(...) Gee, I'm sorry you found it offensive. As Tim has already explained, this is a bit of an inside joke, and I can see how the heading can come off as offensive to anyone not in the know. Apologies. Legoswami (20 years ago, 17-Oct-05, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.loc.au, FTX)

(...) Hi Peter, Thanks for the defense but don't worry about the heading. It was a joke between Samarth and myself. I was actually the other end of the 24hr build challenge and we've been having a mini scale war off Lugnet for a while. Of course the (...)

--SNIP-- (...) To be fair to Swami, that was more my fault than his. I was rushing his renders and didn't have time to learn Lsynth to add the flextube. Thanks too for the compliments but my version took a lot longer than 24hrs to design and was (...) (20 years ago, 17-Oct-05, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.loc.au, FTX)

(...) Hi me Peter again I forgot to add in my last post also that I find the "Post Heading" very offensive "NR-75 The Ghan (The way it should have been done)" Now I know you smiled at the end of it but I feel that Tim Gould posted the original Ghan (...)

(...) Hi All I have to put my 20 cents worth in here as I have built the 6 wide NR 75 with many thanks to Tim for his help with prototyping issues and use of his instructions. 8 wide looks awfull but that is only my opinion far too out of scale no (...)

This is a great model. I may build it if I can find the parts: I have a suggestion. Put your name in the file as the author. If I build this I would want to be able to tell someone who designed the engine. I would probably forget whose model it is (...) (20 years ago, 16-Oct-05, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.loc.au)

(...) Looks quite good, although it's always hard to judge a model purely on a POVRAY/LDRAW picture (ie get off your lazy *&^ and start building ;) ) About height, the model indeed looks a bit "stretched" although I'm not familiar with the original.

(...) If you said 6-wide represents an 8ft wide coach body, a minifig is 41mm / 48mm x 8ft = 6'10" tall and 16mm / 48mm x 8ft = 2'8" wide at the waist (standard minifig with hair but no rucksack). If 6-wide represents a 10ft wide body for American (...) (20 years ago, 16-Oct-05, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.loc.au)
