I absolutely love the color scheme, I also wanted to say that maxD could be the name of the smelting corporation and the metal man on the side could be there mascot which I could only think of the name Dense Orebert for there mascot's name. Also a interesting thought for a new train wagon could be a generator that has motion in it as it goes round casing things to spin in opposite directions as it goes down the track.

If there's room, you could put a flame piece in the spout to make it look like it's spewing out. Also, the orange rock monster from the Power Miners theme might be a nice addition to have on the car. Maybe he's broken it, trying to get the molten metal inside, and that's why it's spinning so fast.

The blue grey and yellow say space 🌌. So maybe this is an alien 👽 substance being transported by the ADU. Thanks for the inspiration and hard work at RHB headquarters😊.

Yay part 2 of the train build! 😀 I really like the build and colour scheme. One idea can you add some stickers to the main blue middle? Like to make one part look damaged like a crack or some more yellow hazard stripes. The speed is just right on the track.👍 Can you try fix the space hopper it was sooo cool, one of my favourite carriages?🤔 JJ F

Great build, I did a short stint up a blast furnace, site heath and safety was 3hrs before we started work. The last comment from the instructor was” if you’re going to fall off , please don’t land in one of the trucks full of hot red stuff, because you will mess up the mix!

I absolutely love the colour of this build, it really pops and looks very industrial, but maybe its just very new and that’s why it’s gleaming! Another fun train carriage that might be fun to build that could have a motorised function is a plane being transported on a carriage. The plane can be a single prop plane, where you could somewhere make the propeller spin with the movement of the train (totally unrealistic, but could be fun!) then it could also have the wings folded in on the side!

I did think of that but decided against it. The hoppers were bad enough for noise!

Robin, add a hatch on the thing, with a bar mounted on it, so the hatch could be opened. And they often melt old metal, into the new metal, so a scrapheap can easily be remelted into new metal. So MAX-D seems quite alright to me. Will you make another two such wagons? Or will you make a few wagons that carry a load of metal? As for your SCP prison wagon, put the money wagon next to it and a wagon in the Assassins Creed style, next to that one, where crime is going on. Now, where is your car transport wagon? I do expect you to have a wagon with a full truck, on it. Maybe with another, with a few cars. Do buy the Indiana Jones sets, Robin, then add a floor to your Museum. Then get Johnny Thunder and place him in, in a nice old school style car, near your Indiana, at the container terminal. That lets you put some other cargo on that truck trailer, already, connected to Johnny his adventure, that's just as dangerous. It even gives you a reason why it's there. It's part of the new museum exhibition on it's new second floor. Do look up the new Dreamzzz kits, Robin, I think you will like set number 71472. It's a good & stylish balloon. It really looks fun and I can see you adding it too your city, quite easily. Will you start to upgrade your space station? Both the expansion set for your station and the new station, might actually let you construct a new mid-section. It's that or pulling two side modules, in order to add in a new station module. As for a challenge, Robin, the Monkie Kid Cloudairship 80046, re-done as the TMNT airship. Part of the challenge is for you to find where they hide the damned thing, basically, where do the TMNT's, park? Say, have you really looked at the Hocus Pocus modular? Doesn't it look like a Barn? So with the gift-away wizarding house as part of a stable setup, with upper hay storage, the Medieval Blacksmith and so on.... Well, you could get a nice castle wall, right?

I think you need hazard stripes on the actual revolving barrel. I’m also surprised that you didn’t use any tread plate stickers on that either.

Not a bad idea!

For adding an extra axle per bogie, the side sway of the torpedo does not increase. The length of each bogie itself would then only increase by one stud compared to your current design because of the buffer connection. It would go a long way making the torpedo wagon looking less awkward and even more packed and stacked.

Thanks for the idea but OMG whaaat? Haha, I had no idea. Leave it with me but it sounds like a disaster. Actually it won't work with my current set-up as the tunnels and flexi track are both eight studs wide. It should theoretically work otherwise!

Another great wagon. The color scheme works perfectly with those little pops of yellow. Might be time to revisit the Technic Cam (Part 6575) for the hopper wagon. Or The curved lift arm (71708) if you can suspend the vertical axle a little was off the wheel axle and hit it with the curved part first.

The little cherry tree thing on that town set looked like an interesting way to use one of those leafy bits as a standalone type plant. Maybe a blue stripe level on the smaller section would look good? The extra level or two of plates should help the two parts look more distinct from each other for the fat vs tall comparison. That type of spinning motion is really satisfying. I dont mind the fast speed of the spin. Good catch on the space hopper, it would be tough to see the problem on the fly. Maybe a different mechanism would make the hopper more reliable but still give good motion?

Maybe a yellow hazard sticker running the length of the barrel one on each side so then there is a color break as it spins ?

Hey Mr. Robin hood I love your channel. You could put hazardous material stickers on the side of the torpedo container 1 on opposite sides of each cone piece. I think that would look great. Keep up the great work.

Space hoppers still my favourite! Well they were. 🙂

Love the build, but I still think that the bogeys need more wheels. Maybe on the inside? Or are there smaller train wheels available that could be used? .... And for the look: what about finding the oldest, most battered pieces for the torpedo? 🙂

You know the continuous spinning feature could be used if the metal in question was something like babot bering lead which is a mix of metals that can separate the purpose of the metals was to produce a low friction bering for shafts before roller berings were a common thing my 140 year old sawmill from frick of Waynesboro Pennsylvania currently has 16 of these cast lead berings on it equating to about 50lb of babot it probably had a couple more but its been modified from a friction feed mechanism to move the log carrage to belts a 1920s era advancement back when frick co was in busness and producing steam tractors,stationary threshing machines,stationary steam engines, industrial refrigerator units ,sawmills ,board edgers, lineshaft parts they probably went through a rail car of lead atleast every week

Suggestion: What if you used a fire piece on the spout to make it look like some of the metal is leaking in transit?

Great MOC Robin! When will be the next Lego city tour?

There is a error in this build as the boggies turn the spinning part will spin at a diffrent speed and because it’s connected on both ends it may derail as it will try to spin the other boggi you should make the spinning part only powered by one bogie

Very exciting to see my dark blue laddery ends making it into a build already! I love that they conveniently went with your colour scheme, and it is a very smart colour scheme in my opinion! I don't think it needs more stickers.

i think you’ve absolutely nailed it yet again! i do think it might need to slow down though

It looks great! If you would like to add more colour, you could try trimming the solid flame sticker from the sticker sheet & add to the light bluish grey stripe in the middle. Also, maybe a little flame coming from the spout (piece 64647 in trans orange could elude to the "MAXD destruction" which would result from a spinning & leaky spout of flames/sparks/molten metal lol)

What about using the thin orangey/flamey edge of the stickers as a strip on the turning drum to further accentuate the turning?

Loving this 😃 Amazing build, as always 👌

I love the color and the movement! I wonder if you could put the hazard stickers on the big blue pieces near the nozzle to make the movement more clear and maybe to warn workers so they don't miss pouring the metal in

I think this wagon is a bit too long, the drum spins a little too fast and I don't like the different wheels. Maybe 2x3 wheels would be nice? (If it fits in the tracks)....

You could gear it down to be slower

Your creativity is amazing! I was wondering which parts you used to connect the trains. Although I haven't bought a lego train in a while, I believe the newer train couplers have studs on them. You could use those in the front part of the train, and make them stronger with extra 2x1 flat tiles, so you can have longer/heavier trains
