| Those videos are amazing! The long curves really put realism to the train. It looked like the train leaned into the curve a litte. Did you add a high pivot point, so that it would lean into the curve? Very nice setup and awesome train! Scott (16 years ago, 29-Jan-09, to lugnet.trains, FTX)

| Will the wheels be a drop-in replacement for BBB large wheels? This is grade-A quality, and the train set we've been waiting for since 4.5V. Of course, now we'll expect similar miracles of the new PF train-specific parts. :) -Stefan- (16 years ago, 18-Feb-09, to lugnet.general, lugnet.trains)
