"Your attention please, we have been informed of a technical incident on the tracks. An intervention team is working on it in order to reduce the waiting time as Quick as possible. Thank you for your understanding."
With maintenance train, its integrated cherry picker and all the tools available, the maintenance team can easily do any technical intervention anywhere in order to fix all types of technical problem on the whole train network.
I created this set because the maintenance of the railway network is not expanded in the world of LEGO.
I started to realize a signaling gantry trying to get closer to reality. Then, when i looked at it, i was satisfied but i found it was looking empty and sad. That's why i decided to build a maintenance train car with its cherry picker in order to access to the rudest places. This is how i created this set.
I think this set is realistic and show the rail workers daily lifes that we do not imagine.
This set is constitued from :
- A signaling gantry on a 38,2 cm x 38,2 cm lego plateform.
- A locomotive maintenance with it's cherry picker.
- 3 railway network workers.
Please note that the cherry picker and the structure around it is removable to facilitate the access for the railway workers.
This set is composed of a signaling gantry and a maintenance train. I wanted to make the scene as real as possible Lots of details such as the cherry picker, différent tools and the full team of workers (included the one on a lunch break). Please have a look a the maintenance team...enjoy !
