(...) Thanks for the feedback, James. Like I said, I tried to use as many standard pieces as possible. Besides the regular baseplate, it also uses one of the 4x6 truck plates with the central technic pin, and the front wheels can be adapted pretty (...) (22 years ago, 16-Nov-02, to lugnet.trains)

(...) Shaun, I really like how you used a standard train base plate for the foundation of this steam locomotive model. I love how you disguised this base plate at the piston/cylinders with the hinged panel; dropping it SNOT-wise at a slight angle to (...) (22 years ago, 15-Nov-02, to lugnet.trains)

Hey Shaun- Good idea, and nice MOC! It is a rare engine indeed that can both look the most detailed it can AND be highly functional as well. I am going to ask Ross to take on your challenge of modifying your design and see what he comes up with-- I (...) (22 years ago, 15-Nov-02, to lugnet.trains)

(...) I'm glad to have been of service :-) Yes, you rendered it about right according to the instructions I gave. One of these days I'll get around to posting some of my TD doodles on Brickshelf. Maybe even today. --Bill. (22 years ago, 15-Nov-02, to lugnet.trains)

Hi All, In a massive departure from my usual modus operandi, I finished up my latest project last night; a 4-4-4 steam engine. The uncharted territory (for me at least) comes from the fact that (a) the steam engine is *6-wide*, and (b) it is not (...) (22 years ago, 15-Nov-02, to lugnet.announce.moc, lugnet.trains) !

Now THIS is a very good switching yard (the 'to download' one). Great 'extra' advantage: there are pairs of L en R switches, the way we often have to buy these things! I'm definitely going to build it these days. Keep designing guys! I love this (...) (22 years ago, 15-Nov-02, to lugnet.trains)
