Do another one but this road/rail module has a curve track

You help Lego with this shitty system of roades, you are such a fanboy that buys every shit
@@David-ke6gx don’t be mean he tried his best
@@TonyGuan0 Did u understand what i tried to say, he buys that shit of streets and supports lego
"Above ground subway..." - did you mean to say tram? lol
Propably
Wel no, the subway can also be above ground, but then they are called elevated trains I belive
Called “light rail” here.
In my hometown we have underground "light rail" and tram and all three can go over / under or on the street
The subway "mostly" runs underground
The light rail travels mostly above the ground between 2 cities but also underground
and the tram sometimes goes underground, but only if it is a 2-way wagon with doors on both sides ....
by the way, "official declaration" from our public transport provider!!!!! ;)
@@colinblaas3592 If it doesn't go below the ground, it's not a subway.
This is a good example to demonstrate that infrastructure construction is expensive.
how can this deal with curves? ive never seen anyone who makes smooth curves.
I think it’s best to avoid them. Try and stick with a city grid.
@@NittanyNation22 He means train curves, they need to turn around eventually
@@4duanich Yes, that's a good point. Seems obvious once you mention it.
@@4duanich can't you just use curved tiles?
You could make the curves like under a bridge or mountain or something where you don’t really see it.
Great Idea if money don´t matter... :)
Could you do this but for turn/curve in the road and Track?
This is quite impossible 🙅♂️
@@uguburo-minecraft2668 well no.. but it makes things more complicated for sure
@@misterjerofficial youd probably have to use a lot of wedges or something for that, but it may be possible
A guy made a corner out of an L-shape using wedges. Surely that could be upscaled
Nice but it looks like the first train that rolled though would take out every vehicle in the lane next to the track lol. You need to move the tracks one row over away from the lane to give enough room. great job all the dame though. :-)
Great idea and very nice effect! I might make two changes for my own layouts... offset the 2x4 tiles by 2 studs (ie. 2x2, 2x4, ..., 2x4, 2x2) so that cross-walks line up, and use unprinted 8x16 roadplates so that I can move the tram track into the middle (European style). Thanks!
I like that idea!
This is awesome. I use this system in my display too allthough for a small freightyard but at the same time at the other side some greenery and space for bicycles and pedestrians
I noticed the rail tracks in the street on your latest city tour. Really great of you to show us how you did it. Thanks a bunch!
Of course, thanks for watching!
Wow that's cool, it's soo clean
This here has solved the problem of me having my trains on my layout with my modulars.a little bit of street running.thankyou.😀👍
Clever AND straightforward. An excellent method of integration.
Thank you! Glad you like it 🙌🏼
very cool
Brilliant!!!! Thank you very much!!
OMG, that is so cool.
Great tips, my son and i are going to start our own little city soon, we're gonna do more of a fantasy mixed with reality scene so we will need roads that look real like this, i can't wait lol, my son is just getting old enough where he likes Legos and i think i get more excited then he does haha
So awesome…
nice idea
Brilliant
Cool!
this is very good idea and I'm come to use it :)
SICK, imma definitely do this
Thank you!
Wow!!! Thanks! I want to do that for MY LEGO city!
No problem, thanks for watching!
A lego street running train track system. Cool
Wow!
I like the fog line/gutter.
Hi, new here!! Great system, and it looks awesome. I will be upgrading my city to this, but need to know if you try already with the curve tracks and how to deal with that. Thanks.
The road like a miror
I love the new lego roads
Do you think about using MILS plates in your city?
Not everyone has this amount of tiles and plates, but this looks really cool!
That’s really cool
Thanks!
All fun and games until a corner shows up
Good thing our city is on a grid 👌🏼
This would be a great way to try and recreate the track that go down Walt Disney World Main Street in Magic Kingdom
Great video im new to this im attempting to build a city with my son , do you have a video using the same size baseplate with the tracks running directly in the center of the baseplate?
nice
Hey, Thank you so much this video helped me out alot
Glad it helped!
