James, You're a genuine Cecil B. DeMille! It's great to see your train in action. Amazing that the file size is so small. Everyone will soon put up movies instead of pics! When I look for my next camera, I'll definitely look for that feature. Good (...) (25 years ago, 30-Jun-99, to lugnet.trains)

|

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)

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)
