The 4551 is not a "real crocodile", but the German DR E94 or (later) DB 194 or the Austrian ÖBB 1022. It really has "only" 6 wheelsets in two bogies (in technical terms: Co’Co’).
A "crocodile" in the proper sense is just the Swiss SBB Ce 6/8 II or SBB Ce 6/8 III (wheel arrangement (1’C)(C1’)).
But yes, the term "crocodile" got somewhat "watered down" nowadays.
I agree. The E 94 is sometimes referred to as the 'German Crocodile'.
Perfectly explained!
the German Crocodile from Heidelberg
The black instructions are something I really enjoy as an eye floater sufferer lol older LEGO trains looked whack comparatively
MandRproductions you can built multiple older sets in the time to build one set from today. I could built every set produced in 1974 faster than one UCS Falcon. That’s my video idea.
hey Ryan. dude i totally agree with that.
Hi but for me as a color blind person i dislike it very much. The ghostbuster hq was a nithmare to build for that reason.
Whaaaat Ryan from MandRproductions
Marc-Andre Sauriol Oh god this has me worried. I have that set but I've not got around to building it yet. There's been a few times where I needed help with the colours like the Yellow Submarine set and the floor tiles in the Simpsons house
The SBB is one of my favorite railroads....
The Rhaetian Railway in the Swiss state of Graubunden is also very beautiful!
I also got this on first day of release. The brown colour is accurate to the actual locomotives. The only bummer is that it cost me $170 with no GWP at my LEGO store.😀👍
Can’t wait to get this one!
That last scene with all the trains running is just majestic! LEGO Has gotten the first hint that we would like more trains, now they need the hint that we like opening doors! A bit fiddly on the new one but sure someone will solve it. And there was photos of a 4th Crocodile Train before the others but they never released it sadly. And those 9v cables need some love dude! Thanks for showing these. I really love the Hobby Train one. Thanks for sharing your thoughts!
Cool set...I have the Marklin 1/87 scale model and this look a very good design for a working Lego model...
The first one is like an ÖEBB crocodile. The second one is like a swiss one, but in their flag's colours, most presumably one operated by SBB CFF FFS. The third one is based on the realistic Rhaetian Railways livery of brown.
The third one is based on the first livery of the SBB Crocodiles which was brown and not green. Has nothing to do with the RhB Crocodile.
0:03 Brick Tsar: I love trains
Train dude: I like trains
There is an awesome Lego Via Rail that needs support on Lego Ideas. It might be turned into a Lego set that you can buy. It can be motorized with Lego Powered Up. It comes with a baggage car that can store canoes, a sleeping car with a lot play features, and a dome car with a lot of play features. I really want this train to achieve support and be turned into a Lego set.
Nice seeing the different versions of the crocodile side by side.
I think it's great Lego are making more trains. I'll buy every one of them!
I assembled my crocodile today. I enjoyed the build. Going to run it around the track tomorrow.
Thanks for the videos! I love all your Lego train content.
5:12 haha good accidental plug of Bricks in the Middle
Reminder: the rubber bands are hell, you can fix the gaps and it's easy to figure out, AND, 9V-track is the best to use
OMG those wires 😵
The color is correct, the crocodile exists in dark green and brown
更喜欢以前的9V时代的system系列火车，既有可动性又有引擎细节
Good to see all three generations running together 👍
I got the Lego crocodile train-set for Christmas this year and I’m 12 while the box is 18 and I all ready build it today
#nosticker #printgang
Great Video! The 4551 is shorter because the inspiration for the Set is from a German train locomotive called the E94. Take a look!
The middle section looks a bit like a tram
7:45 I actually agree that the black does not work very well for these types of models. While the system has been available since architecture in terms of instructions, it does feel weird that this particular 18 + set has a black background while the haunted house said released months ago had a gray to white background. I also thought that on the box art, while it is consistent with other models, it does detract from the reddish brown color of the train itself. When I first saw this I thought that it looked very dull because the box surrounding it was dull. I understand they're going for a classy appearance for the adult collector market, but they also could have made it look like a painted background with some mountains and clouds.
either way I really appreciate the review and comparison to the other trains, I'm actually a little bit more interested in it now thanks to your video but I am very curious on the ease of motorizing it
The evolution of the Croc, I think it looks great. I might get it with my Vip points though I’ve got a massive backlog of unbuilt sets
Will we see any more Train ‘Sets’ from LEGO?
nice. I like the new train.
