Well I'm not under any sort of agreement that limits my thought processes so here goes: Would I be right in thinking that the train summit recently held didn't have much to do with Lego Train items at all? But that it was mainly aimed at using Lego (...) (24 years ago, 26-Mar-01, to lugnet.trains)

OK, OK before this gets out of control....yes it was just a joke, and was really more of an inside joke with me and one of my fellow club members, not really meant to be a joke to fool the LUGNET community, even thought I used the newsgroup to carry (...)

(...) This engine is a super job well done. I have a couple spare 9V train motors on sale if you need them (email me for details). As for the prototype BR52? This was known as the 'Kriegslok', or 'War Emergency Engine'. Built on the direct orders of (...) (24 years ago, 26-Mar-01, to lugnet.trains)

(...) Swallowed what? Those *were* product plans... I just never figured out how Ben found out about them. (Remember the meeting last month? er, ah, I'm under NDA and so are you. Never mind. It was an April Fool's joke. Trust me.) ++Lar (24 years ago, 26-Mar-01, to lugnet.trains)

(...) Cute, but it's been done (by Lionel in the 1940s) and it's called an *aquarium* car. Now make it explode. :-) Lionel never did that. Seriously, i like detail. And de-tail in this car is neat. All of it. ++Lar (24 years ago, 26-Mar-01, to lugnet.trains)

(...) With my 7745 (owned since new), my red/black slope panels were all right, but I received some extra parts (not the small variety either) but was missing some others (such as all the 10*1 red plates) Regards, John (24 years ago, 26-Mar-01, to lugnet.trains)

Hi all, I posted pics of my first train MOC ... it's a little light-hearted something for NELUG's upcoming train show. It's not really grounded in "reality" or "rational thought", per se, but I consider it the next generation of tank cars. Yeah, (...) (24 years ago, 25-Mar-01, to lugnet.trains)

Hi fellow Train Heads, Here is a question for you that some bright spark may be able to answer, or not, as the case may be! I have just aquired my fourth 7745 and I am a little puzzled as to the red/black 3x4 thin walled panels in the set. My first (...) (24 years ago, 25-Mar-01, to lugnet.trains)
