February 24, 2002: Lunar Tour Vehicle

Part bus, part spacecraft, this vessell meets up with the Passenger Transport in Earth orbit and ferries them to the moon, where they can spend a week visiting the Apollo landing zones and other historical and natural wonders.

Its rockets pivot aft for flight, and downward for takeoff and landing. Inside are all the luxuries a traveler could want, plus facilities for the crew. A generous galley and head are included.

This uses the Docking System I devised for spacecraft.

Another repost…

January 16, 2002: Yellow Hopper Truck

This truck is for carrying sand, gravel, LEGO bricks, or similar material. A door in the bottom opens to allow dumping. I later rebuilt the trailer to produce a second version of this model.

This little cafe showed off some rare printed bricks and was good at filling small spaces on the BayLTC layouts.

Tuesday, July 24th, 2007

This building was one of my first contributions to the BayLTC train layout, and the first one that I posted pictures of online.

This bus station has a waiting room and two lanes for buses to stop. There is also a traffic signal and cellular telephone relay tower included.
