  Re: LPub gone AWOL?
 
(...) Cool. :) For some reason, LPub is displaying no text at all (no button captions, labels, etc - (URL) Probably has something to do with me using WINE on it. Would it be possible to have a Linux version, perhaps.. ? (15 years ago, 2-Dec-09, to lugnet.cad)

  Re: Converting an Emerald Knight to run on 9 volt track
 
(...) Good question, Ted. That is what Ross did with the old 4.5 motor block-- he simply cut the ends off of a 4.5 volt wire and a 9 volt wire, spliced them together, and ran the 4.5 motor off of the power from the 9 volt train motor. JOHN (15 years ago, 30-Nov-09, to lugnet.trains, FTX)
