LEGO City Update - Double Decker Bus MOC 🚌🏹
Вставка
- Опубліковано 30 вер 2024
- When I made my first MOC bus a few comments suggested that I added a second deck to make a double decker bus. I didn't want to destroy my new creation so I pledged to make a second version with twice the space, and here it is. I've kept many of the design features of the first version but also added a ton of detail whilst still keeping it fully accurate and accessible!

The new double-decker bus looks great. It goes very well with the other bus. Good work. Oh wait wrooom ..... wrooom ... I hear a motorcycle. New bus in the city Mission accepted for the stunt biker. He has to conquer it :-). Have a nice weekend.
Hahaha. He'll get right onto the new challenge!
when you add minifigures you should make one guy asleep leaning on the person next to them like in the back row possibly
and I love the bus!!
I hope they don't miss their stop!
Hey again. Yeah that sticker on top of sticker idea is nice. That way they match but have different numbers. Realistic.... When u get those stickers, use them on the bottom to match. Not the top... They would look out of place on the top. Great job again Robin. Can't wait for monday
I found a pair that I had saved but temporarily forgotten about. They are slightly bigger but that fits the bigger bus.
Oh, and I put them on the bottom. It looks great!
@@RobinHoodBricks cool. Cant wait to see it on monday
@@RobinHoodBricks your buses are cool.😎👍
I just love it when I see Robin Hood bricks has posted. 😁
Three times a week!
This has to be the biggest coincidence for me: This video came out just as I was building the set 60154! Wowie!
Spooky!
Love the buses, I think it would be cool if you made a bus terminal. Keep up the good work!
I will!
Personally I think it's 1 brick too high. If you lose the red brick layer between first and second level it'll look aesthetically pleasing, because right now it's not proportionate, height to width.
Without that brick layer people's heads will be touching the roof when they're sat down upstairs!
Awesome job Robin! Great double decker bus MOC, I like how you design your MOCs like how a Lego set would be with play features. The stickers you used also look really good. I really can't think of anything I would change with it. I can't wait for the new series of builds, I'm very excited to see what you have in store. Great job and awesome video my friend!
Play features and accessibility are really important to me. Thanks!
This is great thank you for posting this rn a car blew up outside my house and I was freaking out so this will be chilling me out
A car did not blow up in front of your house what 😂😂😂
Uuummm what
It did ur not me so how do u know that it didn’t it did
Woooah, that's crazy!
It. Is. Perfect. 😊 I like that rather than going for as much variation as possible you went with a sort of franchise look this time. It really looks like the two buses were built by the same company. The double decker seems to be the slightly older design where perhaps they were making a single decker and a double decker and the town went for maximum capacity. And the single decker you built before looks like the next generation (what with the curved roof front and more modern display style for the destination) where the company has stopped producing double deckers (as is so often the case these days) so Brick Nottingham only modernised the less frequented lines and kept the older ones going where necessary.
As you can probably tell, this video has again inspired me greatly and I will probably come back to it when I finally have the space to build my town. (At the moment it's looking like we will have a new apartment by February. 😁)
Hopefully you'll have lots of space. Thank you so much!
That came out pretty darn well! Definitely has that look that I think of in terms of a double-decker UK bus! And it does feel like they came from the same "manufacturer" too, just different models. I'd love to see how close that comes under the tram/monorail track! :)
It does fit, although over the rail crossing and under the new, unbuilt extension might be a little cosy, haha!
@@RobinHoodBricks but if it's cozy doesn't that conform exactly to your city rules where everything is really tight together? Haha 😉😄
These "smaller" builds are also very cool. It's nice that you differentiate between hauls, bigger builds and smaller builds. We love it all.
Yes, I agree the mixed approach is a good one!
Love the new bus. It will make a great addition to Bricknottingham. A cool scene on the top level would be either a hobo(tramp) or a couple of floosies fighting.
Floosies, eh? Yes a big scene on the top deck would be cool!
Double decker bus looks great. It’s a good idea for you to do this small builds (not really small but not as big as your other projects) on Fridays and have the series on Monday - which I’m sure a lot are looking forward to. Maybe the community could guess what it is in the comment section 😄
Yes, I think this will be the schedule for the next few weeks. A good mix of stuff!
Great bus Robin.
A suggestion: Is it possible to add a third axel on the back of the double decker bus because the engine would be at the rear and it would be to heavy for one axel to support it just like the bus in the 60154 set.
