(...) I would say make a larger test segment before you draw that conclusion... (...) That's a good question and I would defer to the folks talking about the dropped section for the authoritative answer. IIRC when they said "22 bricks" they were (...)

(...) I can stick with 2 tracks since that is what the one in Marquette has *I think* I also think one track won't look as good as two tracks. As for the grade, I wanted the track to come down to the ore dock from a hill like the one in Marquette, (...) (25 years ago, 16-Sep-01, to lugnet.org.us.michlug)

(...) I can see two, although I would argue it will be plenty dominant with just 1. But 4 tracks is way too many. The throat will take up too much space. Remember, selective compression... Why do you want to widen it? Docks often have slight grades (...) (25 years ago, 16-Sep-01, to lugnet.org.us.michlug)

(...) If it is too tall then I will shorten it due to the fact I want to be able to run my ore cars on there. But one thing for sure is that I am going to have to widen it to accommodate 2 or 4 tracks. (25 years ago, 16-Sep-01, to lugnet.org.us.michlug)

(...) Looks pretty good Kai. One suggestion though, try saving the picture in a picture editor to decrease file size. 618K is a really big, a 6 min load for me at home. As far as specifications go, I think 27 bricks is already to high. I am pretty (...) (25 years ago, 16-Sep-01, to lugnet.org.us.michlug)

Hello, As I explained to some folks at the Ringe-fest I will be making a Ore Dock for the harbor at GATS-02. Here are some photos: (URL) sits about 27 high and is 10 wide. I will be much taller once I get some more parts. It will be able to have 2 (...) (25 years ago, 15-Sep-01, to lugnet.org.us.michlug)

To All, I know in light of this week, how difficult it seems to do anything, but I am determined to go living life, as many people are starting to do.

(...) Trev, I'm sorry, I have to confess a little ignorance on this one. What exactly is a "fleebnork"? I've seen that term occasionally thrown around on the space newsgroup, but I feel like I must have come in late and missed out on some sort of (...)
