(...) lol, okay, I think I understand now-- I just didn't consider tweaking an existing logo as actually new. But fair enough.

Earlier this year, in time for the layout at the Manassas Railway Festival, members of the Washington, D.C. Metropolitan Area LEGO® Train Club (WamaLTC), WAMALUG's SIG for train operations, decided on a new logo. While not copying any railroad (...) (22 years ago, 14-Oct-02, to lugnet.trains.org.wamaltc)

On the idea of losing the buffers... I'm a newbie to the Train comunity since I just had to get the 4561 on sale for my son for x-mass. Has anyone considered making a boogie car? One set of trucks w/two piviot points for two cars. I've seen these (...) (23 years ago, 30-Nov-00, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.trains.org.wamaltc)

(...) Oops, my bad. I didn't know that box cars came extra tall. I don't think you could make it any shorter and call it a highcube. It looks like is is 8 bricks and 1 plate tall (counting the 2 plate tall baseplate). A standard LEGO box car with (...) (23 years ago, 29-Nov-00, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.trains.org.wamaltc)

(...) Tom, your new creations are cool. I like the waffle pattern. I think I can imagine how the wheels slide on your 44 ton loco. That's a nice solution, and I look forward to seeing details of it.

I agree the black is hard to photograph :( With the Waffle side car, I was going for an excess height highcube look (URL) . It's supposed to be taller tan a regular box car, but did I go too tall? The funny blue may be due to my cheap camera :( I'm (...) (23 years ago, 28-Nov-00, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.trains.org.wamaltc)
