Tolga's Railroad Repository

FEC ES44C4s roll by on my proto-freelance South Florida layout at Gold Coast Railroad Museum. After several months I am happy to say LEGO building on my end is expected to pick up. Keep in mind I will use only the parts I have on hand and do not plan to go out in the wild looking for parts. The following projects can be anticipated for the months leading up to the holidays, and future changeovers for my on loan display at Gold Coast Railroad Museum . (and very important contributions to the GFLUG NMRA 2017 display in Orlando, FL) List likely incomplete and subject to change. Town - all the exciting builds Pasión del Cielo Modular Building retrofit (2015) Pasión del Cielo Coffee Reboot The modular building that was built in 2013 was fitted with a PDC on the ground floor, but lost sections in the process (they went missing/dismantled). Thus, a decision was made to scrap the building altogether. The details were salvaged and belong on a standalone, which will likely sit ins...

The return of the academic year for me means the Holiday season is fast approaching. At this point in the year it is not too early, rather just right to begin conceiving how the annual Holiday display I do shall look this year. Past photos of the mostly suburban layout available here: https://www.flickr.com/photos/brickbuilder711/sets/72157637527799965/ This list of projects for the Fall-Winter is not limited to what's going under the tree but does set up well for that layout: Promenade resort and night club. The big centerpiece for the holiday display will be a beach resort with an outdoor version of a nightclub, probably similar in essence to LIV Miami. It will join a strip of a marina on the left side, hotel in the center, and lead to a beach on the right. The beach could be parallel to a double track section of LEGO track that turns around at the end. Similar in essence to Escambia Bay, FL or even stretches of the Pacific Surfliner. I even anticipate installing state of...

I have been a YouTuber for 5 and a half years and have been through the peak of the site... and now the trough of it. They rolled out a new design early this month and it is.... terrible. Not to mention a big middle finger to the contributors and partners  like ME. A Look Back at Previous Channels In case it is not known, my channel is focused on a hodgepodge of videos of transportation and scale models built with LEGO bricks and the like. I achieved partnership in 2010 so many of these screencaps lack the perks but show the drive that I had to become one... I did, but that's when things turned southward. The first design I caught up with had MANY, MANY features. I wasn't a partner then but was to some extent up and coming. Note: hobbies and media (I was in adolescence at the time, which is why I was quite expressive), being a "Director" (Wait, what's that now?), etc... and more in the subsequent screenies.  This my friends is how YouTube became popular. ...
