We know why this engine is famous, helped a lot of us get into trains and railroads in general. There’s nothing wrong with that. Excellent models as always.
@@IndustrialParrot2816 yeah the tv show made Thomas shorter.......but I’m fine with it. I like the tv show Thomas more than the original Rev.W.Awdry model.
The E2 looks flawless. It's always been one of my favourite tank engines and you really did it justice here. The P Class is just adorable - there's something about such a small locomotive pulling such large coaches that appeals to me in a way I can't properly articulate. And that Garratt tease was masterful. Simply masterful. You have me hooked, and good luck as you continue to expand your fleet!
Many thanks Thaddeus, these two new engines sure are neat! I can't wait to add more the fleet, I think you all will be excited to see what I have installed!
This is so good I’ll never make something this good I also designed my own E2. 31 studs long and 8 studs wide I didn’t really try to focus on a specific railway, but I did get details in it
Hey technoadrew I love your city engine on your channel picture. It’s sick but I’m having problems with building the city engine. So can you please ship me a replica of the city engine so that I won’t have trouble making it.
@@Britishbricks well, judging it's a model of my favourite steam locomotive and that basis of a popular tank engine (and my main original character), I feel it's well deserved
I could make a reference to a certain children's tv icon... Reading through the comments, however, reveals that has already been done to death. Due to this, I will instead say that the model looks AMAZING!
What wheels did you use for the E2 in this video? The instructions I bought said to use the medium-sized drive wheels. Although I like the size of the medium drive wheels, I would like to replace them with ones that are just a little bigger
Great as always I noticed that on all 3 of your locomotives in this video you have 9v train motors in your rolling stock. My question is if the three locomotives (E2 , SE & CR P class, BR class 85 ) Did not have power within ?
I like your signal design, although I'd say try and make the back white with a black band where the white would be on the front. It says to any drivers going the opposite way that the signal is not for them. And the green and red round tiles need to be swapped unless the signal goes down, as well as being on the left hand side of the pole. With a lower quadrant signal the green aspect as it is called, would be beneath the red one. So when the signal arm is horizontal its at the stop position, then it can be moved down and so the green aspect is over the lamp saying that any train can proceed.
Wow, someone knows their signals! I admit, I lack a great deal of knowledge on signals, so this is super helpful! I need to remake it to make it functional, I'll read up more on them soon. Thanks mate!
@@Britishbricks I've only learnt a lot through growing up around a heritage railway all my life! Definitely watch my mate's video on signalling as well, th-cam.com/video/Oo5ihc1jtjE/w-d-xo.html
We request a series of you building the Lego train layout so you can have an area to enjoy your trains to go through and it would be good content for the channel
@@daylightman8459 This is 100% the truth, the only reason Thomas works is because of the modifications done to him. Though I'm glad that Thomas is an E2 as seeing him as a J50 would look strange.
Wow! We truly have had a renaissance in these Lego engine community ever since you arrived; don't get me wrong, there were people before you that did well but none have your eye for details and overall everything you make is new and revolutionary, as well as a treat to look at. On thing I must say is, the E2 is not properly built, as the cab and bunker's running board should slope down like the front. Unless that was the plan...?
I've tried to make it slope, and it does slope down, just not as far. You can really see the running board as it doesn't stick out, like the real thing. Thanks!
Great models and great video, really impressed with how you captured the curved running board of the E2. Out of curiosity what is the music track here? I don't know if you downloaded it or bought it somewhere but I'd love to download/buy this track. Keep up the great work!
Well you have a few options with making the E2 available> obviously you could always just make another HTB video, though I'm assuming the wheels are stopping you from doing so. (which you could do anyway and just not include the wheels, with a little PSA at the end of the vid about what they are and where to get them) another option is Bricklink/stud.io its easy to upload custom parts into Bricklink and then just make the file available via Bricklink for people download and deconstruct on their own. I'm also currently working on my own E2 and Im having difficulty atm, so I'm INCREDIBLY curious to see how yours is put together! Maybe some techniques form yours could help improve mine. I have a hard time doing 7 wide so seeing a complete E2 in the same scale would help me tremendously. I cant wait to see how yours works when you release the files!

