   (...) Oooooh, can we bring our own trains for the Grand Prix? Are there any standards or regulations on the types of trains? jt (22 years ago, 7-Jun-02, to lugnet.events.brickfest, lugnet.trains)

   (...) The current thought is to use two identical "stock" locos, maybe Metroliners. The reason is to ensure that the locos actually will tip over and not just zoom around any curve. But I'm open to any ideas. (22 years ago, 7-Jun-02, to lugnet.events.brickfest, lugnet.trains)

     (...) How about two divisions, "stock Metroliner" and "custom"? Could the Rail Racer's specs be used for the custom division? Frank (22 years ago, 7-Jun-02, to lugnet.events.brickfest, lugnet.trains)

   (...) I wonder if a train could be made that wouldn't tip over in any curve. You'd have to use some heavy duty tilting method, but still it would be tough to engineer. Sounds like something I'll have to add to my list of things to make. jt (22 years ago, 7-Jun-02, to lugnet.events.brickfest, lugnet.trains)
