| Dear LEGO Vehicle enthusiast, Ron Eaton and I, Eric McCarthy, have finished splitting up some Dacta community vehicle sets and are ready to sell some of them.

| | The winner of mux startup contest

| The winner for now is Paul Haas. He suggested using a channel that had an impossible value. So I scaled three of the channels for about 0 to 91 and forced one channel to be 100 all the time. The fix and better explaination are on the page now: (URL) (...) (26 years ago, 13-Nov-98, to lugnet.robotics)

| | Re: looking for review of 4555

| I have this set, and love it. It's not as good a value as the #2150 Train Station[1], even though they are the same price. Also, it is fragile, even for LEGO. So I guess I have to say: it's a really cool set, it has a lot of hard (or impossible) to (...) (26 years ago, 2-Dec-98, to lugnet.reviews)
