    ATSF Super Chief Project —Larry Pieniazek
   People that know me well, know that as a railfan I have been a fan of ATSF since I could spell it, almost 40 years ago. And I've been an Alco fan almost as long. When LEGO brought out 10020 I was overjoyed to see a warbonnet set, but I knew that as (...) (20 years ago, 30-Jan-05, to lugnet.announce.moc, lugnet.trains) !! 
   
        Re: ATSF Super Chief Project —Jan-Albert van Ree
     LOVE the new trucks (although as a European, cars without buffers just don't look 'right' :P ) , specially how you mimicked the springs, using another color to accent them even more. Will definately look into that in a next MOC. Also interior detail (...) (20 years ago, 30-Jan-05, to lugnet.trains)

     big Snippy ;-) It looks very good, very good. First impressions, its a very coherent design and looks bigger than it is (as I mentioned on Brickish). The truck design is nice, those are sections of technic ribbed hose for the springs? I like the (...) (20 years ago, 30-Jan-05, to lugnet.trains)

     (...) I've had the privilege of seeing some of the cars in person and they rock. Can't wait to see the engine in the flesh. -Tim (20 years ago, 31-Jan-05, to lugnet.trains)
   
        Re: ATSF Super Chief Project —John Barnes
     (...) Excellent work! Can't believe you can get the interior so right too! Most of my loco's are solid to the core. Stops them changing into a kit of parts when they accidently make it off the track and hit the floor. So what do I have to do to (...) (20 years ago, 31-Jan-05, to lugnet.trains)

     (...) er no, I mean 10025 and apparently that's an endemic error, it's in all my MOCpages stuff too (and the folder description on BL and etc...).... sigh. Sloppy sloppy. Chalk it up to excitement. For the record, no Bionicle parts were used in the (...) (20 years ago, 31-Jan-05, to lugnet.trains)

        Re: ATSF Super Chief Project —Steven Barile
     Great work Larry! Dito on everyone else's compliments! I'd love to see this one in real life. We got a GATS show on Feb 19th-20th if your looking for some long rails! Come on out and give it a spin in the Pacific Northwest! It's six wide friendly (...) (20 years ago, 31-Jan-05, to lugnet.trains)
    
         Re: ATSF Super Chief Project —Larry Pieniazek
     (...) Thanks Steve! I'd come in a heartbeat if I didn't already have a prior committment... MichLUG has a show that weekend so the consist will get some run time then. I may not get to SEE it though as I will be in NYC. (...) I think smack is not (...) (20 years ago, 1-Feb-05, to lugnet.trains)
   
        Re: ATSF Super Chief Project —Reinhard "Ben" Beneke
   (...) Hi Larry, I love the trucks of your Santa Fe coaches most- in fact a very cool invention! But please let me correct you in one point: Bruno's (=legocastle's) cars are not 8-wide. Those are definitely 6-wide and have been running at the (...) (20 years ago, 31-Jan-05, to lugnet.trains)
   
        Re: ATSF Super Chief Project —Larry Pieniazek
   (...) Not completely mine! lots of ideas from others there. (...) Cool. I could never get the builder to email me so I had to guess. But at 6 wide the trucks must stick out quite a bit. I had a version copied and I just didn't like how much bulge (...) (20 years ago, 1-Feb-05, to lugnet.trains)
