LEGO Train fans! The time has finally come! It is time for our hobby to build to the correct scale of LEGO track, which is 1:38, or as I call it: L-Gauge Proto (LGP). It is easily referenced as 1 stud to 1 foot, or, in width parlance: 10wide. 20 years ago, I advocated for 8wide, and now, like the Jeffersons, I’m moving on up! It makes sense now, given the plethora of 3rd party suppliers, 3D printing technology, and the general acceptance of non-LEGO (impurity!) elements in LEGO train MOCs. The TCLTC has decided to debut this idea by presenting our upscaled version of the Brick Model Railroader NMRA caboose. We are busily creating more LGP MOCs, and hope that all you other fine, LEGO train builders join us, in order to create the most awesome LEGO train MOCs possible!

(...) Hi John! Long time since I last time read/heard of you. Your 10w caboose looks great. Next I wanted to see a BigBoy engine pulling this and some dozen "SCHLEIM"-tanker cars in between... :-) Keep us old Lugnetters updated, please + Leg Godt! (...)
