  Pics of Road Train Turning on road plates!

Road train generally refers to trailers with yoked front axle, similar to horse drawn carriages in the old wild (...) (22 years ago, 6-Apr-03, to lugnet.technic, lugnet.town)

Cary, Looks great! I love to see large parks like this and I think that parks and greenery can really add to the feel of a town. I think my favorite part are the grey flower baskets hanging from the red archway. (part 2145) Nice work, -Kevin (...) (22 years ago, 6-Apr-03, to lugnet.town)
