(...) This is a great idea. Even if it wasn't a hands-on lab, watching someone actually doing the conversion would be good. You wouldn't even have to provide the controller as long as it was specified as one of the required materials to bring (...) (22 years ago, 10-May-02, to lugnet.trains.org)

(...) I'll tell you what I would actually like... a LAB! We bring our motor, specificed tools, and cash for the controller, (or pay in advance) and you lead us through the conversion of a motor. THAT would be cool. (22 years ago, 9-May-02, to lugnet.trains.org)

I was just admiring your work on your new MOC, James, and I have to say it really looks smart! That color combo really works in LEGO, especially in the passenger cars. My only nit is that if ever a proto cried out to be created in 8 wide, this one (...) (22 years ago, 9-May-02, to lugnet.trains)
