  Re: Light Sensors galore...
 
(...) Or use the light sensors, and power the trains directly from the RCX. Then you could control them using RCX code. You might want to invest in an AC adaptor though, because running trains would probably use up the battery power pretty quickly! (...) (24 years ago, 12-Apr-01, to lugnet.trains)

  Re: Crocodile Engine with working lamps
 
(...) Neat. How about using the older (1x2, but straight on) light instead? I have a few of them, not sure if they would work better (perhaps allow you to eliminate one electric plate? James (24 years ago, 12-Apr-01, to lugnet.trains)
 
  Re: next 2 rheingold cars are done: details
 
(...) Sonnich, what do you think as first car, the mail van (the blue one)? Can take more pictures next week, which details do you like to see? All cars are 6 wide (and 4 wide at the end beginning with the doors), you can see a picture of the base (...) (24 years ago, 12-Apr-01, to lugnet.trains)
 
  Rare colour trains (was Re: next 2 rheingold cars are done)
 
I like these. I'm hooked on rare colour trains too, having seen Huw's green diesel and orange hopper. I'll put some pictures up of mine after my fest at the end of April. My next big thing is embedded lettering in the sides though... (...) (24 years ago, 12-Apr-01, to lugnet.trains)
 
  Crocodile Engine with working lamps
 
Hi all. I opened a new Train & Town section at my Lego web page. (URL) not yet very much to see, except my modified version of the Crocodile Engine set, which includes weighed bogies and working lamps (all three of them). (URL) this electric (...) (24 years ago, 12-Apr-01, to lugnet.trains)
 
  Re: next 2 rheingold cars are done
 
I built 4 coaches a while ago when tan was rare and used blue-purple, from McD's set. Yellow stripes are too thick but w/out them it didn't work at all. It lacks detail but cool colors. SteveB brickshelf - barile, under coaches. (...) (24 years ago, 12-Apr-01, to lugnet.trains)
 
  ...LTC Convention...
 
(...) Mpls sounds good to me... Maybe LD/LEGO could help with transport. We only should need 3 or 4 trucks for the US and Canada LUG/LTC's.

  Re: next 2 rheingold cars are done
 
Looks good. I have had a similar idea. How wide is the first car? Maybe some more pics of that one? How did you built the ends? Sonnich Adriling <Adrian.Rohnfelder@p...terkom.de> wrote in message news:GBJp46.BBA@lugnet.com... (...) (24 years ago, 11-Apr-01, to lugnet.trains)

(...) snip I would love to do something like that, but for I can commit I would have to talk my wife into it. For me, 2002 would be MUCH better than 2001. One thought though, it might be good idea to go to a place where NLSO's would have something (...) (24 years ago, 11-Apr-01, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.trains.org)

(...) MLPS...that'd be great, and some people'd have a chance to get to the mall, and see the store(s). I'd be there this summer too, but next would be great too, and I can get about 8 people (would I get in free if I brought something to display?). (...)

  Re: GFTLC H&R Train Show (It's John Neal of GMLTC!)
 
I wouldn't mind setting it up, but I think that this summer is too soon. I think next would be better, especially since we (GMLTC) don't plan on being finished with our layout until this fall:-/ As far as location is concerned, central is good, but (...)