Still great MOC.
All our real double decker buses have a single wheel axle at the back so that's why I did it that way!
I love this. Apart from the new routemaster which has glass up the stairs, did you consider a solid red wall instead of a clear wall? Would give more advertising room and more revenue for your lego Bus company😁
Yes, but it looked weird being red. This looks a lot better even if less common or realistic!
i would cover up the stairs with the same tiles that you used for the windows but in red and opaque and also make the divider wall at the bottom go to the ceiling
Yes I wondered what was bothering me about the stairs. Normally they'd be hidden from the outside, but then you couldn't see the figs going up. That barrier at the bottom of the stairs is usually floor to ceiling and you could put some advert, timetable or TV screen on it.
I think it's great fun to see the stairs but your idea might be more realistic!
I love public transport. The bus looks great. I wonder what's happening Monday!
We will be manufacturing!
This looks awesome! I was just wondering if the bus with the tourists has someone representing the U.S.?
There's a few from North America. There's a Davy Crockett type, an Inuit, a mohican and a native American. There's also an American on the hotel balcony.
I mainly use the series minifigures as you can see, haha!
An excellent addition to the fleet, certainly fits in nicely with the other one. I look forward to seeing this with some minifigs and placed somewhere in Brick Nottingham. 👍
I'm looking forward to it too.
Yes, I omitted that in the interests of a shorter video but maybe a minute would've been better!
I like how you use the base of your bus Moc as the base for the double decker bus since a lot of double decker buses were made by companies that usually made single decker buses that actually do look pretty similar especially in the UK we're double decker buses are huge
Yes, I wanted them to look very similar but different sizes!
This looks great, one of the best minifig scale doubles I’ve seen. Have you considered building and evolving another one as an ideas set submission?
I'm not sure it's different enough for Ideas but thank you for the suggestion!
Double the bus, double the fun. Great moc, Robin. I like the development on top of the single-decker from before. Adds authenticity. Looking forward to the addition of amusing scenes therein. Cheers Robin! 🚍👍🏻
Yes, some rowdy behaviour, no doubt!
Amazing moc👍👍👍👍
Thanks, my friend!
I wanted to suggest you the LEGO city set safari off roader.
Yes, it's very cool isn't it. I may add it to my roads!
That looks well cool Robin. Love the stair design, great use of bricks in a tight, awkward space. Love the fact its 'modular' aswell, very playable, exactly as Lego should be! The design of it and the way both single decker and double decker buses look similar is great. Lovely build, well done Robin 👏👏
Thank you, Jon. I can't wait to see it on my streets!
That was really a nice double decker bus. Wow, it's really cool... 👍😎😍
Glad you approve!
Such a clever design to include the removable top deck. I wonder what it would look like as a triple decker in purple. 🤣🤣
Well the Knight Bus definitely wouldn't fit under anything!
This looks great! Love the double decker bus, it looks really cool. Keep up your amazing work.
Thanks, I will!
This bus is great! The shape is just right. I was literally thinking about that pizza sticker just as you brought it out to add it. It looks great there.
It does. So happy it fitted there!
The bus is so cool! It actually looks like an off brand Lego set that I got a few years ago.
Haha, cool!
Yay
Yay indeed!
Looks great. Trying to find a bus set for my Lego city. I guess the sets that have a bus are retired. Do have video on how you built your buses.
Errr. Isn't this a video on how I built my bus? The single decker one is in a previous video!
Looks great! Very clean and streamlined build. I think the low profile really doesn't take anything away from the build when there are so many great details to look at.
Thanks for that. Happy to hear it!
Awesome Video Robin!! I think the bus turned out great. The stairs look great as well as the advert on the back. It matches well with the normal bus. Great job!!
So glad I got that advert in. It was part of the reason for the build!
my only suggestion is those 2 pairs of wheels look like seriously stressed lol, maybe add another pair?
All our buses have only for wheels so I'll keep it real!
@@RobinHoodBricks What so in london the double decker buses have only 4 wheels? Strange I liv win Sydney and we only got one model of double decker buses and they got 6 wheels
hello! it's a nice bus.... but as a busdriver myself i am wondering where the Engine is located?
I knew I'd forgotten something.
It's supposed to be at the bottom at the back. There's a textured brick. It's there!
I wish I had your building skills you are such a talented guy.
