(...) Lar, I totally agree with you. Light gray for the conducting rails is not right, and it should not be made the official color. I was thinking about changing the metal rails to the color of the conducting wheels. However, I can think of two (...) (23 years ago, 13-Jun-01, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.trains)

All, I have been messing around with MLCad to create some models and rendering them out with POVRay. I have wanted to improve the rendering quality, so I downloaded the LGEO library. Using L3PAddOn to create POV file, I was able to make a rendering, (...) (23 years ago, 13-Jun-01, to lugnet.cad.ray)

So the other electrical parts modeled in LDraw also use yellow. But IIRC it is a special yellow (...) (23 years ago, 12-Jun-01, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.trains)
