(...) As an 8-wider, I am left feeling a bit flat. One of the biggest problems using 6-wide bases on 8-wide trains is the number of 1x(x) plates that are needed to fill in the gap, and the minimum thickness of the train's bases grows from 2 to 3 (...) (21 years ago, 8-Mar-05, to lugnet.trains)

Hi all, Well, I timed this just about right. I've actually been working on the idea for a bit, but with the new .build.vignette newsgroup, the recent great success of the vignette category in the classic-castle contest, and the spate of great (...)

(...) Personally I think you are being exactly that. Wishing that the Lego company does poorly is very selfish. I see very little good that can come from continued financial troubles and may serve to hurt existing and next generation Lego fans who (...) (21 years ago, 8-Mar-05, to lugnet.color)

A Motorised 2 axel truck with 3 stud wheel spacing. This is a custom modified 9v train motor. (URL) I've been toying with this idea for a while.

Leaving off the end isn't a bad idea! In my mind's eye I see the end terminate as any other single plate thickness. Great thinking! How about a 1x2 stud notch off the end too. This way if a pair are tight up against each other (or a 6xn plate is (...) (21 years ago, 8-Mar-05, to lugnet.trains)
