I also have an MRC Tech II (I think that's the model). When you use it wit your trains do you keep "pulse" on? This is what make slow speeds possible but may also cause the extra noise. SteveB (...) in (...) long (...) (25 years ago, 17-Sep-99, to lugnet.trains)

(...) That's interesting -- the Star Wars sets could have survived without orange. The rebel pilots would have looked a bit odd, but that would have been the worst. (...) Maybe we need an anonymous rumornet for lego? Steve (25 years ago, 17-Sep-99, to lugnet.general)

(...) Yes you can do exactly that. I have it done somewhat like that for my setup right now. (there are some RS switchs for control before the layout, housed in a lego box). (...) The only problem I have is that the motors are noiser with the MRC (...) (25 years ago, 17-Sep-99, to lugnet.trains)

  Update1 : Commuter train (WIP)
 
Well, I stayed up late and scrounged enough white windows to complete bothe ends and vestibule! There is now some head lights and roof detail. I'll take some pics once the wheels are in place. I'm sure that will take some work. SteveB Steven Barile (...) (25 years ago, 17-Sep-99, to lugnet.trains)

  Minifig Box #2
 
I've got between 75-100 minifigs and probably three times that amount of accessories that I would be happy to make into a Minifig box #2. It seems the list for box #1 is quite long and it would be a while before it gets to the end of the current (...) (25 years ago, 17-Sep-99, to lugnet.market.jambalaya)

  Re: Halloween buckets in 1999?
 
I didn't get details but these are my thoughts: My understanding is that George Lucas had (and still has) a lot of say about the StarWars product. It is conceivable that he wanted to see how the color orange produced prior to the release of the (...) (25 years ago, 17-Sep-99, to lugnet.general)
