You want a 25-car Metroliner? I can do that ;-) I've just been playing around with designs for various cars. I have enough Metroliners, I just need to figure out HOW MANY of each car to make. I need to build a mail car, 2-3 Club Cars, a ton of (...) (23 years ago, 26-Apr-01, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.trains.org, lugnet.org.ca.nalug, lugnet.loc.us.ca.sf)

(...) Good point. No, you can't. The tender uses some black pieces (the rear panel for instance) and red lights from the colour bag, as well as (obviously) several of the coloured bricks (1x2s, a 1x6, 1x1s with handles). You have to rob these back (...) (23 years ago, 26-Apr-01, to lugnet.trains)

(...) Nope - you can build the tender without opening the engine box. It only uses parts from the tender box and the colour kit polybag. Jason J Railton (23 years ago, 26-Apr-01, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.loc.uk)

(...) Isn't it as likely that the tender uses some pieces from the base kit (either 3740 or 3741), and some pieces from the tender kit (3742) are used in the modified engine? Steve (23 years ago, 25-Apr-01, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.loc.uk)
