  Re: Motor control
 
(...) Just some extra info, how to read this plan: there are 10 lines, which are representing your track oval under 10 certain circumstances with more or less locos on it. (Each "besetzt" means, there is a loco in this block). The oval consists out (...) (23 years ago, 15-May-01, to lugnet.trains)
 
  Re: 9V train motor(s????)
 
(...) Yes (...) Yes again. 1) A 12v motor (without modification) WILL run on 9v if you put 9V on the center power pickups (this can be done by using the screw on connectors on a 9V power lead that you cut). So the seller is technically correct. (...) (23 years ago, 15-May-01, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.market.theory)

  Re: Motor control
 
(...) You can quite happily power the motor from the RCX without modification - just don't supply any other power to the track. This will also electrify the track, and power any other motors on it too though. If you break the connections to the (...) (23 years ago, 15-May-01, to lugnet.trains)

  Motor control
 
Has anyone considered modifying a train motor so that it can be controlled from an on-board RCX but powered from the tracks? The aux power tap on the top might be used as a connector to an RCX output. Its internal connection to the power tap would (...) (23 years ago, 15-May-01, to lugnet.trains)
 
  Re: 9V train motor(s????)
 
(...) Post the link to the auction for us. If you've bought something that's not as originally described, you should be able to complain to ebay and cancel the deal - that's basic commercial law. Jason J Railton (23 years ago, 15-May-01, to lugnet.trains)
 
  Re: 9V train motor(s????)
 
(...) Hi Jeroen! I have never heard of a 12V motor which runs on its own on 9V track. And I might be a kind of an expert on trains, train motors and their conversion. So I would recommend you to ask for a good description or better for a picture of (...) (23 years ago, 15-May-01, to lugnet.trains)
 
  9V train motor(s????)
 
Hi, I bought a 9V trainmotor on ebay, but the seller now claims it is an older model and uses the 12V midrail to get its power, except it runs on 9V instead of 12V. Can this be true? Or am I fooled/tricked? Jeroen (23 years ago, 15-May-01, to lugnet.trains)
 
  Re: James Mathis are you there?
 
(...) Hello, Josh, Regarding my Amtrak Cascades train: "Was it complicated?"..... That's quite an interesting question! The answer is, "yes." How did I build it? 1) At least one year of thinking about it; and I'm still back-burner tinkering with (...) (23 years ago, 15-May-01, to lugnet.trains)
 
  James Mathis are you there?
 
I ran across your Amtrak Cascades train, and i'm interested in how you built it. Was it complicated? I'd like to build a replica, sort of, but in another paint scheme. Josh (23 years ago, 15-May-01, to lugnet.trains)
 
  Brickbay fully operational
 
Hey everyone, Dan's Brickbay is 100% again, yeah! -Harvey (23 years ago, 15-May-01, to lugnet.trains)
 
  Re: A few questions about the new trains
 
I like the huge classic space 928 set! Cool! But back to trains here... It may be a good price for a push along train, but I want the full meal deal. Like everyone, I want a 4558, but I also really like the 4559, although they seem to go for quite a (...) (23 years ago, 14-May-01, to lugnet.trains)
 
  Re: BRAND NEW TRAINS ON S@H
 
(...) I'm sure you've been over this one several times as well... but I'm going to ask anyway... Does anyone know of any plans to add the kt--- "My Own Train" sets to LUGNET Set Reference? (23 years ago, 14-May-01, to lugnet.trains)
 
  Re: BRAND NEW TRAINS ON S@H
 
(...) Yes, we've been over this one several times - have a look over past posts. Since you seem to be new to lugnet.trains, and listed the price in pounds, have you found (URL) too? Jason J Railton (23 years ago, 14-May-01, to lugnet.trains)
 
  Re: BRAND NEW TRAINS ON S@H
 
(...) Hey Sam, welcome to LUGNET trains newsgroup. The new steam engine sets were released a couple weeks ago, but there's a whole lot more to see here on LUGNET,enjoy! -Harvey (23 years ago, 14-May-01, to lugnet.trains)
 
  BRAND NEW TRAINS ON S@H
 
During one of my mad surfing sprees to S@H, I noticed a brand new train set for £21.50! It's a steam engine! Check it out at (URL) Or maybe I'm a bit slow. Either way, they're cool, huh? (23 years ago, 14-May-01, to lugnet.trains)
 
  Re: A few questions about the new trains

  Re: A few questions about the new trains
 
It looks like in the pictures at S@H that there was a motor included with the set. And it looked like the motor was on the tender on the sets that had a tender, in the pics at S@H. Hmmm...it looks like getting one of those trains as a train starter (...) (23 years ago, 13-May-01, to lugnet.trains)
