this. Like dopamine for my eyes.

[@joshmartin152]

When railways in Britain First started off they used to coat the wooden sleeper/ties in tar to help preserve them so they had a blackish look to them.

[@christophernewman8741]

The coating is called creosote.

[@christophernewman8741]

The modern black railroad cross ties are recycled plastic. They are estimated to have a life span of 50 years each and are made from plastic recovered from landfills and recycling centers.

[@sockshandle]

@@christophernewman8741 not too sure but I think wooden ties may have a longer service life then (the railroad in my area is a freight railroad and as far as I know the ties are there for a LONG time before being replaced

[@marcelburdon9795]

People were asking about the elevated tracks? I thought they looked stellar from the start! What I’m less certain about are the cheese slopes, they don’t look that good in my opinion... The detailing on the tracks is amazing though! Can’t wait to see the city grow and develop, looking forward to the next video!

[@cyberneticwarmachine]

Wow didn't expect you address the elevation remark from the previous video. Very friendly response. Even if I'm not an afol. Your type of video are still enjoying to watch. Inner child loves it. Custom city was the dream!!

[@johnswingler1003]

I’d love to see you do a English village with lots of houses and a big forest back drop maybe a pub cafe shop and post office a small school and things like that a bit like emerdale

[@fatboy2867]

How much effort can one put into a railway.. I would just put the molded piece and probably call it quits. The amount of detail blew my mind!

[@akittenplays4104]

So glad I found this series! You're making me want to buy some legos again and make something cool!

[@SUSHOsobaka]

This man fulfilling my childhood dream, love the city. :)

[@leoschwab9669]

This is way better than all the try not to get satisfied videos! Your voice, the background music, and of course the act of building the city! Probs to you!

[@liammajka9146]

Wow. Can’t wait to see the finished product.

[@sambeaumont395]

Personal thought here - but you have the street lights alternate sides along the road - all good, but you also have the street lights on opposite sides of the road when coming up to the railway crossing (eg visible @ 12:23). Pretty sure lights should be on the driving side of the road immediately before the crossing.

[@sypialnia_studio]

It takes so many bricks to build a lego city... but it's a delight to look at your process!

[@NeoSephirothVal]

No train ever can drive over these railway crossings.^^ All Lego Train Motors will get stuck on those black 1x1 2/3 slopes.... And yes, I have tested that! If you place them just one plate deeper it would work out fine for Lego Train Motors.

[@LionBricks]

Well there won’t be running trains anyway

[@helenthorne3014]

This is my favourite series I have ever watched, I love the vibe of the videos and your building style, I honestly can't wait to see how it ends up

[@kszysztofmaziarz6357]

Man I've been watching since the old city and OMG I love the new editing and building style, it just shows how much you've improved over the past few years.

[@puggers460]

i have been waiting for this for so long i love how this guy methodically builds and how chilled out he is.

[@dewolf7436]

You should build short tunnel exits one each side of the train track, one says entering ''name of choise'' and the other another name, that would be cool in my opinion. LOVE the way you build!!!! But just an idea for you😄

[@measleyyy]

I watched the first part yesterday and was about to look at the second one but realised it isn’t even out yet. Good thing it’s here now

[@susylima4177]

I Love how the City is getting form 👍😀

[@lachlannunn8999]

You put so much effort into realism and just your builds in general I always look forward to new updates because these videos make me want to become a better builder. Thanks heaps, see you in the next one!

[@jakobrichnavsky]

The street lights reminded me of a alien movie scene so if you could (which could probably) make a UFO that would be awesome!

[@acimagination7982]

among the little details you added in the train track area, i like that you added those lego weeds.

[@BrickTownTV]

Finally a new Episode. I‘m so excited .👍

[@wakaichikara6222]

It's 3 am IDC nothing will stop me from watching this

[@jplau]

Man, your eyes for details are insane. The black gives a very good contrast. I like that.

[@epicproportionsmediaproduc6697]

The pot holes are a really nice touch! 👌

[@Henrikipotela]

That gravel! 👌👌👌

[@9jason]

Just found your two episodes, and I love it so far! Can't wait for the upcoming episodes. You have earned my subscription.

[@davidstrachan734]

great idea, creating potholes!

[@VentusTheSox]

Hehe. As a Railway engineer irl, hearing you call it gravel is just funny. Its called ballast. And something to note, the distance between 2 sets of rails is meant to be about 1.5x as large as the distance between rails in one track. We call the distance between two rails the 4 foot (not refering to 4 feet specifically because its about 4.5ft long) and the distance between two sets of track the 6 foot (Again its not actually 6feet but close). Your 6foot is actually smaller than the 4foots of the lego railway, but cool build anyway.

[@hayden5581]

was in my recommended. calming and brings back memories

[@georgehenry7531]

This is fantastic! Popped up in my recommendeds so I watched part 1 and then this, but I love the style of editing and the build is incredible! Can’t wait to see where this goes :D

[@The_Serious_Chicken]

This appeared in my recommendations so I clicked it and found new ways and neat tricks to make the road seem “alive” and seeing how good you can make the railroad is just incredible so I had to subscribe to see how the city develops

[@mpb6118]

This series is what I have been looking for, absolutely brilliant!

[@cheriegilbert2563]

I think this is going to be the best city ever

[@Red_Steampunker]

I’m at Idaho on a trip, the tracks rail ties aren’t black here. they are a light gray, but due to snow they get darker because of snow. There’s also a bridge close by too, the bridge uses wood rail ties instead of concrete. we walked along it and the rails are a dark gray, but the tops are worn so they are a shiny gray. there were quite a lot of old rail spikes near the tracks.

[@thetoasterisonfire2080]

It would be cool if you put real lights in the street lights and stuff, some smd leds would probably work well

[@trainsandtrams2020]

I like the tiling on the level crossing and the ballasting method you have chosen for decorating the tracks.

[@aty-growtopia531]

Wow!! Amazing

[@aty-growtopia531]

Thank you

[@cloudybricks]

yeaahhhh! Another city update video! Very nice idea to add those lamp posts in the city 😀

[@gamertagnot_found]

You are so good at building with legos!

[@Ben-----]

Dude, this is borderline asmr...and I love it...

[@sigmachadvince9269]

Im starting to like this series. You add a smooth montage music that keeps us calm and I like the narrating you do its pretty cool

[@idkanimate7455]

A tip for the track pieces you dont have to do this but if you modify just a few pieces to make them look nice against the border(cut them or add to them)

[@robinl.7948]

so the saga continues... Great video mate