@@Tchtm it’s Thomas the Tank Engine
We know why this engine is famous, helped a lot of us get into trains and railroads in general. There’s nothing wrong with that.
Excellent models as always.
Too true! Thanks Glenn :)
sadly there are no E2's left they where all scraped in the 60s
Sooo true, Shame there gone
Y'know, nothings stopping someone from building an E2
I know why they're so popular, thomas the E2 class tank engine
“He’s a cheeky little engine, with six small wheels, a short stumpy funnel, a short stumpy boiler, and a short stumpy dome”
(whistle) " Hello everyone, welcome to my first Lego running session"
E2's are actully a larger tank engine and did push-pull services annie and clarabelle are push-pull coachs
@@IndustrialParrot2816 yeah the tv show made Thomas shorter.......but I’m fine with it. I like the tv show Thomas more than the original Rev.W.Awdry model.
Thomas the tank engine
@@Upguy-tj3gv I'm fine that they made thomas shorter, what i wish they didn't do was make annie and clarabell four wheel coaches instead of bogies
"Daddy what's his name?"
"Thomas"
The E2 looks flawless. It's always been one of my favourite tank engines and you really did it justice here. The P Class is just adorable - there's something about such a small locomotive pulling such large coaches that appeals to me in a way I can't properly articulate.

Wow the garrat looks amazing can’t wait till she’s finished
Shouldn’t be much longer, just needs some final tweaks...
This is so good
I’ll never make something this good
I also designed my own E2. 31 studs long and 8 studs wide
I didn’t really try to focus on a specific railway, but I did get details in it
First person to guess what's missing on the E2 & P class gets respect!
Perhaps a Westinghouse pump?
Either a Westinghouse air pump, or safety valves?
Good guesses but not quite...
I reckon an air pump, but I can't remember ever seeing an E2 or P with one
The answer was no drivers, and just realising, steps on the right side of both locos :0
Love the e2! Very unique design along with the p class. Can’t wait to see that Garrett in action!
You and me both! Thanks mate :)
I like the way you did the funnel on the e2
Thanks mate!
“A short,stumpy funnel” if you know you know
Do you mean that talking e2?
@@currymuncheryt ah, yes
@@sethbricked Ah I see you are a man of culture
Wonderful work, as always. The locos look superb!
Many thanks, Andrew!
Hey technoadrew I love your city engine on your channel picture. It’s sick but I’m having problems with building the city engine. So can you please ship me a replica of the city engine so that I won’t have trouble making it.
Possibly my favourite 0-6-0 steam locomotive.
And maybe the largest 0-6-0 tank engine built.
100/10
100/10?! That’s generous :D
@@Britishbricks well, judging it's a model of my favourite steam locomotive and that basis of a popular tank engine (and my main original character), I feel it's well deserved
That E2 looks amazing pal, great work. Shame you didn't keep it...
Nice job ! Gave me Thomas the Tank Engine vibes 😊
Hi British bricks the train looks absolutely amazing my grandad drove theses it was a nice throw back
Wow, that’s awesome to hear. Thanks for watching!
Omg yes! Can't wait!
Woohoo, not long!
Ooooo another great build!
Cheers mate! Even though I don't like the engine, I'm pretty chuffed on how it came out!
You have such a mastery with bricks I can barely tell your trains apart from model trains
My thanks Alexander! I still have room for improvement though, need to step up my technic game!
I could make a reference to a certain children's tv icon... Reading through the comments, however, reveals that has already been done to death. Due to this, I will instead say that the model looks AMAZING!
Nice Job! The engines look great!
I like that British Bricks this one is beautiful e2 class steam locomotive just like the real one.
Amazing!! All of your models and videos inspire me to build my own!