I notice this locomotive has a 2-4-4-4-2 wheel configuration, maybe I could scratch build one and use motors out of hornby 0-4-0s to power it
Bricktsar they could climb from the snout and enter via the hole in the roof if they take it off!
great review
Love your authenticity!
Finally another serious train set. Those pantographs are ridiculously big lol. I have a problem with you calling a singular locomotive a train but you say locomotive that many times to not make it a problem. you actually know the difference between a locomotive and a train and it’s not force of habit. It’s not like you’re Izzy’s toy time or anything lol. Anyway that’s not gonna stop me watching your videos and your not oblivious to the terminology unlike Izzy’s toy time lol. Additionally I love your comparison between all 3 crocodile locomotives. I love how you always mention the wrench and the radio
Niels really thats prototypical. So the funky design is on purpose 🤔
A singular locomotive is a train. I have explained it before. I will go by what people that work on real railroads say vs the Thomas and Friends community - lol
BrickTsar yes you have your sources and I respect that your opinion is based on those sources. They have the holy grail inside information
@@BrickTsar in the UK we usually refer to a locomotive (singular) in the Train Signalling regulations as a 'Light Engine' ie a locomotive thats running on its own minus coaches or wagons. As a railway worker I am always amused by how folks argue what to call stuff :D
"Bricks in the Middle," by Kevin Hinkle. Check it out.
Great video I just got mine put together it’s an amazing set I hope they make it a yearly theme and we get another Locomotive or train next year
I gotta say the Hobby Trains version still looks surprisingly good
Brick Tsar, you are so lucky you were able to secure a copy of the set. I, like many others, have to wait a while for LEGO.com to restock it.
I had the same thing and so I made the trek to the LEGO store. A long drive but not as long as some people
It’ll be back in stock.
They should make a UP big boy
Hey BrickTsar, which one is your favourite? I mean overall
Excellent! What Camera do you use?
I am asking for my public transport channel.
Sorry was at work all day, it looks like a spectacular train and great design!
7:20 It’s Lego in Dark Mode.
#Brick-o-dile: You sure have some seriously weird brick-themed random stuff on this channel!
That is the calling card for the channel for sure
Nice, I’ll do my video tomorrow or Sunday, love the set! It was out of stock in no time, good we both have it, dark green would have been a nice colour aswel, they could have done the same as with one of those big technique cars, I think they could have done a colour pack, bring backthe lego my own train days were you get the base set and one of 2 colour packs
I had the extra slope as well and thought it was an odd one.
The dark brown and dark grey on black background made the instructions a pain to read, even with a fairly bright lamp beside me.
I wonder why the ball-pins in the drivers are red. There are black ones in the set as well...
What a great video. I loved seeing the comparison, and also a chance to see inside the cab, something the photos I have seen to-date have excluded. I would love to get this model to add to my rolling stock, which alas only comprises a 7740-1 Inter-City Passenger Train from 1980 (beautiful as it is). How I feel is that not only should Lego produce more trains, but also some quality railway station models akin to the Disney set (minus the Disney-related bits). Something architecturally similar in style (not in size) to the great stations seen in cities like Chicago, New York, Milan and so forth.
Insofar as the trains are concerned, I think it would be nice for Lego to produce a range of models based on a matching style (for the 7740-1 Inter-City, they produced a matching sleeper car). A good engine, or engines, accompanied by a range of add-on sets including standalone carriages... then let these stay on the market for at least 10 years, to allow people to save/collect etc. They can still produce special sets. All of this business about sets appearing and then going off the market and being resold by people at a mark-up as they are no longer available does my head in. This seems to be already happening with the new 10277 Crocodile Locomotive. I know Lego limit number per household, but Lego.com (UK site) currently out of stock, but plenty on ebay.co.uk at... guess what? a higher price.
