  Re: RailBricks Issue 1
 
(...) <snip> How ironic to launch on the day when 9V is declared dead... Still I'm happy to see the release of the first issue. I've been looking forward to it ever since I spotted the first picture on Brickshelf back in April. Does this mean the (...) (17 years ago, 1-Oct-07, to lugnet.publish, FTX)
 
  Re: RailBricks Issue 1
 
(...) 9V is not dead, believe me. In my club, some guys exhibits large 12V layouts!! TLC discontinue 9V, but the community for sure will support it for long. (...) Thank you very much for your interest. (...) I hope so. I can't say for sure it will (...) (17 years ago, 1-Oct-07, to lugnet.publish, FTX)
 
  Re: RailBricks Issue 1
 
(...) All I can really say is...WOW! A whole E-Zine dedicated to LEGO Trains! I've been waiting for something like this for a few years now and it's finally a reality. The first issue looks amazing. I have to admit I haven't had a chance to properly (...) (17 years ago, 2-Oct-07, to lugnet.publish, FTX)
 
  Re: RailBricks Issue 1
 
(...) Thanks for putting this together. I sat down last night and read it cover to cover. I really enjoyed the articles that discussed building techniques and ideas, and it was fun to see a layout article done Model Railroader style. Looking forward (...)

  Re: RailBricks Issue 1
 
(...) Wow - I love the idea of using caterpillar/tank type track pieces for the sides of modern American car carriers as seen on page 31!! :-O If I still had a train layout, I would borrow that design and go on a spending spree on Blink to build at (...)

(...) I'm sure that Jeramy would have loved to make this announcement himself, but he's a little busy right now... Congratulations to Jeramy on the birth of his first child on October 1st! It's a girl! David Gregory (17 years ago, 3-Oct-07, to lugnet.off-topic.fun, FTX)

(...) Congrats, Jeramy! And so the journey begins.... FYI I'm available 24/7 for advice on dealing with first-born daughters:-) JOHN (17 years ago, 3-Oct-07, to lugnet.off-topic.fun, FTX)
 
  Re: RailBricks Issue 1
 
(...) Hi Ronald! Thanks for the compliments. It may seem a bit ironic that the release of the first issue coincided with the 9V announcement, but it was by accident, really. I had planned to launch the magazine two weeks ago, but was then asked to (...) (17 years ago, 3-Oct-07, to lugnet.publish, FTX)

And to Jeremy and the Think Tank for the idea of the PDF distribution, their perserverance, and sheer publishing (...) (17 years ago, 4-Oct-07, to lugnet.publish, FTX)
 
  Re: RailBricks Issue 1
 
(...) Has anybody tried this yet? What's the quality like? What kind of paper? Is it like a magazine, or more like what I'd get printing it at home on an inkjet? (17 years ago, 16-Oct-07, to lugnet.publish, FTX)
 
  Re: RailBricks Issue 1
 
(...) I thought quality was very good for the BrickJournal issues I got printed. Tommy Armstrong (17 years ago, 16-Oct-07, to lugnet.publish, FTX)
 
  Re: RailBricks Issue 1
 
(...) I received my copy from lulu.com last week. The printing is definitely on par with magazine quality. And well worth the price to hold a copy on your hands. Jeramy and the rest of the staff did an awsome job putting RailBricks together. Cale (17 years ago, 16-Oct-07, to lugnet.publish, FTX)
 
  Re: RailBricks Issue 1
 
(...) Lulu. com is pretty nice. The paper stock is a thicker matte stock than magazine stock, and the cover is a cover (thicker) stock. The print quality is very nice, much better than inkjet. Joe (17 years ago, 16-Oct-07, to lugnet.publish, FTX)
 
  Re: RailBricks Issue 1

I am looking forward to seeing more fantastic interviews with some of the communities great train folks. Good luck and thanks (...) (16 years ago, 15-Nov-07, to lugnet.publish, FTX)
 
  Re: RailBricks Issue 1
 
I'll say: I'm impressed. Really. A lot! Fantastic issue - my congratulations. Though I fear my kids and my lack of spare time will cut short any effort to achieve similar building success, I like a lot of the ideas I am getting from this issue. (...)