Awesome to hear!
Cant wait For The next amazing Train!!!
It’s coming in 45 minutes from now
Ah, another beautiful video on a bright day
Indeed! Was just bright enough to shoot another video - thinking of getting some stand up lighting for future vids!
This is such a great model you did a great job on it. Can’t wait to see more.
Cheers mate, glad you like it - more to come!
That garret is certainly coming along nicely!
It's getting there for sure!
These are stunning to look at
Now that's impressive! It looks just like Thomas.
Love the video!!
So glad to hear, thanks Jemima!
My am a BIG fan of the E2 train so I LOVE THIS good job on the your lego trains🚂🚃🚃🚃🚃👍
What wheels did you use for the E2 in this video? The instructions I bought said to use the medium-sized drive wheels. Although I like the size of the medium drive wheels, I would like to replace them with ones that are just a little bigger
I would use ML wheels from Breckland Bricks. You might need to modify the design so they fit though. Thanks and sorry for the late reply!
The 1 dislike is from diesel
And those tank engines are very high detailed!
Keep the the good work mate
Cheers mate, glad you like it!
Great as always I noticed that on all 3 of your locomotives in this video you have 9v train motors in your rolling stock. My question is if the three locomotives (E2 , SE & CR P class, BR class 85 ) Did not have power within ?
The E2 is an amazing model. I really like all the ingenious techniques. Shame you broke it up for parts.
That Beyer Garratt looks incredible! 🚂
Thanks!!
SUPER cool men!👍👍👏😃
Thanks Andrew!!
So much detail! Looks like Thomas
You litterally are the best steam engine creator I know
Cheers mate, too kind!

I think I realized what was missing on the E2, *a face*
Ah yes, this engine in a blue color made me a train fan, and Im still a fan of that show and books to this day
Toot toot!
I really like the music.
Cheers teddy, happy to hear that!
I love this video and i love the E2
You just need to give the e2 a Thomas face and it’s a railway series Thomas:)
* plays a little more sad ttte theme *
its better than mattel's thomas
Thanks!
Especially now considering the "All Engines Go" Promo.
@@Britishbricks what type of lego chain did you use for the front of your LB&SCR E2
I agree and I think lego and Mattel are great.
This reminds me of the railways series version and the illustration version of Thomas the tank engine.
Never been so happy about a video lol
Cheers Matthew!
It’s beautiful your really good at this
Thanks mate!
@@Britishbricks no problem
@@Britishbricks one question what made you start building lego steam locomotives
I like the look of those break bars under the wheel
Cheers Marcus! :D
FINALLY MY FAVOURITE TANK ENGINE! !!!!
It's a lot of peoples favourite apparently!
It's a lot of peoples favourite apparently!
Also can you build another one and turn it into Thomas the Tank Engine I've always wanted you to build it pls :)
These are extraordinary trains mate
Cheers mate, glad you like em!
Looks great! Can’t wait to see what’s next
Thanks Benji, a very exciting reveal to come!
@@Britishbricks you can just call me Ben
"dad, I heard you loved trains, why is that?"
"Thomas"
When a LEGO model railway has more rolling stock than your actual model railway...
Got two more vent vans in the works, plus a new LMS break van too!
@@Britishbricks Can't wait! :)
"I've brought Edward's trucks sir."
"Why did you come so fast?!"
"I didn't mean to, I was pushed!!"
Thx for making my idea
I may be a day late but it's still worth watching it
Thanks mate! Never too late for a video ;)
@@Britishbricks even if I watched this at 4am
I think I speak for us all when I say
Great detail great models
Many thanks friend!
Great vid btw
Thanks Matt!
I can't wait to get instructions for the E2 it looks great
Cheers mate, just need to figure out how to share them...
@@Britishbricks Rebrickable is a great way to share instructions online!
@@Britishbricks You can share them in bricklink's studio gallery
So detailed and beautiful
Thanks Matias!
