LEGO Special Collectors 10194 - Emerald Night

Product Information

In 2018, Lego introduced a new Power Functions system, known as Powered Up, or Power Functions 2.0. This system was brought to replace the old Power Functions brought about in 2007. This system was introduced with the Passenger Train (set number: 60197) and the Cargo Train (set number: 60198). In 2019, the Disney Train was released, with the motorised elements in the tender. In 2020, the Lego Crocodile Locomotive was released, designed to be motorised with Powered Up Large Motor, not the usual train motor. In June 2022 LEGO introduced the Express Passenger Train (set number: 60337) and Cargo Train (set number: 60336), also powered by Powered Up, which features the ability of the train to be controlled via Bluetooth and a smartphone app. Would dark green have been better? Perhaps, but then 10194 Emerald Night was dark green so using it again was unlikely. I had to drill small holes into the all-plastic double cross over total fail thing:, remove the bottom covers, throw out the levers, add nylon wire encased in original(!) LEGO flex tubing and - now it works. Is the anything wrong in turning a fail original part into a custom working part? Guess not. Following the Emerald Night, the new 88002 Power Functions-compatible train motor and controller were introduced in two 2010 sets, the 7938 Passenger Train and 7939 Cargo Train. This new motor utilized the universal Power Functions connections, used by all components. The standardization of the Power Functions system meant that any of the motors in the Power Functions line could be used and builders were not limited to using a single type of motor as they had been with previous Lego train systems.

However, in my opinion, this model takes detail and realism to a whole new level, elevating it from a being just toy train to a model worthy of display anywhere in the house, which is what LEGO intended.There are several things that can drive up the price of a set. Rarity will do it every time, which includes having its production run cut short and leaving a lot of people scrambling to get their hands on a copy before it's sold out. If the theme is very popular, it can drive prices up just due to completists chasing anything they're missing. If the set is a really popular design, it can go up in price on its own merits. And, because these are all boxes of LEGO parts, rare parts can have a weird and unpredictable influence on set prices. Sometimes a rare part will drive the set price up accordingly, and sometimes the part in question can actually sneak up unnoticed and end up costing more than the set it comes in (I've actually just found two examples of this recently). For some reason there is no gap under the rails and the sleepers, which are formed of dark brown 1x4 tiles between the rails and 1x1 plates on the outside, do not go underneath them. Nevertheless, it looks OK. Fill out an Inventory Change Request ( ?) [ Show Inv Item IDs ] if you found an error in this inventory. The model is based on a Swiss Ce 6-8 Krokodil electric locomotive, which are so called because of the long 'noses' at each end. They were built around 1920 and three preserved examples are in still use on heritage lines in Switzerland. They are iconic in continental Europe, where several similar designs were used in other countries, but perhaps not so much in North America and the UK. The 37.5mm length is not derived by a certain scale ratio. While HO scale is a 1:87 scale (3.5mm to 1foot), resulting in a 16.5mm ( 0.65in) gauge from real life prototype 1,435mm ( 4ft 8 + 1⁄ 2in) standard gauge. Conversely, modeling standard gauge into Lego trains would require a scaling of (37.5:1435=) circa 1:38. With this scale, a minifigure (height 4 centimetres (1.6in)) in real life size would be 1.52 metres (5ft 0in).

As Jamie Berard explained in our interview with him, LEGO is hoping that it will appeal to adults who are not AFOLs, but who are looking for something quirky to display, as well as LEGO train fans. That said, it is my biased hope that this is the beginning of a new, regular line of elegantly-designed Expert-level, "18+" train sets. And if the history with the Technic supercars can teach us anything, it's that the next trains will be even more impressive and desirable, leaving this one (as pioneering and wonderful as it is) in the proverbial dust, desirable really only to completists. Actually the official name of the colour was "ozeanblau" (plus accents in "creme/Elfenbein" which was sort of a mixture between tan and light yellow), a colour not found in the LEGO range of colours. The next best thing would be dark blue. Lego Specifications". Orionrobots.co.uk. 26 February 2011. Archived from the original on 23 August 2011 . Retrieved 30 August 2022.

But I am glad we got this review well in advance of the release date! I am impressed, and convinced I need to build some elevated "electric" lines over my rails so this Crocodile Locomotive can run as intended!" The design of Lego trains has developed substantially, with several different systems introduced, with varying degrees of cross-compatibility. For comparison, the 10277 Crocodile uses a straight 1:1 gear ratio with a Powered Up Large motor and the same size driver wheels. There's enough demand for 2 trainsets (one freight, one passenger) and maybe one more freight in a 4 year period. They're too expensive for much more than that.

This is also the first train to have the new "large train wheels", four of them moulded with a flange and two of them moulded blind. The flanged wheels include a rubber band for traction when the Power Functions motor is installed. The blind wheels are made so the train can navigate standard LEGO curves.

Look, the simple fact of the matter is: pretty as the Emerald Night may be, it isn't a particularly good representation of a steam locomotive. Just because it's better than the outright swill that Lego typically passes off for steam engines doesn't make it good in general - just in a relative sense. Given the price tag attached even when it was new, I took one look at the thing and started giggling. But I guess people are enamored of bright colors or something. Plus, I think only one German Crocodile (class E94 / 194) was ever painted in the ozeanblau - elfenbein livery. Richard Stollery (1 October 2007). "Lego 9V Train Communication". Lego Group . Retrieved 13 January 2009. Still doesn't mean that any serious redesign would be required. Not at all. Swapping those few bits out is super easy. Especially with the updated 6x28 baseplate with it's larger holes for the Power Functions connectors.The noses are 7-wide with a narrower 5-wide upper section. The two 2x4 tiles on the front looks a bit awkward but does appear to be roughly prototypical. At 45cm long this is the longest locomotive LEGO has produced and I think it looks excellent. The brown livery looks understated and sophisticated and, as Jamie said to us during our interview, it's a colour that is often overlooked and doesn't see as much use in LEGO sets as perhaps it should.
