"I didn't really like this set, but after changing almost everything, I like it now."

[@Jedi_Bob_Studios]

Lol

[@historyfan0651]

Lol

[@RobinHoodBricks]

Yeah, that's about right, haha!

[@etiennebenson9837]

It has been fantastic watching your progress on The Python over all this time. Every change has been satisfying, but the cumulative effect has been even better! Some of your changes were for style and preference, and others for practicality for it to fit in your city, but they've all been well thought out, sensible and very well implemented. Kudos Robin, you've done it again!

[@RobinHoodBricks]

That's a really nice comment to receive. Yes, a lot of work has gone into it and it has certainly been worth it!

[@BulletNoseBetty]

I would love to be a fly on the wall when Lego's official design team see this video.

[@RobinHoodBricks]

Haha, yes I'd be interested too!

[@armatiotoys]

Modifications that will make your train look as great, professionally and awesome.

[@RobinHoodBricks]

Thank you, my friend!

[@MegaJoker1972]

It a better looking train now. My set is still in the box and after seeing what you done I going to start on my own build.

[@RobinHoodBricks]

It has a lot of potential to go in many different directions thanks to the front being brick built rather than a single big piece!

[@M4RKP1aysGames]

I really love your creations of custom Legos well done!❤❤🎉🎉

[@RobinHoodBricks]

Thanks very much. I've got hundreds of videos to enjoy!

[@BinkBricks]

These upgrades have made it a thousand times better. Love it Robin, a total success!

[@RobinHoodBricks]

A thousand thanks!

[@gaelgonzalez2193]

The benefit of the jacob's bogey is that when the train car derails off the tracks it prevents it from jackknifing the entire train.👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@RobinHoodBricks]

That should also be true of the LEGO version. Sweet!

[@badam2251]

You done so many modifications on this train you can basically say it your whole design

[@RobinHoodBricks]

Agreed, there's not a lot of the original there anymore, haha!

[@Baconbs718]

The locomotive and driving trailer look more identical to each other than before

[@RobinHoodBricks]

I'm a big fan of symmetry!

[@BrooksBricks]

You've taken a decent looking bullet train model and made it into a spectacular build all around. Super awesome Job, Robin!

[@datguymiller]

I've mentioned this before, if there's a jaycobs bogie on one end it's on the other end, yeah on trainsets with jaycob bogies it's the bogies that connects them to the locos, the added weight increases adhesion to the rails along with smoothing the ride greatly (big railfan here)

[@audiotron1003]

Looks much better now. You could make it even longer in time

[@RobinHoodBricks]

Ugh, and I thought I was done buying those glass pieces, haha!

[@MamasBricks]

What a fantastic train you made of it!!!

[@justaddbricks5527]

Look great all finished, love the 4 double decker passengers cars, they all look awesome. I now don't really mind the florescent lime green, it doesn't look that bad.

[@RobinHoodBricks]

Me too. I have reduced the lime area on each end by about four studs. It's now more of an accent colour than a main colour, which is good!

[@deadblueadventures9940]

I like the set before but know the extra has come makes it cooler I think lego wants you

[@RobinHoodBricks]

Very kind of you to say!

[@paulsbricks]

This build looks great. Now I have to buy a second set.😀👍

[@RobinHoodBricks]

Definitely. Apologies to your wallet!

[@ezraadrian4666]

can't wait for him to add another original/single-decker car for slightly longer

[@Slavador2393]

excellent modifications Robin! the train looks really good now.

[@RobinHoodBricks]

Yes, I love it now. Much better!

[@themiffer6997]

Looking super Robin !!! Love your attention to the details ❣️

Love the train upgrades as usual!

[@kaiperdaens7670]

i would add seats in the level section just to make it a bit more realistic(in the double-deck cars from all the trains)

[@RobinHoodBricks]

Yes, so no space is wasted!

[@Goji_15]

You should place that "electric wire" that is on the on/off button on the other side as well.

[@dorothymctee5626]

Amazing as always

[@TrainsForNSWVlogs]

Maybe you should replace the grilles on the side of the cab car with 1x4 tiles in black as there will be no equipment in it. Will you also add Jacobs Bogies to the locomotive? And will you add a polarity switch to the locomotive so it wont go in reverse.

[@RobinHoodBricks]

I don't think I need a polarity switch. This is all on one motor!

[@dennisbomhof]

And a wonderfull green serpent it is!

[@RobinHoodBricks]

Yay. Much appreciated!

