I've cooked one up that I think looks pretty good. It's been fun to have something small to tinker with, makes it a lot easier to concentrate on using the limited number of pieces in many different configurations. The Cloud Car is by far the best (...) (23 years ago, 19-Jan-02, to lugnet.org.us.baylug, lugnet.loc.us.ca.sf)

(...) I *still* haven't got more track for my one little 9V oval, and I'm now in a 2200sq. ft. house with a room with a nice bare 14'x15' hardwood floor.
