    New town-themed web site —Brad Hamilton
   Hi, I'm a new member of Lugnet, and I've just scanned pictures of my LEGO city and posted them on the following web site: (URL) a pretty good-sized city with a host of different buildings and some train stuff. Check it out. I hope you enjoy it. (24 years ago, 3-Feb-00, to lugnet.general)

   Hi Brad, Welcome to Lugnet! Great town; I can't wait t see your second city. I especially liked your modifications to your train. It looks so much better than the stock kit! Build on! Joe (...) (24 years ago, 3-Feb-00, to lugnet.general)

     (...) This looks great! I like how you mixed the old and new elements! Nice train! One suggestion: try to get rid of the POOP(piece made of other pieces) walls. Once again, great!

      (...) This refers to any piece that can be made of any other pieces, like 1x6x5 brick used in Town Jr. buildings. This doesn't refer to thinwalls, since there are no thin bricks and you can't make it of other pieces. Alan (24 years ago, 4-Feb-00, to lugnet.general, lugnet.town)

         Re: New town-themed web site —Brad Hamilton
     Some of the buildings in LEGO City 1 were constructed at a time when my suplies for a certain kind of brick were running low. Thus, I was forced to use the POOP constrution method. In my LEGO City 2, I've been a bit better about this due to better (...) (24 years ago, 5-Feb-00, to lugnet.general, lugnet.town)

          Re: New town-themed web site —Mike Poindexter
      I don't think you really want to hear about the set that has the windows: It costs $267.00 and has 527 pieces. Set D979701. It has 2 side pieces and 2 corners. These are the really big ones. I need 2 more to complete my train station. The set also (...) (24 years ago, 5-Feb-00, to lugnet.general)
    
         Re: New town-themed web site —Brad Hamilton
     I wasn't able to find any of those sorts of windows there. Set 6199, Hydro Crystalation Station, comes with 2 green bubble windows (they go well with the new Police theme), but I can't find anything with clear versions. Thanks for the tip though. I (...)

    (...) Well I personally am not going to get my hopes up too high. I don't think you will be seeing things that have been discontinued for 20 years, unless they use the pieces again in a new set. We really don't know if we will have access to all (...) (24 years ago, 15-Feb-00, to lugnet.general)
