|
This is a majorly early design study toward an ICE type train. I don't think this design is "pointy" nor "sloped" enough to look like the ICE-3. Perhaps more like the ICE-Tilt or the ICE-dmu (diesel) unit. My LEGO ICE version 0 design study: (URL) (...) (23 years ago, 13-Jun-01, to lugnet.trains)

Ludo, I really like that engine. I love the simplicity of the lines; I really lean that way. I did think of one modification, if I may... concerning the stack of 2 1x1 headlight bricks (4 stacks in all). I was wondering what it would look like if (...) (23 years ago, 13-Jun-01, to lugnet.trains)

(...) Hi Lar (and everyone else), I didn't take what you said as an accusation of wrong doing; I understood your statement to mean that you just didn't like the color I chose, and that it shouldn't become the official color.

(...) Interesting. I'd assert that the clearance needed on the inside is a function of the width of rolling stock and the maximum distance kingpin to kingpin (the longer a car, the more the center overhangs the inside of the curve).

Any suggestions on a general rule as to how much space is prudent to leave on either side of track for a variety of trains to easily negotiate around curves? This is for NCLUG/NCLTC's upcoming GATS. I am trying to plan my plot layout. I have one (...) (23 years ago, 13-Jun-01, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.org.us.nclug, lugnet.trains.org)
