(...) We sort of know the owner, as she teaches at Nik and Taya's school. I told her I was glad to see her carrying LEGO, asked her about pricing. She claimed that her prices were lower than retail in some cases and that she would have some (...) (25 years ago, 20-Jul-99, to lugnet.loc.us.mi.grr, lugnet.trains)

|

Hello! As I have seen this part being used for automatic switches etc., then I expect that some will know how it works. Is it a 2 or 3 step switch. Just on/off or off and 2 directions? Sonnich. (25 years ago, 20-Jul-99, to lugnet.trains)

Hi All, I wanted to share (brag) that PNLTC was chosen to be the "recipient of the coveted Web Gem Award from the TrainNet Forum on CompuServe." It seems like the hobby of LEGO trains is slowly getting noticed by outsiders! (URL) TrainNet Forum (...) (25 years ago, 19-Jul-99, to lugnet.trains)

Hi Trainees, :-) I was wondering why there is no Lego Train web ring? Seems like a good idea. I also wondered if anyone has made a UP (or even better, MOPAC) GP30? Where could I find pics of such a model? Thank you. -- Have fun! John AUCTION Page (...) (25 years ago, 19-Jul-99, to lugnet.trains)

(...) Thanks Ralph, I agree, the Technic crown gear is one of the most realisticly sized & shaped object for a fan cover that I have seen.
