(...) John's the king...he got the sealed 6806 and 6807, too, I believe. He would have been able to get it for $1200 or so (about five bucks over my max) were it not for some no-namer who dropped a $2222 bid at the last minute. John's original bid (...)

(...) Nope, for example set 725 is a blue rails 12V set and set 7722 is a grey rails 4.5V set. I guess the guide uses 'did the set ship with conducting pieces' as basic rule if a set is a 12V or a 4.5V set. By that rule all push-train sets (7710 for (...)

(...) Maybe re: this set, we can goad John (who posts on LUGnet regularly) to tell us something about it once he has it in hand? That's an amazing set, one I'd surely never seen before. best LFB (24 years ago, 14-Mar-01, to lugnet.loc.uk, lugnet.market.auction, lugnet.admin.database)

I think there were also some grey 4.5V rails (someone else will know for sure), but if they're blue they're definitely 4.5V ROSCO Jennifer L.

7834 is 12V since it has the conductor rails, but by removeing them them it becomes 4.5V. On the other hnad 7823 does have cunductor rails (in the middle), os it 4.5V. By added them it becomes 12V. Quite simple Sonnich Jennifer L. Boger (...) (24 years ago, 13-Mar-01, to lugnet.admin.database)
