  Re: Grey 6x28 wagon plates avail Sweden & Austria

  6 wheels for 9V train motor
 
Hi, While converting my 7755 (heavy diesel shunter) to 9V I was disappointed by the loss of the two matching 6 wheel assemblies. Then I noticed the small holes on the sides of the 9V motor, right in the middle, at the level of the other wheels. So I (...) (25 years ago, 30-Jun-99, to lugnet.trains)
 
  small chnage to my trolley
 
It is almost not worth mentioning, but I finally bought a "Light saber Duel" so I now have 4 long gray antennas. As I suspected, the long gray antennas make much better trolley poles than the gray lances. (URL) in case anyone was curoius. Chris (25 years ago, 30-Jun-99, to lugnet.trains)
 
  Re: Updated TGV Orange
 
(...) Very nice again. It doesn't stray too badly at all. Could this be the first Halloween train? The Pumpkin Express? :) I sure wish the 4559 Cargo Railway was built like this (as it could have been), alternate set models notwithstanding. If it (...) (25 years ago, 29-Jun-99, to lugnet.trains)
 
  Updated TGV Orange
 
I have added a passenger car to my orange TGV. The train set now has the two engines and three passenger cars. Formerly, the train had two passenger cars. This third passenger car is a double-deck car, which I don't believe any of the orange TGVs (...) (25 years ago, 29-Jun-99, to lugnet.trains)

  Re: Page update
 
Love your pyramid! I remember making pyramids around the time King Tut did his American Tour. Yours is much nicer (bigger better doorway) than anything I made back then. The buildings are nice too, but the pyramid made me smile. Chris (...) (25 years ago, 25-Jun-99, to lugnet.trains)

  Re: Thalys and Hondekop Pics
 
Eric, I'm really impressed with your models and ideas as well as your presentation of them. I'm sure I'll learn a lot on your site. Out of curiosity, how do you pronounce "Thalys?" Is it a hard "th?" Is the "y" pronounced like an "i?" "A" as in (...) (25 years ago, 25-Jun-99, to lugnet.trains)
