(...) I missed the notice of these the first time, but have had a look now. Fantastic! This man has a career in mechanical engineering. Makes me want to assemble my 8448 to see how the original's roof works. (25 years ago, 14-Mar-00, to lugnet.technic, lugnet.build)

In fact, it does actually hold together, and works just as I (...) (25 years ago, 14-Mar-00, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.build)

(...) Once. The second time, you'll probably get booted off of Lugnet, per the posting agreement that you signed. (URL) folks, most of us fell in love with Lego as kids. Therefore, kids visit Lugnet.
