Hi everybody, please read the message below I rarely watch this group But i am amazed by the pictures, but the following things puzzle me 1. Since when those DB stickers come back? I thought they belong to the 12V not to 9V 2. Look at 4450 Right at (...) (26 years ago, 31-Mar-00, to lugnet.general) !

Awe man, good call! Yep, forget it. It is a hoax (April fools joke, as someone pointed out). And it's probably one of the best I've seen. The telltale sign for me is that you can see the around the edges of the text and models, where the images were (...) (26 years ago, 31-Mar-00, to lugnet.general)

(...) Too many things point to it being a hoax, IMO. Also, While the quality is low, whoever made it, tried to make it as real as possible. The Train Logo is way too clear, while the Lego Logo is way too fuzzy... Jeff (26 years ago, 31-Mar-00, to lugnet.trains) !

Hi. Does anyone have an idea for keeping the lego pieces together without glueing them for good? Some of my designs fall apart where there are only a few "holes and stems" holding them together. Thanks. (26 years ago, 31-Mar-00, to lugnet.robotics)

Maybe we're spending too much time on the quality of the graphics. Lets look at the sets themselves. Where would those wheels on the 4460 and the gray wheels on the 4432. And the doors and windows on the passenger cars on the 4450? Those are awesome (...) (26 years ago, 31-Mar-00, to lugnet.trains) !

I'd also have to question the description of set 4479: "Güterwaggons 2 offenen und 2 gedeckte Frachtwaggons mit Lademeistern" My German might be a little rusty, but the plural of open in this particular case is "offene" and not "offenen" I'm still (...) (26 years ago, 31-Mar-00, to lugnet.general)