Hey BrickTsar. I think there were four crocodile trains but the one I am talking about was in a set. I can’t remember the number but it was a green cargo train with a crane that could pick up a car and a van.
If you are thinking of the same one my son was thinking of I think you mean this one:th-cam.com/video/_wvRCBjsMM8/w-d-xo.html
BrickTsar yes that is the one I was talking about
Ever since I noticed that LEGO has separated the 3rd and 4th gauge axles from the other gauge wheels compared to the real life locomotive, this set has been peeving me :P
I didn't know that there was also a part collector in crocodile form. :-) I still have the parrot one.
I miss the doors on trains, too...
bricktsar do you have the book "the lego trains book" by holger matthes it has another a set of building instructions for a different version of the swiss crocodile.
Yes I do have that. I should get around to some of those suggestions
There were green and brown versions of the crocodile in real life
I'm scared of all that redish brown. I'm kinda torn between wait and see and why not?
The crocodile just must be green and not brown
Who knew this legendary locomotive would get a 3rd generation.
Other lego trains: bet you wont look real and nice
The older Lego crocodile locomotives:hold my beer
The brown Crocodile goes easier through the curves if you remove the red rubber rings from the wheels.
Why does everyone keep commenting that? I didn’t have a problem so I’m not sure why people are telling me to fix it
The Lego set refers to austrian Crocodile aka Baureihe 1020.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DRG_Class_E_94
The crocodile ind red color was typical for Austrias ÖBB, The color green for the same type of engines were used in Germany. (Baureihe E94 or BR 194),
If you like to build it, it's abailable at
www.bluebrixx.com/en/trains/101003/Locomotive-BR-194-BlueBrixx-Special
Actually the LEGO refers to the Swiss version as that is what it says in the instructions and that is where I got the information I said
@@BrickTsar Late to the game, but the instructions never mentioned what country it was from. The early 9v locomotive was indeed based of the OBB1020, which itself was based of the German BR E(1)94... Even the colorschema matches.
The original Ce 6/8 existed in two colours brown and green.
www.flickr.com/photos/40826712@N00/3206453862/sizes/l/
Yes blue hat is new and exclusive
No the 9 volt isnt the problem its that the expert crocodile locomotive doesnt take turns too well
The colour is very similar to that worn by some Crocodiles in service. My main dislike is that the actual locomotives don't have big gaps between the cab and the snouts. But Lego had to design the set this way to allow for articulation or the locomotive would just be a display piece.
ughhhhhhhh I cant believe that its already out of stock at Lego, it looks amazing though! can you use the old power functions peices in to motorize it?
hey BrickTsar. I love trains too. I missed out on the last set so i am down for this and at $189.00NZD its not a crazy price for use. Big thumbs up for your great video.
Danger!
At 6:10 above your left hand and left snout of the Croc what is the train green and red train on the yellow track?
It’s Nanoblocks th-cam.com/video/JlW0Rm3sM1g/w-d-xo.html
I just realized the steering wheel on the Hobby train Crocodile is to represent the flywheel... or whatever the wheel that doesn't touch the track is
I wish I could get my hands on the hobby train but $300-$400 on ebay is just too much :( guess ill get the new 2020 version
Nice concise (espresso time) review. Appreciate the comparison and short history. I like trains! But this one I’m on the fence...
The new box art I’m afraid is a bit bland. For many AFOLs the draw back to Lego is exactly the colourful and fun play set box art that was experienced as a child. And vibrant Lego stores having whole sections filled with black boxes!?!?
hi bricktsar
Everyone knows that nowadays no one uses Doors to get onto a Train :D :D :D (I hope they do Doors tho in future tho) So glad LEGO are doing this ;) Can't wait to see what the next Train will be to(hopefully this will sell really well so they continue to do more to) + LOVE the red versions to :P
Set 4551 has a shorter nose becous it is modeled aftwr a german verzion of the crocodile train. Wich had short and boxy front ends
Thanks for your Review. Really nice to see all crocodiles side by side. Please keep your humor. The large green playtoy crocodile. Cool. As a display model I like the brown crocodile. But the two gaps in the body doesn’t look right to me. Lego could it do better. And other youtube channels pointed it out that the long locomotive is jumping off tracks in some curves.... not good. We have a new competitor concerning brick built trains. That is bluebrixx.com they have so many locomotives and waggons. Keep up the good work. Stay safe.
