  Interest in replacement stickers (including clear) ?
 
Hi all, I have a source that is able to produce replacement stickers and labels for lego sets. This includes the ones on clear backing, like those in the old 4.5v and 12v train sets. The sticker sheets are made by scanning originals at high (...) (22 years ago, 17-Sep-02, to lugnet.market.buy-sell-trade, lugnet.trains)

  Rebuild my SBB wine car now in gray
 
Hi, I've rebuild my swiss SBB/CFF wine car now with gray plates. I could buy these in LEGOLAND Deutschland (Günzburg). They now have a factory outlet. You can buy the most common bricks, plates, tiles and slopes (also maccaronies) in many colors (...) (22 years ago, 17-Sep-02, to lugnet.trains) ! 
 
  Re: will set 4535 (MOT train) be available to australia?
 
(...) I can see this being very useful information for train clubs to have. If a club is running a MOT(ish) train at a show it would be much easier to tell people "You can get one like it at Toys R Us" than to say "Well, you can get one like it by (...)

  Re: 4535 - MOT Set at ToysRUs.com
 
(...) Based on my experience I would say that there are quite a few cabooses still in use, but mainly on the local jobs.

  Re: HP Train and Tracks.
 
(...) Hi and welcome. This is a commonly asked question and the answer is "sort of". Since the wheels used have flanges on both sides, they have some trouble going over switchpoints and through crossings cleanly. But they do sort of OK on simple (...)

(...) You're in Canada, though... in the US the railway unions that required 5 people for a 2-3 person job in order to "preserve jobs" have been broken and the caboose is no more. The conductor (and remaining brakeman when used) now often ride in (...) (22 years ago, 17-Sep-02, to lugnet.trains)

(...) Consider yourself VERY lucky then. Outside of rail museums, I've never seen an operational caboose on the end of a train. They've been replaced by EoTDs or FREDS. -Stefan- (22 years ago, 17-Sep-02, to lugnet.trains)

(...) How typical is this? The freight trains that leave the industrial siding that I work near always (that I've noticed) have a caboose on the end. thanks, James (22 years ago, 17-Sep-02, to lugnet.trains)