Loving your channel cheers 🖖
Thank you so much. That's so nice to hear!
Nice, maybe edges between top an bottom deck windshields bit too sharp
LEGO is a bit blocky at times!
Love the bus, playable and REALLY great top deck! Good reuse of stickers too. Would actually mostly fit Nottingham in one time or another (used to be on the red line myself) but I do love the Nottingham buses are multicoloured, might need to do a copy of one myself...perhaps my local Purple (not quite Knight Bus style, heh).
I considered doing them green with an accent colour but red is just so classic!
Totally, most cities have some form of red bus, and the London ones are classy!
Nice
Yesss!
Great bus
Thanks!
Hey Robin, great bus & great time see all your designs! I’ve finally got a pc again (not setup though as waiting to finish my lego design/building/display room in my little bungalow!) & have been recommended LDD for doing my Mocs. I just wondered if you could tell me please, does it give you a list of bricks needed once you decide on your finalised build? Thanks again for all your great teaching 👍🏼😊
You can do "Export BOM" which produces a list of parts. Or, if you use BrickLink, you can upload the save file directly!
You should do an episode just filling up the bus. There should be a person who is fast asleep, there should be a stroller blocking the aisle right at the front, there should be a couple of time travelling Star Trek IV (Kirk and Spock) visiting, along with a guy blasting music (if you know, you know).
Mrs Hood's favourite film. Spock pinches him!
I live your bus MOCs! They are convincingly a modern bus. The only complaint is that the front of the double decker looks a bit boxy but of course Lego is that way
Yes, maybe unavoidable. Glad you liked them!
You could have someone making/playing annoying music on the top deck and getting into a fight with someone else.
Or someone could be trying to get some way to bulky luggage up the stairs.
Yes, annoying music might be a good plan!
Another great build!
Hmmm... secret power functions build... new tram line? Maybe?
Nope. Something more industrial!
Most double deck buses have two doorways, 1 at the front and 1 at the back, Maybe you could add a second door? However you can still find "older style" buses with singe doors
Every double decker bus in real life Nottingham has a single door at the front!
@@RobinHoodBricks ahh I see!
The only place where buses have two doors pretty much is london
@@kacperkrakowski here in Dublin, some of the Bus Atha Cliath's (Dublin Bus) have two doors and others have 1.
@@IESpotter I'm talking about England
Hey robin you should make a coach or something for like school kids or something and also with all your buses add little studs on poles so you can have it look like a stop butter then when the bus is full have people holding the poles looks good.
There's not a huge amount of space for poles but it does sound good!
Hello, i love the build but i just wanted to ask if you are planning to add Avengers tower to your city?
I have a Space Tower that looks similar so I probably won't. MOCs are more fun as they make the city unique!
Now that you have a double-decker bus and a normal bus you need a coach . And It could be a airport coach out side your airport
My roads will be full of buses at this rate, haha!
Really liked this double decker bus! Could you try build an articulated bus?
Haha, that would be bus number four in the city!
@@RobinHoodBricks this city deserves it
In America there’s like no double deck only in New York City where I live and tour bus
Yeah, I think we have most of them in the UK!
That bus looks great!
Cheers!
I feel like your the most underrated LEGO creator u deserve more❤️❤️
Very true, haha!
You could use someone like Bricksanity to print those logos on your bricks. Uses the same method as legos printed bricks.
That's an expensive slippery slope to be on with a city this size!
I've heard many stories where a double decker bus got jammed under a low railway bridge
Hopefully it'll fit under all mine!
Awesome bus .well done brilliant video
Thank you!
Yes?
Definitely!
That's another very nice built! But you forgot the minifigs in it?
Yes, maybe I should've added people and the bus to the city. I'm trying to keep videos shorter though as an experiment in subscriber growth!
Oh yes the open top double decker bus is perfect for tours around Brick Nottingham
Yup!
Hi Robin this is a suggestion maybe you could build a bus depot in your city or bus station.
Maybe but that a lot of space needed!
Your Mic is like all of your others....AWESOME!
Thanks, it means a lot!
Im now in dubai so the buses have doors in the right instead of the left
Yes, I always swap them so they're right for the UK!
On my open double deck bus I put a party pooper at the back, unrelated but I wanna tell you!
Cool!
Great build! I'd raise that railing by a stud though...
The top railing? Yes, I think I agree!
