Lego Summer



Summer! A word that not only means being off school but messing with my collection of Lego bricks. Today I will showcase my recent custom builds.





First of is the engine #12 snowplow. This snowplow is the remnant of a scrapped train that used to travel a former local rail line. The real snowplow is on display at a local museum along with engine #12's sister train, #11.





Before it was scraped into a snowplow, #12 was a proud Brooks engine that traveled up local rails carrying materials from the main line to a local mine and smelter. When the age of diesel came, #12 was scrapped into its current snowplow state.



The next vehicle is fictional but known the world over as...







... NX-01 ENTERPRISE

The hero ship of the T.V. show Star Trek: Enterprise, this ship was the first warp 5 vessel in the Trek universe and the precursor to the famed NCC-1701 ENTERPRISE.



Up next are a few more Trek ships that I came up with myself.






The M.A.C.O assault gunboat is a small heavily armed ship intended for defense of larger targets.





The U.S.S. GENEVA is a small medical ship that can provide ambulance service between disabled ships and large medical facilities.
Well that is my summer Lego content, enjoy!
