Cargo Wagons

25 comments
So, my idea is to produce a set of Lego Cargo wagons. so sit back while i fully explain the idea.

Currently, as it stands, I believe there are two kinds of Lego enthusiasts for the train theme. Children who will want to play with the sets and more adult fans who are more than happy watching it go around the track. This said, both groups have a similar problem, that is it's difficult to expand the cargo trains to include additional waggons.

While some adults will start to design and build their own wagons, most people will be forced into two options. Purchasing a second cargo train. not the most cost-effective solution as the motors and control unit make this prohibitively expensive on pocket money. The other option is to purchase the wagons from resellers who split the sets up to sell the individual components this can lead to purchasing incomplete or damaged sets.

So my solution is to produce a separate model of wagons on their own with no expensive electronics. Hopefully, without the electronics, the train wagons can be produced at a more cost-effective and closer to pocket money level. For my submission, all five would come as one set.

I have tried to create a balance of wagons which both look good from an adult point of view as well as provide the vital “Swoshable” factor for younger people..I have also tried to make it so they would not look out of place if there were multiple of each wagon making up the train.