Very nice solution. I was looking for this tutorial on your website, but the only one i could find, looks different. Are there 2 different instructions of Lego City Road to buy on your website? Do you have a direct link?
What about the transition tracks and curve? Im very interested now lol :))
Toronto trams. my favorite
On the first sight really attractive looking street but then I could not blend out gaps between plates. All looks to me rather a bit clunky that was not the case in the previous plate system. The other think is that one needs to winden the street with additional bricks to make it usable for the current vehicle lineup. In my opinion it is just sad. On the good side my vintage like 6693 or 6645 sets are actually still good for this width ;)
Thumb nail looks sick
Hey ! Could you please share the reference of the first dark gray brick you use ? the one with 4 squares at the back...
So this is compatible with modular buildings right?
And a turn to right / left with the road and railway ? Could you make one as example ??
Could you guys do a road plate with a curved rails ?
We have a LEGO tram line in our LEGO City and we use also the new LEGO road plate system for that. This new LEGO road plate system is not that bad!
Solo city build in lego😍
Great video(s)! But I'm actually joining many others with the question about curved tracks building-in. It looks like this questions has never been answered :))
I just don't think it's possible to do neatly. You can do curves with the new roads, you can do nicely ballasted train curves, combining them not so much
Hi there, Love the Video you did here & in the Video you said there is a parts list for this on your website , i went & had a look & found the Double Lane road but nothing on your website about this one you did here , hope to hear back soon as i'm going to be using this in my city layout but need a parts list please so i can order parts i dont have :)
Hi! We have the more complex build on our website (the one with the median) this was just a simple build showing you the technique for the tracks, the brick list is pretty easy! Let me know if you have any questions about a specific part you are unsure of
@@AFOLTV i'm a person with a disabitily & would love to get a parts list for this one you did here & space is limited or i would just get the plans off your website
6:00 You just lay in these long "snotted" parts (horizontally rather than vertically) without attaching them by jumpers or special SNOT bricks?
Do they still make 32x32 gray baseplates? Can't find any, anywhere
This is like the Luas in Dublin
How do you intergrate curve tracks into the road??
What do you think about our MILS plates?
How much money you have to spend to build one of this road plates ?
straight up a single base plate with these kind of pieces, $120 at most
The new road system may have its drawbacks but this shows definitely its great strenghts. It opens the streets to so much potential creativity instead of being stuck with a rigid print template.
Does the tram run well on the tracks cover?
Love this! How could this be incorporated into MILS? Specifically, if one were looking to make a road that is 8 studs wide or so for Speed Champions cars?
wondering this myself
So, the roadplates are already higher than the sidewalks for modulars and now that you made the road plates even higher (baseplate + 2x4 tiles below, what did you do to compensate for that with your modular buildings. They look higher. Overall 1000% stoked to use this method in my city, just not sure how you raised your buildings up.
Thanks for making such a brilliant video and keep it up!
Easy - just place them on another baseplate with plates below! (Unsecured) but it’s a great way to raise modulars already built to street level
@@AFOLTV Hmmm or maybe build the modular on 2 "baseplates" from strictly bricks that you showed in another video?...I am so rebuilding my modular buildings 1st floor to use the strickly bricks "Baseplates" Keep up the great work, love all your stuff. Just brilliant work!
How do you deal with the curves 🤔
do you have a part list for it?
awesome idea but in real life, are there train tracks on the road? or is it just for trams?
hey..I am trying to find that special road tile 16x16, but can't find it anywhere...can someone advise the name of that piece? or a link or something? thanks
Wow amazing road design, but it requires a lot of parts for only one part of a road
How do you do a curve track?
This is unironically, a road.
Try doing UK road markings?
We are in the USA 😄
How would a MILS plate work on that?
Seems a little more expensive than the previous system. But more possibilities maybe.
