(...) I've got a number of 4.5v/12v sleeper that have lost their clips (the little vertical pieces that click into the track), so Im' not wild about going back to that kind of track. If the design could be fixed, so the part that holds onto the (...) (19 years ago, 7-Oct-07, to lugnet.trains)

(...) Hi Ben, I do not see so much need for a full system: the biggest need is for straight track and possibly new curve radius. The aftermarket will offer used 9V switches for the next 20 years. Some people will switch to the new battery trains. (...) (19 years ago, 7-Oct-07, to lugnet.lego, FTX)

  A very odd instruction booklet error
 
I just finished building the Republic Cruiser (mmm, R2-R7...so tasty) and I spotted a really weird goof in the second instruction booklet. If you turn to page 65, in the bottom picture, there is something which is very clearly neither one of the new (...) (19 years ago, 7-Oct-07, to lugnet.starwars)
