How about some train-related creations?

Are you thinking about stuff like a coal loading facility? Maybe a grain

bricks.  You would stack the panels 3-4 high, and add a loading shack and
somewhat of a frame over the towers to make the illusion of a conveyer system.

a good one there:

few loco's and freight cars, maybe even a building ot two.

(...) Hey, no fair. Your ideas have pictures. Nice pictures though. What 4x4x6 part are you talking about? What set is it in? I think I know what you’re talking about but I’m not sure on which set it’s in. Star Wars? They used to be in the old bulk (...) (23 years ago, 15-May-01, to lugnet.org.us.michlug)
