LEGO Snow Plow Train: working and clearing snow

- I've started building my LEGO Snow Plow two years ago (over on my German channel) and thought I'd share the process and how it functions in a short fun little video with you :)
this man hiked a 2000 foot mountain to run a lego train what a legend
Not trying to be the guy who knows everything better but actually he hiked a 6500 foot mountain which makes him the ultimate legend, haha
@@letuten my brain: in terms of math, we have no math
2000 meters lol
Only he would
Metres*
I used to love LEGO trains as a kid, and I even had a yellow train just like this one. Wonderful video :)
Meinst du den Gelben Güterzugtriebwagen?
Ich glaube schon
@@zip_makes_maps9636 Okay.
Sam
Same here it was one of my first Lego train with the green cargo one
Love how you spend all day on this and also got your friends to come along. This put a huge smile on my face 😊😁
Congratulations to you for making it work 🎉
here in the US, I've seen people with indoor/outdoor model train tracks use their own snow trains to clear the tracks for use in the winter. If your new space allows for it, it might be fun to run a section of track outside for snow clearing demonstrations in the winter.
No that don‘t work because in Front of the Building is the street and they aren‘t allowed to break the main walls.
@@Jocraft2039 He could build a train / road crossing where the cars have to wait for the tiny train to pass.. 😁
What an amazing creation :)
Wow beautiful
Yup
“Hey friends! Let’s go climb a 2,000 foot mountain to drive my Lego train in the snow!” Friends: 🥶
But that’s so awesome! Now you need a moc to fit your Lego snowplow!
2000 meters. 6000 foot
Living the dream.
Yeah! /s
He is German so no Problem
@@Jocraft2039 I think he's Austrian
That's so cool, didn't expect it to work that well!
Wow! It would be much less fun of course, but have you ever tried a regular wedge-shaped snowplough?
no, not yet :)
@@Brick_Crafts Why not combine it with the rotor, so the rotor breaks down the snow and the plough clears away what's left?
@@Brick_Crafts do a lawnmower next lol

The reason why this design of spinning plough was created was that it meant you didn't have to ram the snow, you could just keep moving
On real trains, the rotating piece is called a rotor, or an impeller. To get through sections of track where the snow is too deep, they run forward until the impeller starts to bog down, then they back away until it gets back up to speed, and then move forward again. The biggest error in your design, however, is that the plow car should send all of its power to the impeller and have a separate, normal locomotive pushing it to move forward. The plow itself should not have powered wheels.
A drilling machine to make a snow tunnel would be so cool!!
I'm impressed how well you got it to work. It's actually keeping almost all of the snow it blows off of the completely vertical faces on the side of the train.
One of my bestfriends is a train conductor and he just sent me a snap of him in the snow clearing train and showing it in use. Absolutely massive!
It's pretty cool, like the adaptations to make it better, one way that I can see the propeller connecting into the snow better is to have a pointed tip if possible I think that would allow the propeller to push into the snow slightly better but then again it clears the snow anyway and seems to work perfectly 👍
It's always good to have friends that say "That's crazy - let's go!"
I love how it looks when the propeller spins up!
What an amazing and cool idea! I really like the design!
This is awesome! And I also think with this thick snow covering already layed tracks it would be interesting to build a boring machine, to make tunnels in snow!
Cool project, I love that you brought it with you on a ski trip up a mountain to test it in natural conditions.
My favourite snowplough train design is the cold war Hungarian one: An Ikarus bus converted to rails with a MiG-15 jet engine installed in the front and pointed forward
You could make a Snow Area in your LEGO City with Penguins, Polar bears, Snow Men, Santa's Workshop, People skiing and so much other stuff!!
The dedication to your craft is amazing.
"They all thought I was crazy but they all agreed!" Love it!
Nice build! I always love your videos!
Cheers, from Poland! 😁
Fast 2 Jahre später ist es auch auf dem Englischen Kanal gelandet xD
This is so cool! I’ve watched this on your German channel but I didn’t understand a thing. Now that you have uploaded this on your English Channel I can see what’s going on. This is amazing!
I really wouldn't have thought that any lego MOC in Kombination with real Water could properly Work, so this was a very pleasant suprise, good Job!
Very different video from the others. Educational and Entertaining nonetheless 👏👏👏
I've seen someone years ago do this, they had the same amount of snow ❄️ and built a lego town in dire need. Guy used a special plow took forever to move that much but saved the lego town
I really think that the NS (Dutch Railway) should watch this video...
Volgens mij duwde hij stiekem op t einde de trein met zn hand, maar das ook n tip voor de ns.
Love it 😄
You look at the old steam engines, fitted with their snow ploughs in the bad UK snows of the 50s and they did amazing work. Modern ones just cant compete.
