(...) BTW, in this photo: (URL) did you get the modern 9V track to fit the 4.5V level crossing? You didn't (gasp) cut Lego? Actually, I don't mind it. I gored apart a speed regulator to built it into a DCC throttle. It works great. Calum (23 years ago, 27-Aug-01, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

(...) Oh it'd be cut. Let me tell you that cutting a 9v straight track along it's length is very hard and time consuming. The strength of the track is in it's ties and the area b/w the ties. Once you start cutting that off, the track becomes very (...) (23 years ago, 27-Aug-01, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
