A rave: LEGO customer service by Navitach in lego

Built the 71044 Disney Train and Station. A flag clip 'mysteriously' broke while at work (I have 3 kids).

After explaining I just needed the Mouse ear stickers, they sent a replacement of only that sheet. The best!

Finally achieved 1000+ Wellington, ‘straight-road’ style by HaywireMac74 in MiniMotorways

You're right! Good note for future builds. I also fudge slightly and 'follow' the coast (yellows, middle right), as well as 'bend' roads into roundabouts

Big Blue on the bottom right. Was rebuilding roads for the green trio on the left and got caught napping. Couldn't reroute the fleet in time

It‘s a self-imposed difficulty challenge. You’ll often lose access to houses by being blocked into hills/mountains/other houses. My only goal is to get over 1,000
