Приєднався 10 тра 2020
MonoTownTV is the official television station of a post apocalyptic city built with LEGO bricks.
MonoTown continues to thrive despite rising seal levels that threaten its existence. In the past as climate change continued unabated, coastal cities like MonoTown had a choice - they could either abandon their communities to the rising oceans, or fight back! While many cities did succumb to the rising tides, MonoTown chose to construct a massive sea wall (more than 100 feet high) to protect its citizens and way of life. Parts of the city had to be rebuilt, land became more scarce, and transport, commerce, culture, and even daily life were all affected.
MonoTownTV chronicles life in MonoTown, but also LEGO set builds, LEGO MOCs from other themes like Ninjago, LEGO Friends, LEGO Ideas, Hidden Side, and Monkie Kid. Pretty much anything LEGO is fair game!

Quick Tour of the Art of the Brick Exhibit in Atlanta Georgia
I was in Atlanta and managed to stop by and tour the incredible "The Art of the Brick" exhibit by Nathan Sawaya, one of the world's best known LEGO artists. I managed to capture a whirlwind tour on my phone and if you're in the Atlanta area (or anywhere The Art of The Brick is being exhibited) I'd highly recommend you stop by!

LEGO Trains Controlled by Twitch Viewers
Переглядів 1,8 тис.3 роки тому
MonoTownTV now has a chatbot that lets my livestream viewers on Twitch control my LEGO trains. Built with TMI.js, Node.js, and NodePoweredUp, this bot runs on a Raspberry Pi 4 and can control any LEGO Powered Up motor via Bluetooth. Twitch viewers can control up to three trains within my LEGO city and see the action happening from a variety of camera angles. 🔴 Check out MonoTownTV Live Right no...
Motorizing a LEGO Tram with Bluetooth and Powered UP (LEGO City Set 60097)
Переглядів 15 тис.3 роки тому
In this stream recap, we motorize one of our LEGO Trams. This particular tram comes from LEGO City Set 60097 which is now discontinued. We convert the tram from its default unpowered state to the latest Bluetooth based LEGO Powered UP motor and receiver. This means we can now control the tram via our phone, the LEGO controller, or a computer! This speed build stream recap shows the process of i...

Custom LEGO Streets with Embedded Tram Track
I've made my own Powered Up version with the same tram but using 1 carriage only and spare bricks
are you still friend with the dutch friend?
Haven't spoken to them in awhile - it was 30 years ago!
do you think he's still alive?
My grandpa has a collection of vintage lego, from the late 60’s to the early 80’s. I have some incomplete but working 12 volt trains. (720 & 7750 with motor but incomplete, 7810 without motor but complete.) I have been slowly piecing them toghether, and i still like them and the 12V system more then my 60052 and 60051.
beautiful job , I find I am very drawn to the trams ! best wishes from Wales-land of tiny trains .
Have you ever had an idea and figured it already exists so you google it and lo and behold someone already made it, usually with a cool video or article attached? I just did that with lego trains wireless charging, then with lego trains carring beer, and then lego trains controlled by twituc streamers, and youre 2/3 of those lol. I wish i had a house, i would definitely be making my train pickup snacks you can pick on your phone, habe it be able to go through every room in my house, and have the audience war over them in the background to get the snacks to me. I really like the idea of audience interactivity and being lazy so a few snacks are always on deck to be carried to you at any time. You haven't posted in a long time, any future plans?
Hey thanks for checking in! We have a MASSIVE amount of stuff we're working on - if you head over to instagram or tiktok you can see some shorter updates, but basically, we've outgrown our LEGO room and moved into a dedicated studio. Stay tuned for a bunch of projects including rebuilding the city, doing wireless charging of trains (yes, working on that), upgrades to be able to control trains and their routes (including RFID detection of cars and locomotives), lighting, and a whole bunch of other cool stuff! I'm hoping to be underway in content production in the next 30-60 days!
the city looks fantastic
thankyou for blessing my eyes with this amazing work
Can you PLEASE tell me how to set this up, even though I don't have a Raspberry Pi 4
it's a lot of custom code! but stay tuned as I'm going to start streaming again soon and we have an entirely blank canvas for a new city build!
OMG, this is AWESOME! Great work, well done! I`m kinda speechless, hehe..
THANK YOU for this video! I have the same story, this was my centerpiece in my childhood city too, from 1986-1992 ❤We`re the same age. I still have it but in pieces, with a few important pieces missing. I counted them today and one base, its wheels and magnet couplings, one red door, one red/black-printed panel and five big- and one small windows are missing. It haven`t been in action/assembled ever since (approx 1992). `This` came up today because I got over a complete set in mint condition(!) for "only" $400 so I consider to but it. This one too have all the stickers to the sheet so they`re not applied, as yours. What do you think, should I buy it? 😁
Thanks for your comment and memories! Amazing what LEGO can provide in terms of nostalgia! If you've got the cash, maybe splash it! :) Good luck!
Can’t imagine what would happen if an angry six year old breaks in
There was a very thorough briefing on what we could/couldn't touch upon entry! 😂
This is really cool! And now the new road plates are an easier way to do it 😊
wow cant own a car lol
You can it’s just….discouraged….😂
lol@@MonoTownTV
I had a 7722. It's still at home in Hong Kong, bit the signal is broken.
You have an awesome city 🎉
What parts do I need to buy to get the tram electrified? Product serial numbers please?
You just need the normal Bluetooth powered up motor and battery
Love the worldbuilding here :)
Thanks for sharing, this is awesome 😀
Great set. Love the classic trains
Can’t wait to get and build it!
have you considered a pedestrian street with trams on it? (Like George st in Sydney australia)
We have! We have a pedestrianized section on the West End of the city, and also on the Northwest part which is part of the historic medieval bit of the city! Will get a video up at some point to show more!
I have one of these in the attic, used it only once at Xmas in the 80’s as I got a Hornby at the same time. Good to see it’s worth something it seems
Great work!
thanks 🙏🏼🔥

