Looking good Wayne. As for standards, I was thinking of making a small replica of the Erie Canal. I have not yet thought it all the way through, but I am hoping to possibly use Mindstorms to pull the boat with the Donkey (horse). Have to see where (...)

(...) If you pop over to the site now you can see the correct Logo :) Since I got a good sleep last night I'm gonna spend a few more hours and finish up what I wanted to get done last night. I was playing with the buttons this morning and need to (...) (22 years ago, 1-Feb-03, to lugnet.org.us.lucny)

(...) I hope you choose to retain it, it's awfully sharp. Brick logos have been a bit overdone lately. (22 years ago, 30-Jan-03, to lugnet.org.us.lucny)

*snip* (...) Will you be using the New York Central - style logo on the website? We've started using that on our handouts and container cars and such, and we need to reflect it on the site as well. Ed (22 years ago, 30-Jan-03, to lugnet.org.us.lucny)

I finally have to say I'm done.. Took me what seems like forever to get a small project done. (more on that later) Anyhow, I was thinking about something. As we get more and more into Layout Design, I had an idea about what will be the Standard (...) (22 years ago, 30-Jan-03, to lugnet.org.us.lucny)

(...) Based from my experience in the past with the old 4.5 volt battery train and gray tracks there was a slight speed up but, nothing that would have to be monitored. If the incline slope isn't so steep, all should be well. The other thing we (...) (22 years ago, 23-Jan-03, to lugnet.org.us.lucny)

(...) Looks good, but I'm curious on how a long train is able to handle coming down from an elevation and into a curve.

I had an idea about the layout that might help out with restate of tables. I decided to think in 3d. While it would be nice to have multi lines running and a nice BIG yard, I came up with this idea. I think I have all the track to lay this out (...) (22 years ago, 23-Jan-03, to lugnet.org.us.lucny)
