LEGO 12V train layout #15 (part 2): 7730, 7740, 7745, 7750
After a VERY long break from layouts, I've finally made Layout 15! This one is a standard outer track with 2 passing lines, and I built a big switchyard with 4 stub end sidings - 2 with decouplers and 2 with signals. It includes sets 7823, 7824, 7850 x5, 7854 x5, 7856, 7858 x3, 7859 x4, 7860 x4, 7861, 7862 x2, 7863, 7864 x2, 7866, and 7867. The trains running in this video are 7730, 7740, 7745, and 7750 plus the wagon 7815. I'll be releasing a night scenes video and a shunting video soon!

    I bought the locomotive in Germany from a private sales exchange in the "Kleinanzeigen" for 70 euros without the motor and with the booklet 7777 when a collection was being cleared out. Unfortunately, I discovered that all the windows were red and had simply been painted over with black paint! Well, the supposed bargain was no longer a bargain! I then had to buy the missing windows + 30 euros extra. In total, I paid 100 euros.

    Very nice, why do you have two controllers, is one just for powering the points, lights etc and the other the actual trains? I notice one does not have the dial to regulate the track current and train speed so assume you are using one just to control the trains and the other for the tyrack accessories etc? Look forward to some more details in future videos and narative on why you like this.

    I have no memory of this set, so I think I must've lost interest in the train sets just as it came out! I definitely remember the earlier set you showed, although I never had it. I can't really criticise anything about this set, but I definitely prefer the look of the earlier one. I don't know if that's because of vague nostalgia, a feeling that the earlier set looks like it gives you more "stuff", or its similarity to train stations that I was aware of as a kid!

    Wow $1300 is a big purchase but if it is sealed and brand new its a good investment but a bit pricey IMHO so personally I would part it out on Bricklink and select US sellers and see if you can get the parts you need to built it, I have done this for a few items that are super rare or difficult to find or just really expensive. Excited for the layout 15 🙂

    Can’t wait to see layout 15. I also wanted to ask you a question as if I remember correctly you had a brand new unused sticker sheet for 7760. Are those hazard stickers on prism holders from it or you salvaged the one that were applied to 1x4 bricks and 1x2 modified bricks that you’ve bought along with other parts with stickers?

    • @Reker1million
      @Reker1million 7 днів тому

      Hi! Great question - I have kept the new sticker sheet untouched. The danger stickers on the light prisms are salvaged from other parts, some from 7720 (same danger stickers). I had to cut some to size them correctly for the headlight bricks.

    • @ayytrezex
      @ayytrezex 7 днів тому

      Nice to know that you’ve kept the sticker sheet untouched. Btw I also wanted to ask about stickers on 7727 doors. Did you replaced NS stickers with DB stickers or you bought extra doors with DB stickers on them and swapped them with ones that have NS stickers on them?

    Awesome! Looking forward to the layout 15. About 1k special obviously it's up to you, but personally I think that doing a live stream of building a lego 12v set and interacting with fans while doing so would make it much better. Getting sealed 7735 seems like a good idea, though it's so expensive that I think getting a copy of that set used in good condition is better option.

    • @Reker1million

  • @pastajensen

    The 7735 is great train (and was my gateway to 12v) but it's not worth 1300$ even if it's sealed. Yea, it would be cool to be the one to open it, but when that's done it's not so special anymore. Do a live build and maybe at the same time a QnA as mentioned by @Theultimatefan783 .
