Hi, I'm not really a train fan *boo* *hiss* - which is why I'm asking this! Not having paid close attention to trains and stuff, I have the belief that track is hard to come by? This might be totally squiffy - because straight and curvy track things (...) (26 years ago, 1-Nov-98, to lugnet.trains)

(...) There were 8 blue straight rails for sure, and at least 4 white 2x8 plates, but most likely 8 of those as well. John Boreczky (26 years ago, 31-Oct-98, to lugnet.trains)

|

I just received a partial set #155. Does anyone know what pieces actually came with this track-supplement set? All I got in the box were 2 blue cross-track pieces but I think there were other pieces, specifically some white 2 x 8 Plates. -Tim (26 years ago, 31-Oct-98, to lugnet.trains)

Hi All, I have been working on controlling LEGO trains thru the Decta Control Lab and I got a tip to pulse the power to the rails to better control the trains speed. There are 8 power settings via the ctrl lab and there are really only 2 or 3 (...) (26 years ago, 29-Oct-98, to lugnet.trains)

(...) Used speed regs come up at auction every month or so and usually go for somewhere around 20-25. The 4559 is OK for parts, but if you have track, I feel the 3225 is better for parts now. I am still chasing a raincheck I hold for 6 4559's with (...) (26 years ago, 26-Oct-98, to lugnet.trains)

(...) No for the rare question. Maybe for the worth the money question - depends on the price. Worth $60 and $10 ? Sure. Worth $130 and $40? Not really. (26 years ago, 25-Oct-98, to lugnet.trains)

(...) Both sets are still current. In fact, 4559 comes with the speed regulator 4548 included. Any train set is worth the money in my opinion ! Grahame Reid (26 years ago, 25-Oct-98, to lugnet.trains)

I saw a 4559 Cargo Railway and a 4548 Speed Regulator in a local "Bedford Falls Toys & Books" today. I am not really into Lego Trains yet - but I was wondering if these are particularly rare items, and worth the money... Thanks in advance... -- (...) (26 years ago, 25-Oct-98, to lugnet.trains)

Has anyone tried the 3225 Classic Train caboose with the 4565 Freight and Crane Railway? They have the same color scheme and would seem to go together, but since I have neither set yet, I can't try it. I have made my first train purchase with 4532 (...) (26 years ago, 23-Oct-98, to lugnet.trains)
