And as a follow-up question, could the 12 volt setting in theory be used to power the old 12 volt lighting bricks? (...) (23 years ago, 19-Oct-01, to lugnet.trains)

I have some spare LEGOs to build with, and I'll be digging for some wheels and (...) (23 years ago, 13-Oct-01, to lugnet.loc.us.ca.sf)