I like your content just see rebuild bus from minimum to maximum.that inspire me to play lego just build transportation.😏
Yay, enjoy!
Will you be adding minifigures in your Double Decker Bus?
I'll try to do this as part of next Friday's video!
i think you shud bild sj f1200 from sverige!
A Swedish steam train? Very specific. Maybe one day but definitely not soon!
Another AWESOME build!
Yessssss!
Thank you so much! I really want to build it
You can do it!
Certainly a nice double decker bus that you've made
Thanks!
How was I not subbed to you?!
I've been asking myself that for months!
Can you do the 3D Subway entrance next Friday?
I might do. Either that or the monorail extension!
i’ve been looking forward to this
Great. Hope you liked it!
@@RobinHoodBricks you could say that
Did you consider 4 Weels at the back?
I didn't purely because the real ones we have in Nottingham don't. They were the inspiration!
I'm not sure if you're planning to do this but would you plan on making a farm on the outskirts of brick Nottingham and that's where all the produce for the shops in Nottingham come from as well as some of the goods that get exported at the harbour
Yes there is plan for a farm in the far corner.
Yes it's going where the rollercoaster is sat now!
That worked out verry well! Realy a cool taller brother!
Yeah, I think I prefer it to the smaller one!

Cool bus. Very high in my tunnels😂😂🤪
Yes, fortunately I don't have any road tunnels, haha!
City Lane! Is my ears and in my eyes! *trumpet*
There beneath the blue, suburban skies!
How about the long bus update?🙂
There is a video on the single decker, if that's what you mean. I'm not planning on doing a long bendy one!
Looks good, but maybe better if shorter windows were available for the upper deck?
I think 2 brick height would look far too thin and no in-between height!
Cool double decker. One suggestion to improve the life of some of your citizens would be to swap out the windows on the stairs to a black diagonal line to help preserve the modesty of the girls and scotsmen that want to sit on the top
I hadn't thought of that. Although there nothing to see there to be honest with minifigures!
Looks good. Nice MOC as usual.
Thanks, Valerio!
usually the stairs are in the back but i guess that works..!!!
I think that's London buses. All of ours are a single door and stairs just like these!
@@RobinHoodBricks oh cool
Change one of the lights on the back to amber or clear for an indicator.
Brilliant build.
'All aboard!'
Maybe it doesn't show up well but some of the lights on the back are amber. Thanks so much!
@@RobinHoodBricks thanks for that. 👍
Found you from Kaz at Blockhead UK, nice to find a UK AFOL.
Subed
@@decam5329 Great news!
As an American this bus feels flipped the wrong way around. I think LHD vehicles are very cool though! Good job as always
Fair enough, but I couldn't build it the wrong way for the UK either!
Cool new Buses, but I really don't like that light bluish gray plates at the 2nd floor, Can you maybe remove them or change the color of them?
Good Job!
If you see the earlier designs I did they look a bit too red without the line!
What about a pickpocket in the bus?
I'm sure I have enough criminals to spare!
Hi Robin,
Thanks for the upload. This is a first double-decker bus that seems to really work and looks in proportion, so, great job!
Wow, thanks!
@Robin Hood Bricks, you should make the bus have 6 wheels instead of 4 because double decker busses normally have 6 wheels!
All buses in real life Nottingham have four!
Very nice bus. i really like it but one thing you could do is make that tiny wall in front of the stairs on first floor same size as the rest of the wall. You don't have to connect it to the roof even. I think it would make that wall more useful cause it blocks the stairs from the side + i think it just looks better. But i don't know how it is in real life so if it is that tiny, then keep it and don't change anything. Can't wait the minifigs on action as well :D Always fun to watch some good scenes.
Yes, can't wait to add it to the city!
Very nice, I need a bus in my city .
You do. They are strangely satisfying!
Hey Robin Hood bricks, you should make a lego London Underground train station and London Underground Victoria line train! - this was said by my cousin haha.
I have two underground stations. Check out the Subway playlist!
The bus real look great!!!
Thank you, my friend!
I mean it would be appropriate for the nows the time to visit sticker cause it could be advertising London transportation services so yeah that’s my take
Cool. I agree!
a bus can crach is well! : /
I guess it can!
Amazing I love this
Yay, thanks!
@@RobinHoodBricks np 👋 I need one of these great looking buses
Would you bild a fire station
I'm not planning on it at the moment!