O...M...G. Thomas! Great Lego models!👍
Thanks! 😀
bruh
I love this I can’t wait to be able to build the tank engine. And it’s so cool keep up the good work mate.
Thanks a ton, mate!
I want a copy of the E2
It will be made available in the near future!
Great LEGO Mocs
Thanks!
Amazing builds buy the way i think a J50 would look cool
We request a series of you building the Lego train layout so you can have an area to enjoy your trains to go through and it would be good content for the channel
That's what my new tables are for! Planning to make an entire layout, check out the station video if you haven't seen it already :)
Nice work that you put on the E2 Fun fact: Thomas was actually based off from the E2 from Thomas & Friends
Yes. The E2’s themselves are a rubbish machine immortalised by popular culture like the DeLorean.
@@daylightman8459 This is 100% the truth, the only reason Thomas works is because of the modifications done to him. Though I'm glad that Thomas is an E2 as seeing him as a J50 would look strange.
@@daylightman8459 but, just because they did have some problems, that doesn't stop us from liking these little engines
I love steam trains and Lego, this is awesome
Wow! We truly have had a renaissance in these Lego engine community ever since you arrived; don't get me wrong, there were people before you that did well but none have your eye for details and overall everything you make is new and revolutionary, as well as a treat to look at.

I've tried to make it slope, and it does slope down, just not as far. You can really see the running board as it doesn't stick out, like the real thing. Thanks!
1:58 when i buy the instruction pack do i also get the pieces too?
No just the instructions, and a list of pieces you'll need.
@@Britishbricks thx
When the instructions come out, I challenge someone to make an E2 with blue paint, red stripes, and a #1 on its sides.
Me too, good luck to that person!
I will change it to my favourite livery,LBSCR umber
Great models and great video, really impressed with how you captured the curved running board of the E2. Out of curiosity what is the music track here? I don't know if you downloaded it or bought it somewhere but I'd love to download/buy this track. Keep up the great work!
I get all my music free from the youtube audio library :) Thanks!
P2 the cute version of the e2
Nice build looks just like Thomas
It looks beautiful, the E2. Love it
Thanks mate!
And they tell me all the e2 classes are all scrapped. This is great
Thanks mate!
I also love the br class 08
Finally, no more running on the floor, but running on a table set up instead.
Super happy to have the tables, only problem is I don’t have the curves pieces to run bigger setups - so expect to see a few more floor vids.
Understood.
These videos inspire me to combine by love of Lego and trains but I have no idea where to start.
It's a complicated hobby but you eventually get the hang of it. I'd start with a small LEGO set, then try to modify and go off on your own!
That is a good P class!
Thank you :)
Thanks I love your videos
Thank you Joseph, I appreciate your support!
You no I was the won ho said that you should make a lbsc d2 class locomotive
I love it!
This is amazing! You should make the furness railway d5 or some lego Thomas the tank engine stuff.
So for the e2, what side rod length did you use?
I can already hear “Thomas and the Trucks” playing in the background.
Nice model
I love the lego e2 train

Everyones favorite little tank engine
0:10 referencie Thomas and the trucks 😊👍♥️🚂🚃🚃🚃🚃🚃🚃🚃🚃🚃🚃🚃🚃🚃🚃🚃🚃🚃🚋💨
Isn't it a condenser that goes on the side of the tank
Love the trains very nice
Thanks mate :)
Where do you get those connecting rods from❓
The E2 you made is way better than
the season 25 Thomas and Beta Thomas
Ya know this reminds me of a certain blue tank engine with a 1 and a ffaaccee
MAKE IT BLUE WITH THE NUMBER ONE ON THE SIDE TANKS! 😀
Will you do either the caledonian 652 or 812 or both? I love the design!
I personally prefer the LMS 4F 0-6-0's
Why does the e2 in this video have large wheels but the brick junction instructions show medium size wheels?
Pls tell me when you gor the siderods for yor p class on trainedbricks?