Babe wake up, new Brickcrafts sidequest video 🤩
i read the title as
LEGO snow plow train: CLEARLY WORKING
everything you do is so cool and your friends seem great! thanks for all the creative, hard work that you do... can't wait to see what's next
Amazing and interesting.
Very amazing creation!
This is such a cool video. I love that you went up the mountain to get that nice powder. That forest run looks fun.
I use to love trains lego when they actually add snow on the railway even though it is really creative!
This one is so interesting. Coming from Australia where it has literally never snowed in my garden, I can't ever imagine doing this. 😄
you know what would be interesting ? making the train collect snow compressing it into a brick and throw them out of the side like a hay bale machine but with snow
I love this soo cool u did great. love making stuff in LEGO and MOC bricks
Wow awesome snowplow!
Everychilds Dream:
Pls do more more snowplows
No ones talking about his skiing skills
I know right- dude has fucking beautiful technique
I only found this channel a few days ago but i gotta say
you never fail to amaze me
This is really cool I would never be able to do something like this:)
Why are Legos so cool? 😄
Now I just need a life-sized lego snowblower to keep my driveway clear for the winter.
Some odd reason... this is satisfying to watch
3:15 damn bro, good form through that powder!
Thats really Unique idea!
ok this is epic
The interesting thing about rotary snow plows is that no matter how much snow there is there's always multiple locomotives pushing.
The beginning was so funny to me idk why😂
Tbh those looked like some 🔥 pow laps
This is DELIGHTFUL
You should make one of those machines they use to drill tunnels through mountains and drill a tiny hole through the snow
Legos, Trains, ski touring… did we just become best friends? Yup!
This is very awesome!
Altes Footage + neue Kommentierung = easy profit XD
your youtube channel brings me so much joy
Very cool how well it worked😊
That would be a great addition to anyone who has an outdoor Lego railway
That is absolutely brilliant. I have recently started my Lego collection so I only have a few small sets, in fact I just put together a small mandalorian and tiny razorcrest last night
Wow, hiking to the top of a mountain to test a Lego snow plow train is dedication!
When you move over to the Lego museum, you could make a snow area/ winter village scene where that train might fit into clear train tracks to get there from the main city :)
i always wanted to have lego trains when i was a kid, very cool vid!
Those are some good friends man.
A tunnel bor train would be epic :o
This guy literally climbed a mountain to play with lego. Respect
Thank you very much this made my day and considering that it’s finals week thats saying something
"man, you want to hike up a snowy mountain to test a lego train-snowplow? hell yeah!"
That was amazing! Much love from Denmark, home of LEGO ❤
i want to improve your idea, why not using the 1x4x0.1 mm fence piece as the snow plowing part on the front of the rotor? cus i have seen u have been using the 2x1 small slope piece for it. With the other piece, you can scoop up more snow parts a second, than u currently can do... just an idea
He will not do this because this Video was created and released on his main Channel last year wich is german
"How does this, not have a million views🤯"
Way cool...and the downhill shot was epic😎
Pov: He only made the video to flex his skiing skills😃
:P
Just some ideas:
- the train should be heavy for more traction
- the rotor should be kind of screw-shaped so that it does not hit the snow with its full cross sectional area but with a tip increasing in diameter, thus making penetration much easier - kind of like a drill.
You are crazy with your builds, I think lego should hire you because you are so creative when it comes to this, and if there is a problem you fix it
Ski tour is the best of skies!
amazing !!!
it is, i've never seen something impressive snow-plow MOC before
You built a *_The Union Pacific rotary snow plow!_* on a Lego city scale?
I mean, it looks a bit weird being that short, but, that's amazing!
Mate that is such a unique idea, I love that!!!
Awesome video... and amazed by you incredible skiing skills :)
Love this video. You have really good friends. Looks like a lot of fun!
make a part in your lego world that has a train plowing real snow!that would be AWSOME
Damn dude that's so awesome you deserve more subs
Great video!!!!! If you could continue to incorporate more past videos or work from your German channel, but translated to English, that'd be great! It'd give this channel more content.
That's awesome. I remember I used to build snow plows n pushers out of knex during the winter.
Good work!!! Excellent!!!
genius: build several train lines that clear a path out every time it snows to the essential places
You have to respect the dedication! Keep up the incredible work
Can you do tutorial video for all your trees how you do them 😁👍
A snowy new town would be nice to it.
Get a bit of silicone lube on the gears and shafts to reduce running friction, Looks awesome
You could build an automatic rail cleaner next!
Wow! That is amazing 🎉
Love it
Damn look at you go down the mountain!!
I think it’s time for me to ski resort knowing your skills it would be amazing
This is beautiful
Nice lego choo-choo train.