[@TheMagmaKnigh]

You should have added the Jacobs Bogie between the rear cab and one of the other pairs leaving the possibility for the railroad to add more in the middle

[@annefarrow1956]

Very nice!

[@RobinHoodBricks]

Cheers!

[@BlockHeadUK]

A fine job now all that your amendments are done 👍🏻

[@RobinHoodBricks]

Yes, I'm much happier with it now but it was quite a project!

[@Zabadak]

Very nice modifications have you doing there on this train. And the ride of a new train is always very exciting. Because of the tight fit in your City. 👁👁👍👍

[@ChristianGregersJørgensen]

I have a similar design for the 60051 train; 4 passengers and 2 cabs, though I had to buy 2 sets, to have a motor in each end - much better traction and longer battery life

[@RobinHoodBricks]

I've done the same on my cargo train, 6 motors, 4 battery boxes, but one motor seems enough here. Also the rechargeable battery boxes are great for consistent power!

[@Erikve]

You elevated this set from a very poor shaped train to an absolute awesome looking train.

[@orientalmoons]

I hope the air conditioning is working well in the double decker coaches otherwise the poor minifigs will bake (even in a British summer 😂).

[@RobinHoodBricks]

Fortunately they're plastic and don't feel the heat, haha!

[@puppetguy8726]

I would write 'plastic lives matter', but I think that might be in poor taste

[@realcrazypotato]

You should make a big red E-Stop for to stop all your motorized builds!

[@RobinHoodBricks]

Haha, that would be funny!

[@realcrazypotato]

@@RobinHoodBricks you could even add some spiderwebs or something to show that you never use it

[@supercar-junction]

Great video keep it up first one

[@ivodepievo9481]

Mr.Hood, congrats on the changes you have made, it looks stellar! One suggestion tho.. In my opinion the loc and the back car need to have a lime green logo instead of the black logo they have now.. Minor detail but it’s all in the details as you have mentioned before 😃

[@RobinHoodBricks]

I think the tile needs to be black, for the arrow shape. If you mean the lines of the logo, maybe lime would be better but I've no way of making that!

[@ivodepievo9481]

@@RobinHoodBricks it is your python 🐍 👍 and I love it! But I do think they should be the same color on every wagon of the train, including the front and the back.. maybe there is an other way to do that? Anyone else any ideas? Have a great weekend!

[@TheArchavian]

Suggestion: Replace the gray tiles with black on the dining car to match the black area on the cab.

[@RobinHoodBricks]

Hmm I'm not sure I like that idea!

[@bricks_and_cities]

The Python is definitely one of the best trains on the channel.

[@jamieurquhart240]

Hi Robin, not sure if anyone said it but on the buffet car I would change the grey tiles on top of windows to Black so that from the outside it blends in with the arrow and as such matches the cab car, awesome content as always.

[@RobinHoodBricks]

Thank you. Yes, it's difficult to decide if the window bit should match the locomotive or the carriages!

[@jamieurquhart240]

@@RobinHoodBricks true I get it as it’s a carriage but I was thinking mirroring of the locomotive was nicer 🤣

[@Baconbs718]

I think on the driving trailer you such just the smaller bogies so that locomotive look likes it has driven bogies and driving trailer non driven bogies like my teyvat class 137. The driving trailer and coaches have the bogies to each other and power car has bigger bogies for the traction motors

[@RobinHoodBricks]

Easily done if you wanted to do that!

[@Dreadnought_1]

Maybe use Jacob bogey design on your flight train

[@RobinHoodBricks]

I've considered this due to the huge stresses on the cargo train. I may have to end up doing it!

[@7bittedie9]

7:08 have you tried to do it all in white? I think this would look better than all in grey

[@RobinHoodBricks]

I don't have that much white. Love the profile pic!

[@dylanwhite3383]

Your passenger train is nice and for my birthday this year on February 10th i bought myself a passenger train set and did a little custom job were the train looks like it runs off of solar panels instead of the overhead wires

[@RobinHoodBricks]

Let's hope it's sunny so it can get up to full speed!

[@dylanwhite3383]

​@@RobinHoodBricksyep i use it for both passenger and freight trains until i get another locomotive

[@MayoHosko]

Going back to that stripe badoing I think the stripe would be better if it’s all white instead of all grey

[@RobinHoodBricks]

I don't have that much white!

