(...) Another question about a new element. Take a look at this picture here (2008 Creator house set): (URL) See the white 1x2x2 windows on the second level of the house? Could these be an updated version of our beloved 1x2x2 old-style windows that (...) (17 years ago, 4-Dec-07, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.parts, FTX)

In a garage sale lot I found an odd little 4x8 car base, mainly yellow, with red permanently-attached wheels on metal axles, with a loose light grey bumper strip at one end which, when pushed in, causes a section in the center of the car base to (...) (17 years ago, 28-Nov-07, to lugnet.parts)

There isn't a part number on it, and searches on Peeron for 6x6 plate and 6x6x1 plate didn't come up with anything. It's a 6x6 plate with a 4x4 stud area in the center. The studs at the four corners of this area are hollow. There is a thin-wall (...) (17 years ago, 11-Nov-07, to lugnet.parts)

| | Rectangular 4,5V battery boxes - correction

The description of parts "x468*" on Peeron is incorrect. This post is only a try to make it better but somebody can disagree with me (that's why I am not posting it directly to Peeron). There were three main types of rectangular boxes for three 1,5V (...) (17 years ago, 5-Sep-07, to lugnet.parts, lugnet.inv)

The Inventory for 112-2 on Peeron is wrong! Please have a look at the inventory on Bricklink where it is correct. As I own this set I can confirm that it has no Plate 2 x 6.