Are you going to add this to your website or no because if this was on instructions it would be wayyyyy easier
Or you can ask them to make this a Lego set
This is really cool!!! I never saw dark grey 32x32 base plates
Thank you! They exist haha
@@AFOLTV ok, if I see one il be sure to get some. I am actually starting a Lego City so your videos are really helping out!!!
Awesome! Send pics of your city to our insta and we’ll share on our story if they include our builds!
@@AFOLTV sure, I don't have Instagram but i will try to send them if I include your builds.
@@TheBlueskydriver ok i will see
Subscribing now. Will modulars sit below street level using this system, and how do you get around it?
Thanks! I don’t build with a lot of modulars, usually build my own designs. That said, of the modulars I do build, I build them on a ‘platform’ of 4 16x16 plates and raise it to the street level. You can layout the footprint of the build, bring it to level, then build the rest
@@AFOLTV that’s brilliant. Thanks. 👍👍
What about curved sections?
Add a tram!
Thats it! it would be 80$ :D
The problem I’m having is how do you instal a Switch Track without ballasting the track? This system works great until you want to add a switch while keeping it even with road. You’d have to put 2x plates under the road plate then the curbs become 1 plate high rather then two and everything gets screwed up.
If anybody can explain to me how to add Train Track Switch into a mil plate while keeping road even with track and 1x plate under road plate I’d much appreciate it, thanks.
Was wondering if u just had the parts list bc i dont need the instructions
A turn for the rail?
try doing super fast monorail with lego, mag- or air-lev, or just plain rubber wheel lev, airplanes on sticks
electricity traveling through the track, only the motor through induction loops carrying the current, you might just also do a basic rubber wheel under-above-powerline train
ground effect hovercars, pressurized air turbine floater cars, over the plates
What about a curve road track?
a custom lego tram(a train that drives on the road)
Great what’s the element number for the large plates ?
It’s the new LEGO City Road Plates
Is it possible to get a parts list?
*@AFOL TV* großartige Idee! Danke dafür endlich ein gute Lösung für mich!
This kinf of new options for different types of road with new road system is great, like your great street with track. But I am still not convince of buying and using new road systems.... I just cannot stand the ugly ZigZag shape of the biggest part... I don't know... I still think, make a road with classic tiles would looks better. I know about the value/money... But still, cannot help myself, new road system looks like Junior Lego... Maybe, AFOL community can make it works, as you show us, but this is big MINUS for Lego from me...
Can you do a tutorial on how you buy your bricks?
We use Bricklink.com!
1. Buy lego sets at your favorite store or online.
2. Buy new lego parts at lego.com (limited number of new parts and long delivery)
3. Pick-A-Brick wall at most lego stores (very limited number of new parts)
4. Buy at second hand markets
5. Buy parts at bricklink.com (unlimited old and new parts and maybe long delivery)
6. Check buy and sell LEGO groups at facebook?
7. Search ebay.
An alternative option is to be a member of a local LEGO user group (LUG) (adults only) they might have some good idears.
LEGO will never be cheap but look for good prices online.
Could you do a curved track this way? And if you could, how would you?
Waiting for LEGO to come out with a curved version of the new road plates! (Rumored to potentially be in the works)
Brilliant!
Thanks!
What base plate is that? Is there a parts list for this road setup?
32x32 - no parts list, since it's a pretty simple group of parts
Sehr schön geworden 👍 die straßen haben Potential
You need more subs. 😀
Is it useable
put train to that rail
you have earned my respect
It’s fascinating to watch you build this road, but it seems to me to be a lot of time, money and brick for a road. I’m gonna have to pass on this due to my budget. Nice job though.
What is the name of that road peace
Great video! Subbed :D
Thank you!!
I wonder, why the extra 2x2 studs beneath the railroad tracks? The 4x8 plates that are placed between the rails could just rest on the rails IIRC...
Eh just extra support - I hate when plates flex because they aren’t supported below
@@AFOLTV ah, thought it had to be something like that ;-)