[@matthewpotter8491]

Not that the old city passenger train was bad but I like this one so much better. Reminds me of a bullet train with the nose shaping. Defo need a couple of then as I think one on it’s own looks a little odd.

[@RobinHoodBricks]

A couple to make it double ended our a whole second train? I don't think I'll be buying any more!

[@barrydavies2922]

Your need to have the red lights at the back work. I do like the train as a hole but I have the same train and don’t like the brick built loco front . I have no see the front of the 60051 and was disappointed in Lego with not coming up with a lime green one . I have made a few double decker carriages myself after watching your videos but think your ones are a lot better. Thanks for your videos love them especially the train building ones. Have a great day from Australia!

[@gabricks1224]

Do you think if you decide to get the lego 60198 and 60336 cargo trains could you do a tutorial on adding power functions to them like you did with lego 60197 and 60337 if some people don’t want to use power up, I’d love to see that

[@Agarricus]

If you switched that dark green tile to light grey/dark blueish grey it would fit in even better with the pantograph, whilst still being visible

[@RobinHoodBricks]

Yes, but green for Go, right!

[@buddylee6996]

Man Robin you sure can make a not so good looking train into something I must get for my city. Great job on all of the amendments. It definitely gives it the pizzazz it deserves. Great video my friend, keep up the amazing work.

[@RobinHoodBricks]

Hey thanks. It was quite a bad train to start with so it did need a lot of work to get here!

[@rbleisem]

Robin, it needs one wagon more, to really look good. Now it looks a bit too short. Will you look into adding a second engine or would that take too much wire? Because it would also let you light the tail lights as well, if you go that route.

[@RobinHoodBricks]

Yeah, too much wire for not much benefit. It doesn't really need a second motor. Back lights would be great but it's a lot for that small detail!

[@rbleisem]

@@RobinHoodBricks So something for if instead of one extra wagon, you add, say, three to five, more? But then she gets a bit too big for your station, I recon. Also waaay more wires. As for your selling points in the trains, have you considered using those car doors? Put the fix-in-place stuff on the turning joint location and... Only need to place the storage racks to the side, so folks can pass by. Which would also solve that dept problem with that one car. Might even solve some problems with some of your other trains, their eating wagons. Say, will you re-up the engines on your freighttrain? Maybe add a few extra locomotives? Do think that you should place the loco's, that can be placed back to back, together, as a unit. Bonus if you can join that two into that freight logo color code, that you have a couple of tiles, off. Do look up the older lego steam trains with a engine, see if you can grap their drive beam side setup or not. If you can, think Garrett or Mallet or perhaps both. Do look up wind energy, you have today, three or four different setups, the standaard windmill, a vertical blade one, a horizontal blade one (that could fit on a roof top or edge), and a vibration one. Could maybe be a adition to your @sweat building? Trains generate wind, for one. Now I know you ain't going to create a train layout that is basically on first floor or rooftop, level. But if placed in the right corner, it could show off a nice former train/metro track, that is now a urban park or so. Unless you want to give your Batman, a hidout for his transport options. So, where are all the roof gardens? Have you seen the Shuri's Sunbird 76211 set, yet? Some fun part, there, like a light blue see true window version of the ones you used on this train or that part you used for you undersea-base, it's moon-pool (2X). Why don't you check it, to see if there is anything you like? Because some of the structual work might I think, work quite well for some train locomotive setup for engine cover to cabin, transfer. Say Robin, a question, where is the old city gate (and wall) of the old inner city of the town? Might be the place a big red door, on it's side, could be used as a outer defence shutter like door, with a metal grill plate behind it, for extra frustration and kill-box effect, before the more normal doors are put in place. Yes, see if you can add that Ninjago Temple Door to your Brick Nothing(?)Ham Castle. Bonus if the Forrestmen can be seen stealing the Ham, again. Bit of a shame you can't use some of the newer Castle set to create a inner city castle wall or so. Near the monorail station in the harbour section and the Bounty, might be a potential location, when you think about it. Find a few other locations and.... Will you go for the Lego ideas Smithy, by change? Both sides need a place to get new weapons, from. Say, would my brickling gallery have some ideas for you to use? Even if you have to modify some of them, that is. Anyway, till the next time. www.bricklink.com/v3/studio/public_gallery.page?idUser=1281396

[@gabricks1224]

do you think maybe you can add some dark or light gray 1x1 circle tiles or stud to the doors to make them as door knobs, because it looks kind of like there's something missing on the doors

[@Baconbs718]

Check out my Subway. That train is a multiple unit I think!

