  Re: Finally...
 
(...) I guess I'm not the only one that "couldn't sleep" ;-) I hope you guys make it safely down. (you probably have already left....oh well!!!) :) Benjamin Medinets (23 years ago, 11-Aug-01, to lugnet.org.ca.parlugment)

  Finally...
 
Well, I finished my mountain around 1:30am. Then I had to pack everything up. Had to take a couple breaks to look after my crying son. But I'm finally ready for Train2. It's after 3am already, so I hope Jude knows how to drive standard. <grin> Play (...) (23 years ago, 11-Aug-01, to lugnet.org.ca.parlugment)

  Re: ZNAP sets
 
(...) Hi Tim, I am interested. Please bring one or two for me. I might want just the motors, since I have little use for z-nap. Rob (23 years ago, 9-Aug-01, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto, lugnet.org.ca.parlugment, lugnet.org.ca.monlug)

(...) D'oh!!!!

  Re: train2 rollcall...
 
(...) Well, bring the monorail if you can. It would be cool if you could. As an aside, no I won't be bringing a Metroliner & FRR to Train2. :-( I got an email on Monday asking for my address again because the parcel had been returned to the guy I (...)

  ZNAP sets
 
Is there anybody interested in any of the 3571 Blackmobile with Motor? I imagine many have already got what they needed from clearances, but I am bringing some for Ben, and wondered if anyone else was interested? I figured I'd ask $17 per box. (...)

  Re: Passing wires at train2
 
Like the others said, under is better. Unless you're going for the hydro wire look. <grin> But yes, there are cutouts to fit the wires under the track. And a lot of the track, namely corners and switches, will just be sitting on top of the (...) (23 years ago, 9-Aug-01, to lugnet.org.ca.parlugment, lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

  Passing wires at train2
 
What do you think is the best way to pass wires that need to cross the track? Over or under the track? If over how much height clearance do I need? Jude ParLUGment #1 (23 years ago, 8-Aug-01, to lugnet.org.ca.parlugment, lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

(...) That'll trash my tunnel, I imagine :( I think the outside of the curve is OK - those pivots sound like they're near the ends, but the inside corner only has a stud or two to spare. I'll see if I can mod it tonight, but no promises. Jeff E (23 years ago, 8-Aug-01, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto, lugnet.org.ca.monlug, lugnet.org.ca.parlugment)
 
  Re: train2 rollcall...
 
(...) Well I meet the fat 8-wide standard. I should be under 13.2 bricks in height. However I'm more then 50 long. I think the bogy pivit points are at 42 or 44 bump separation. Thats why I say I cut a lot on the corners. Going around a bend two (...) (23 years ago, 8-Aug-01, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto, lugnet.org.ca.monlug, lugnet.org.ca.parlugment)

All my track & bridges on the mainlines can handle a skinny 10-wide [2], 34-long car [3], including the tunnel. My tunnel arches can handle a car that is (...)
