hi
thx for answering my post =)
ok, the reasons you mentioned are right. maybe i'm not the one with the
most knowledege about lego. It was just becaus i wanted to
"electronically" play with the trainset =) (it's a little bit borig to build
only straight tracks =) ). Well to build other parts is also difficult
because i don't own real lego. I just didn't have when I was a child =) .
So if I want to modell an other part, I also need reference pictures. Maybe
there's an other thing which I can do. If you have an idea the tell me =) .
Or if you have any idea on how to get such good photos that i can modell
without having the real part ... .
well i have to go to bed now =)
Andreas
looking forward for the next track parts that i can continue building
scenes =)

| (...) The blue tracks are available in curves and cross. So you can use the blue track to run your virtual trains. Tore is working on the blue switches, just be patient. Niels Btw, is anybody planning to do the gray slotted cross? (22 years ago, 10-Dec-02, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)
