  Model of Old North Church at FAO
 
I visited FAO a few weeks ago to look for this model. (we had been discussing Boston landmarks a while back) Sure enough, the model I remembered was still there by the escalator and is of The Old North Church. The model only represents a front (...)

  Re: Phone Booths
 
(...) It is a starting point but I think 4 wide is just a bit to wide. I think it is possible to do something similar 3 wide using a 1x2 tile with center stud between the 2 thin walls. I think that might be a more resonable scale. I think I might (...) (24 years ago, 8-Mar-01, to lugnet.org.us.nelug, lugnet.build)

(...) There's a set (heavily juniorised car) that has a phone much like this... (URL) not great, but it's a starting point. eric (24 years ago, 8-Mar-01, to lugnet.org.us.nelug, lugnet.build)
 
  Phone Booths
 
Does anybody know of any LEGO phone booth designs? I recall there being at least one in the big LEGO book, but I was goingto solicit some other ideas as well. Specifically, I'm thinking of the non-enclosed versions found at gas stations - the (...) (24 years ago, 8-Mar-01, to lugnet.org.us.nelug, lugnet.build)
 
  Re: Green line pics
 
(...) Actually, it was my original intent to make that part nice and rounded as well, but I couldn't find a good way of doing it-- and because of the width and 'tilt-in-edness' of the windshield it made it rather difficult... But I admit I didn't (...) (24 years ago, 8-Mar-01, to lugnet.loc.us.ma, lugnet.org.us.nelug, lugnet.trains)

David, Great model! I really like the curved roof. I would love to see Lego offer the curved roof pieces in bulk... Bryan "David Eaton" <deaton@intdata.com> wrote in message news:G9vw9B.Eu2@lugnet.com... (...) (24 years ago, 8-Mar-01, to lugnet.loc.us.ma, lugnet.org.us.nelug, lugnet.trains)
 
  Re: Green line pics
 
(...) Have those appeared in any other soccer sets besides 3408? (URL) looks like there are only 2 in the set which means you would need 12*30 or $360 retail just for the doors. Ouch!. Of course we can all do better waiting for sales but still... I (...) (24 years ago, 8-Mar-01, to lugnet.loc.us.ma, lugnet.org.us.nelug, lugnet.trains)
 
  Re: Green line pics
 
(...) Looks really nice, Dave:-) Those subway cars are just screaming to be modeled in LEGO-- thanks for heeding the call;-) One suggestion-- seems to me that the doors are a dead ringer to be modeled using the 1x2x3 white train window (stacked, 4 (...)

(...) square but after looking at this picture: (URL) decided that your interpretation of that variation of Greenline car worked real well. Of course it is 8 wide but considering some of the detailing "challenges" that modeling in LEGO provides I (...) (24 years ago, 8-Mar-01, to lugnet.loc.us.ma, lugnet.org.us.nelug, lugnet.trains)
 
  Green line pics
 
Well, despite the terrible lighting conditions at my place, I put together some pictures of my green line train that I made mostly over this last weekend (my very first train!): (URL) based off of the green line of the Boston subway, in particular, (...)
