# Train Buffer


This train buffer is a homage to the train buffer LEGO used in the
[7777](http://lego.brickinstructions.com/lego_instructions/set/7777/Trains_Ideas_Book) ideas book.

I used some newer LEGO pieces, but tried to capture the old look. Also hope this is sturdy enough to
actually stop a train.
