  Re: Free Shipping?
 
(...) Strange...I looked at this link, and it doesn't appear that Holden actually mention or even indicate anywhere that they specifically aim to sell in or to the U.S.A....could it be that Holden is a company that is run semi-independantly from GM.

  Re: Super Chief will be ready for prime-time: a trick to make it work.
 
(...) I believe you're right but I can't find it for some reason. It's rare that LUGNET(tm) search fails me but it did this time. I know it's out there and not that long ago either. Just can't find it. (22 years ago, 24-Oct-02, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.lego.direct)
 
  Re: Super Chief will be ready for prime-time: a trick to make it work.
 
(...) What is kind of weird is that I don't think (and I could well be wrong) that the needles at the axle tips are actually doing anything, bearing wise. I've looked at both black and grey wheelsets and it looks to me like all the bearing action is (...) (22 years ago, 24-Oct-02, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.lego.direct)
 
  Re: Tan Spindle Fence (quarter-round)
 
(...) Last week at LLW Guy Bagley told us the Lego drawing paper used by the park modelmakers is called 'knobbe' paper because that is the Danish word for stud. In the 70's TLC ran a promotional thing (in the UK at least) where you got stickers of (...) (22 years ago, 24-Oct-02, to lugnet.general, lugnet.market.shopping, lugnet.lego.direct)

(...) I largely agree. I'll have to check, but did Jake not indicate that this was all caused by an unauthorised change made by a supplier? If this is the case, then the supplier should be compensating TLG for the cost of making things right (...) (22 years ago, 24-Oct-02, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.lego.direct)

(...) trouble: (...) wheel (...) That is more accurate description. But that is the point: the wheel touches the frame. Of course any rotor should only be in touch with the none-rotating system via its bearings. (...) cross-tracks: (...) this only 2 (...)

  Re: Free Shipping?
 
(...) Unless it’s a sop to their dealers, I think its crazy that they don't offer free shipping as standard for larger purchases. I can buy Lego from www.argos.co.uk and get free shipping if I spend over UKP100 [$154.70][1]. I can get a next day (...) (22 years ago, 24-Oct-02, to lugnet.loc.uk, lugnet.lego.direct)