Personally I love the old System Crocodile.
I just built mine and I also thought I had messed up when building when I saw that extra brown slope.
I think that there are a bunch of people doing the double check
Also, should lego re-release 9V (9V tracks and bogies)? I think that would be awesome.
They should but unfortunately they never will
Good Evening Jaabo, I bought this train today and am building it whilst watching your video. Thanks for your review. This is only my second Lego train purchase and was wondering if you lubricate the axles on your Lego trains? Love your channel and not a spam comment and hopefully soon the postal system and the world will get back to normal soon so I can make a purchase in your BrickLink store (I’m in the UK) and earn a signed brick. Thank You. DW.
Thank you very much. I’ve not lubricator them before. Perhaps graphite? But I’ve not run things long enough for it to be an issue
BrickTsar Thanks for reply. Keep up the great work, both Myself & my Wife really appreciate your informative video’s. I have only just started an interest in trains (most probably from viewing your channels). My collection is mostly Classic Space, Creator, Star Wars and your least favourite Harry Potter! Thanks again. Darren & Carol Ward.
And have a great socially distanced family oriented Independence Day.
The second and the last version is called swiss crocodile. The first one (4551) is called german crocodile or iron pig - so not a real 'crocodile'. It was used in Germany and Austria.
Wow that new train engine is pretty long. Hmm maybe they should of made it in red too
I think I didn’t pull the trigger cause I’m not a big fan of the crocodile style locomotive. Don’t know. Maybe I will. Maybe I won’t.
The raised tiles on the "snouts" (?) are prototypical.
Really? Neat then. I wish they could have included picture of original but I guess they didn’t procure the rights
Hi brickstar!!!!!
uhh are the ridged bricks orientated wrong?
You don’t need to type word whiskers. Perhaps some are placed wrong.
I have poor eyesight
@@BrickTsar he I was just asking because the ridges are vertical and horizontal ... no bad feelings :(
7:53 to skip the "normal" Crocodile... go straight to the red ones... ;-)
"Ay yo yo. Ay yo yo."
That's obviously an alligator (joke!) :3
The 9V era Croc is a GERMAN croc not the swiss one like the creator set and the new croc... its not scaled down dude. Its a ERG Class E94....
Look it up. Completely different loco
Thanks for info. Either way you cut it - it is still smaller. Dude.
@@BrickTsar Of coarse its smaller, its a completely different locomotive. I agree on the hobby train and the new croc comparison but the e94 doesn't belong. Its like comparing an opel kadett 2 door sedan and a trabant because they are both two door sedans.
Just do a Google search. There are other colors but brown is pretty prevalent.
Salut j'espère que tu va bien ? . J'ai regarder ta vidéo elle est vraiment très sympas . Moi j'ai lancer ma Chaîne TH-cam il y a peu . Si c'est possible de venir y faire un tour et me dire ce que tu en pense sa serrais vraiment sympas de ta part . A très vite j'espère
#nostickers
Take off the rubber bands, it will prevent derailing!
I didn’t have any problems with derailment. Is that a thing? The axles have to be lined up correctly. Check the instructions and make sure you got it lined up right. Maybe that’s causing the derailing? I’ll test mine more but so far it’s running good
the third is not a crocodile rather A br e 94
It’s a watch? I’m really confused.
Doors, hahahahaha!
I built one and I'm 10
#Nostickersifyoucan
9:57 the "Swiss Cross" is wrong! The sides must be all the same lenght! Now it lookgs like a big/fat boy... maybe he eaten to much chocolate... but hey, google it..
😭😭😭
I won't lie, I think the crocodile locomotives are kind of ugly, but man if Lego puts out more Expert Creator trains at the same price point I'll probably have to pick them up, even though I don't have motors or a real layout to run them on
I’ve always for new things even when I’m not crazy about them because that gives me hope
Video was mad but I think your attitude is a bit hostile. Felt quite uncomfortable at some points
Don’t know what you are talking about.
