(...) I dunno. *I* think the most difficult part of building one of these is saving up digger buckets till you have enough for a roof! Nice build. Spotlighted. Thanks for sharing! XFUT trains... (20 years ago, 8-Feb-05, to lugnet.loc.de, lugnet.build.schleim, lugnet.trains)

It won't be long until these "digger buckets" are not longer needed! Check out the inital concept for this VO1000 switcher (Yet another Turtle Creek MOC)... (2 URLs) The roof is made up of the new 1x3 rounded bricks (LDRaw #50950) that is used as (...) (20 years ago, 8-Feb-05, to lugnet.trains, FTX)

They're also available in yellow (x2) in 8644 Street Maniac. I'd add it to Peeron but its got too many new parts and I've never quite worked out how to read the part numbers. Tim Gould [LEGOSet 8644] (20 years ago, 9-Feb-05, to lugnet.trains, FTX)

(...) I use that part (and its one long sibling) for a LOT of things including roofs but haven't tried sideways yet. I like roofs that come off, at least for passenger service, so that would be a consideration too. I don't see that part as any (...) (20 years ago, 9-Feb-05, to lugnet.trains)