This is an awesome project! I wonder if MonoTown could be even more fun with (semi)autonomous trains/vehicles/machines going around town?
Thanks! Yeah, my plan is to incorporate some of that. I hadn't thought about autonomous vehicles, but that could be a fun project!
@@MonoTownTV cool :) Maybe Pybricks could come in handy for the autonomous stuff. Feel free to let us know if you find any features missing for your project!
Just checked out Pybricks and it looks awesome! Would love to collaborate on something. Will definitely check it out for a project.
Haayyyyyyyyyaaaaaaaannnaaà
Chaos mod for LEGO
We've only had a couple of crashes so far! Thankfully, nothing has hit the floor...but speed limits had to be tightened up a little... :)
@@MonoTownTV chaos mod like GTA not related to tech issues
It’s looking super slick. Can we get some overhead line electrification? :-) (BJ-DJ’s)
Hah! Just trying to get the overhead train line built first!
Great work! Your city looks fantastic
Thanks! Still a major work in progress!
IM subbed
Best One
That looks amazing!😮👍
Thanks! Can’t wait to see it used in some new LEGO City videos!
maybe he is Bansky
I hate horror too
sounds like Drum and bass
I acctually work at Lego Land Windsor but keep it virtual for now 👌🏻?
look up Lego Ideas
A little suggestion on your Elevator or "Lift" as we call it here in dear ol' England: If friction is a burden for your lift as it descends down the shaft, try putting a small weight in or on your liftcar. If you chose to motorize your lift and the motor sounds/looks like it is struggling with the added weight, try gearing it down which will be beneficial on the motor; along with adding a more realistic speed to your lift at the same time! Hope this helps!
Nice. I’m not sure exactly when I’ll motorise it but will probably do so at some point.
@@MonoTownTV not a problem! Hope this helps!
Nice station 👍 It’s always nice to see Lego cities with lots of public transportation.
We love public transport in MonoTown!
Nice video!
Thanks! Let us know what you want to see more of!
AAAHHHHH LOOKS TOOO GOOD!!!
Thanks so much! Come hangout on Twitch or in our Discord!
@@MonoTownTV sure will
wow! this is an amazing city! a hidden gem
Im actually building my own tram/monorail because you inspired me. I could of easily built a train line, but a tram/monorail line just looks sooo much better and more professional.!
the monorail looks SOOOOOOO GOOOD!!!! maybe add some smooth transparent (yellow) studs for detail on the lights part ?!!
im also using lattice girders for my monorail!!!
Wow, thanks so much for your kind comments! Glad we're getting more trams and monorails going! I think your idea re: lighting is good, so I'm going to motorize and add in lights to the tram (well, try) and we'll see about lights for the monorail too.
And I'm trying to rebuild mini land at home while it's shut
A noble goal! You should pop in on our Discord and show us your progress!
@@MonoTownTV what abou doing this for Coke zero though
@@GenreFluid hah! good idea. We're planning on a Wine Train as a followup. Will add in some soft drink options as well.
#hirehim I work at Legoland Windsor
Good
Mam oryginał z pudełkami i zasilaczem, po tylu latach, dalej sprawna. Chyba zrobię film
Nice video!
Thanks! Let us know if you have any feedback!
@@MonoTownTV You can maybe turn the corner garage into a hotel.
@@amlego6014 That's a great idea! No hotels so far within the MonoTown city center, so a hotel it shall be! Any thoughts on what we name it?
@@MonoTownTV MT HOTEL or the mono town hotel or something like that maybe🤷♂️ Thanks you like the idea!
@@MonoTownTV Plaza MT🤷♂️
Pretty sick nice job 👍
Thanks so much!
Wow. The streets with tram tracks is looking really nice.
Thanks! Can't wait to see the tram running down them!
