  Pics: Life-size Thomas
 
Don't know all of the particulars about this Thomas, but he came to Minneapolis last weekend and the weekend before (snowed *both* weekends!) I do know that he is a dummy (a hard-working GP-7 pushed him around from the rear). Ross (my son) said that (...) (22 years ago, 2-May-02, to lugnet.trains)
 
  Re: Wow! New Train Engine Pics
 
(...) first thumbnails for reference photos. I'm not normally one to comment on trains, as its not really my area of LEGO interest, but the sweetness of these MOCs transcends genres. Quite an accomplishment for young Ross. We will watch his career (...) (22 years ago, 1-May-02, to lugnet.trains)

  Re: BrickFest TimeSaver Layout
 
(...) The constant throttle speed is also mildly important if the contest is timed instead of counting moves. Note that counting time is actually more prototypical also. In real life, they don't care how many "moves" you make. What they care is that (...) (22 years ago, 1-May-02, to lugnet.trains.org)
 
  Re: BrickFest TimeSaver Layout
 
(...) I think you may have answered my decoupling dilemma. It might have to be modified for 12v track (because of the conductors between the rails). This is much more elegant than what I was imagining: one hand on each car and pulling them apart. I (...) (22 years ago, 1-May-02, to lugnet.trains.org)
 
  Re: BrickFest TimeSaver Layout
 
Oh, I disagree heartily. Having played my own LEGO timesaver, as well as an HO version that I own, I can tell you that using the throttle makes the game MUCH more thrilling. Pushing the trains around by hand is just not the same. John Allen's (...) (22 years ago, 1-May-02, to lugnet.trains.org)
