  4564?
 
Hello! Got an offer for a 4564 today. They request half price of new price for it. 4564 is still on the shelfs here in Norway and is very expensive. They request 1.250,- NOK for it. A new 4559 goes for 1.159,-, and a 4565 goes for 1399,-. So when I (...) (25 years ago, 15-Apr-99, to lugnet.trains)

  Re: lugnet.trains.org newsgroup?
 
Wow. Big questions that I feel unequipped to answer. I trust Todd's experience and knowledge about this organization hierarchy stuff-- Greek to me:-p I don't think, however, that having a system like this in place would have aided the formation of (...)

I have a static IP via a cable modem: 24.95.47.75 I will start a game at 9:00 Eastern Daylight Time on Friday April 16. If no one replies to this message, the game will not start. If there are any suggestions for another time they will be (...) (25 years ago, 15-Apr-99, to lugnet.trains)

Well Todd, I guess I can't argue with that! :) Carry on with your madcap plans for our crazy little hobby. After all, for the most part, I just read this stuff. It is you who have masterminded a clean and decisive way for a lot of us to live (...) (25 years ago, 15-Apr-99, to lugnet.admin.general, lugnet.trains)
 
  Re: lugnet.trains.org newsgroup?
 
(...) I understand that concern. Here are some things to think about though -- Current traffic levels aren't really very accurate predictors of future traffic levels after a split. You might have 50 posts/day in some group and then after a split it (...) (25 years ago, 15-Apr-99, to lugnet.admin.general, lugnet.trains)
 
  Re: 12V compatible with 9V
 
Just in case no one mentioned it. If you put your 12V train on a 9V track the train is not going to go anywhere; well, not untill it is hit by another train that is! While Ben has posted a way to make 9V motors run on 12V track (URL) my knowledge no (...) (25 years ago, 14-Apr-99, to lugnet.trains)
 
  Re: lugnet.trains.org newsgroup?
 
I read lugnet.trains every day. The traffic here is, well not much traffic at all. I would be opposed to splitting off sub topics until the traffic merits it. I would hate to miss any news about trains, even if it is the intimate details of how a (...) (25 years ago, 14-Apr-99, to lugnet.admin.general, lugnet.trains)
 
  Re: lugnet.trains.org newsgroup?
 
Personally, I kind of like the idea. It makes it easier for us to discuss topics that are a little too specific for this group. (Meeting times, project ideas, transport of sections, specifications on sections, etc..) I don't know how much it would (...) (25 years ago, 14-Apr-99, to lugnet.admin.general, lugnet.trains)