[@Baconbs718]

@@RobinHoodBricks but the subway is a electric multiple unit

[@smellyam]

Have you thought about raising the pantographs? I don't know if they're higher than the upper deck of the passenger cars? If they aren't they might get in the way of the power cables!

[@RobinHoodBricks]

They're about level. Any higher and they'll hit the station overpass!

[@STGsshorts22]

You sould make a second jacobs bogie for the cab car?

[@RobinHoodBricks]

I could do two more, but some trains have this format and I ran out of pretty much all the bits for them as well!

[@gabricks1224]

How’d you make the lights come on as soon as you turned on the battery box, because normally you would have to turn the speed controller to turn on the lights when it’s on the receiver

[@RobinHoodBricks]

Yes, I have battery with a normal wire next, then the lights AND the IR Receiver added to the wire. The motor is on the other side of the IR Receiver as usual. This method is great for remembering to turn off your trains if you forget like me!

@@RobinHoodBricks ah now I get it

[@xfilethe]

Hi robin looking good ... Deff better now although on reflection I have 1 thing.... I noticed it when you put in that Buffy section and now I can't un see it 😂 😂😂 It's the fact the figs can't see out of the the windows while standing 😂😂😂 And if you reverse the black bricks above the window to the bottom it also raises them to the same hight of the doors ... You could leve the ones on level +1 and -1 because it's not as obvious there or just raise them in the buffet section.... The other thing what sort of gripes me is that grill in the buffet car.... You said you placed it more forward but why just not replace more of the grill for Windows ?? It's not like you need it... And you can can ceep the arrow but like you said using the dark windows in place of that stripe..... That's just a few things I noticed..... Have fun building and see you soon

[@007-q6v6p]

Why do you use the one thing between the two carrages and nit like ut was?

Hi I like to train changes I thought maybe a small black on and off button instead of green to blend it in more cheers James

[@RobinHoodBricks]

Yeah, that would make it blend in more!

[@allenforbes8108]

The White line you had changed back to grey should be broken up by either a black or green plate, as if denoting a sign, because the window has a handicapped sign. It would be load or wait, or see these instructions sign.

[@sambrown6426]

Train motors in general sometimes get a bad rep with the custom Lego train community because "they don't have any power." In truth, they have plenty of power at high speed, but very little at low speed. This means that while yes, they are underpowered for a slow-moving freight train, they're often perfectly adequate for a high-speed passenger train. And if you can squeeze their massive bulk under the tender of a streamlined passenger steamer, you should be good to go for high-speed service on any layout, especially large ones with wide curves and shallow grades.

[@corneedeleeuw]

Thanks for the b-doing

[@RobinHoodBricks]

You're welcome!

[@Real_Moon-Moon]

This is amazing! I’m absolutely chuffed to bits! (I think that’s correct British?) Also, some trains have it where the driver can only move to the back via the side doors, so they have to wait until the train stops at a station.

[@puppetguy8726]

I don't think the driver is allowed to go anywhere while he's driving the train 😜

[@Real_Moon-Moon]

@@puppetguy8726 True, I was mostly talking about the rear attendant, sometimes I think they are called the guard.

@@RobinHoodBricks Alright! How are you and Mrs. Hood?

[@prokesuk]

I recently watched a review of the 75955 Hogwarts' Express, a set I own but have never built. When showing the passenger carriage something bothered me about it. It was the sticker in the center that really made me notice the lack of detail. The whole carriage just looked flat and boring. I believe that I now notice this after watching your train builds and the attention to detail. I imagine that you would have recessed the sticker or framed it in some way. It's your attention to details that really make your channel interesting.

I dreamt you did a video with a face reveal, although I don't remember what you looked like in the dream

[@Mrknowledgetogo]

Regarding the white stripe....why not changing it into something more poppy like red or yellow for indicating the location of first or business class on the train. Love your result anyway!

[@chrischristiansen6204]

I really dig the lime wedge plate giving that slice of color. Just imagine the buffet shelves as being able to swing up or to the side for egress. I like the little green switch indicator. Maybe on the back engine it could have a red one. What speed do you typically run the trains at? Full speed seems too fast to me personally, and it looks like it would be tough to catch much detail if they are going too fast.

[@chrischristiansen6204]

Just had a thought from seeing the side of the blue bridge. We may be able to do a swallow in its nest with something like a lamp holder piece with a cheese wedge on one side and a bird on the other. There might be better pieces to make that work though.
