  Re: Trolley doors
 
Leanne, Welcome to the club! I think that most trains have those kind of doors, but they are too difficult to build with Lego, so they just made the train doors we have right now. I guess that you will have to learn to accept it, as it is not going (...) (25 years ago, 17-Jul-99, to lugnet.trains)
 
  Re: Interest in NELTC or other Lego Group.
 
(...) Plenty of room for that... GMLTC roundhouse uses 3 RCX bricks and gawd knows how many sensors, switches, etc. Assuming John G gets it working right, that is. I added lugnet.trains.org to the groups list so that members of other clubs will see (...)

  More GMLTC pics
 
Nine new pics. I finally had some spare time here with the scanner. With any luck (and provided we finish building in time) we'll have some .avi's of the layout from the train's prospective next month after the show. (URL) (25 years ago, 16-Jul-99, to lugnet.trains.org)
 
  Re: Known groups
 
(...) A lot of the Red Line stations are pretty cool, for subway stations. And the underground would be kind of fun to model. (25 years ago, 16-Jul-99, to lugnet.trains.org, lugnet.loc.us.ma, lugnet.loc.us.ma.bos)
 
  Re: Known groups
 
(...) the (...) running (...) Well I guess that shows that I am more of an Orange Line Rider. But Newton or Chestnut Hill would be just as cool. (For the Green Line). Eric P.S. Just bought my first Train and can't wait to get to work on it. I also (...) (25 years ago, 16-Jul-99, to lugnet.trains.org, lugnet.loc.us.ma, lugnet.loc.us.ma.bos)
 
  Re: Known groups
 
(...) Hmm, maybe Boston is too localized, from what people are saying on other parts of this thread. What about an EMLTC or a NELTC? EMLTC - Eastern Mass. LEGO Train Club NELTC - New England LEGO Train Club (Note: I'm not into Trains, so I couldn't (...) (25 years ago, 16-Jul-99, to lugnet.trains.org, lugnet.loc.us.ma, lugnet.loc.us.ma.bos)

  Trolley doors
 
Hiya! I'm working on a model of the San Diego Trolley, and am trying to figure out how best to emulate the doors on the trolley. They're a sort of gull-wing type in that they pop out from the trolley before sliding to the side. Has anyone (...) (25 years ago, 16-Jul-99, to lugnet.trains)
 
  Re: more known groups
 
Just thinking here about NOVA LTC... Did you know that Chevy tried to market the Nova in Latin America and it totally flopped. It seems as though nobody in upper management knew that NOVA means "It doesn't go" in Spanish. Being in California, I know (...) (25 years ago, 16-Jul-99, to lugnet.trains.org)
 
  Re: Known groups
 
I tried to build a Green Line car, got as far as a frame that properly articulates and the steps, but ran out of time and scrapped it... My sense was that getting the center portion of the body to properly bend will be a challenge. I've subsequently (...)
