Cool Lego Trains

Looks cool...only 630 pieces?

Yup, 630, but there is only the loco and one carriage plus 8 pieces of track

I've finished building it, quite impressive looking actually. In some ways Lego could learn a few lessons from Aussini, they seem to mostly give you the flat plates, so that most of the 'pegs' on the bricks are covered giving a far more professional finish.

I actually wish Ausini stuck to diesels and electric trains, because the steam ones are totally ruined by not having corresponding wheels nor coupling rods. Yes, LEGO's 9V My Own Train line also had steamers with bogies, but that doesn't mean it should be replicated.

I know what you mean, but at the same time you have to look at the price they are selling at, they are way cheaper than the lego equivalents, besides all it would take to 'fix' the problem would be to source some alternative wheels and some technic beams and pegs
