The brief

TrinityRail wanted customers to take a piece of its business home from rail industry trade shows. Its marketing team approached us with a specific idea: turn two of its freight cars into custom brick kits. The brief called for a covered hopper and a tank car, with the company’s distinctive TILX markings part of the identity.

We developed the pair as a small collection built from original LEGO® elements. The hopper and tank car have very different shapes, so each needed its own approach. Their shared track bases connect the models visually and give both a place to stand after assembly. The product itself becomes the focus of the giveaway.

We also prepared separate assembly instructions for the two designs. That matters for a customer gift: the recipient can spend time putting together the very equipment the company builds and leases. The collection brings a familiar part of freight transport down to desk scale, keeping the connection to TrinityRail’s business at the center of the experience.
