(...) I believe your x455 piece is correct. The 661 inventory on Peeron was copied from the 456 inventory. The latter set is 1977, the former 1976.

Pedro, I have experimented with many different mechanisms for auto-discharging hoppers, although none have been like the one you describe. I have tried ones with levers that are moved up and down as the wagon passes a trackside mechanism, and while (...) (21 years ago, 15-Sep-03, to lugnet.technic, lugnet.trains)

Recently I got a 661 (European nr) Spirit of St. Louis. When comparing the parts with Peeron (URL) I noticed a difference in pieces. It's about the two black 1 x 2 bricks with hole. Peeron says these are 3700 (URL) Mine came with x455 (URL) Cause my (...) (21 years ago, 15-Sep-03, to lugnet.technic, lugnet.town)

The catalog code to get the discounted price is H3101. The only problem is, then you do NOT qualify for the free shipping offer, even if you tack on a little set or two to bump it up over the $99 mark (I tried it). Shipping $75.01-$125.00 is $8.95, (...) (21 years ago, 13-Sep-03, to lugnet.technic)
