| | Re: 10219 Maersk Container train set
|
| (...) Well, there *is* a very practical reason to run some stuff 8 wide. An 8 wide hopper is big enough that you can put last year's cheap Halloween candy in it, and let kids carefully grab some from the train. Either let them get it from the slowly (...)

| (...) John is right about the dimensions of containers compared to train rolling stock. We at the (URL) PennLUG Institute for LEGO Intermodal Studies> have confirmed this and come up with our (URL) own standard> of 6 and 7 wide containers to fit our (...)

| (...) I wonder if the price will be jacked up higher than typical train sets? Comparing to the container ship price increase this year, I might expect it. None-the-less, I really like this set and would consider multiples depending on price as well. (...) (14 years ago, 24-Jan-11, to lugnet.trains, FTX)

| (...) Whoa! That is awesome. That engine is epic, the Maersk color scheme rocks on a train. Even the flatbed cars look great, and I normally don't care for flatbeds. This will look good along my BNSF and... ahem... Enlighten brand Union Pacific. I (...) (14 years ago, 23-Jan-11, to lugnet.trains, FTX)

Put a trigger on the side of the train that opens up the hopper as it goes (...) (14 years ago, 25-Jan-11, to lugnet.trains)

| (...) Now don't be silly. One just has to MOD the new containers down to classic 4 wide standard Lego shipping containers. Just like one has to MOD the Maersk container ship's containers up to 4 wide standard to fit in a classic town/train harbor (...) (14 years ago, 26-Jan-11, to lugnet.trains, FTX)

After all the flat beds and yard-tractor (truck) aren't significantly more than the tender and dinning (...) (14 years ago, 26-Jan-11, to lugnet.trains, FTX)

| (...) Containers are about 8' wide. A loco is generally about 10' wide. That's a ratio of 4:5. The ratio of 6 wide to 8 wide is 3:4, but that is certainly more plausible than 1:1 (6 wide to 6 wide). And I mention again for emphasis: the cars and (...)

You really can't have locomotives being the same width as a container, or a bus or a police car, for that matter! But I do not pretend to understand their loco (...)
