(...) I think it is a fantastic use of the 4-wide cockpit window element. Very cool how you integrated the sloping nose around 45 degree slopes and inverse slopes. Well done. Your metrostation and white/black metro train look good, too. Thanks for (...) (22 years ago, 6-Jan-03, to lugnet.trains)

(...) I agree. I try to build all new trains 7 wide. It's a bit more work but it does seem to be the ideal size for the track. KL (22 years ago, 6-Jan-03, to lugnet.trains)

(...) Definitely. I bet you could even find a prototype for it somewhere if you hunted hard enough. Perhaps body mounted rather than truck mounted would be necessary to avoid somewhat silly looking trucks, though. (...) Yep. They're called unit (...) (22 years ago, 6-Jan-03, to lugnet.trains)

(...) Hehe, that's my fault. I was the guy who answered his questions, and I told him a couple or 3 times that he needed to make sure to honor the LEGO(r) trademark, but only once about pluralization. I guess he forgot the part where I said "on (...) (22 years ago, 6-Jan-03, to lugnet.trains.org)

(...) If the circle ends up being a bit too small to center the couplers, couldn't you build a different hopper that has the couplers a brick or two higher? Sure, it would only work with other hoppers with the same coupler design, but most of the (...) (22 years ago, 6-Jan-03, to lugnet.trains)

Hello all LEGO train fans! Please have a look at my Blue Express passenger train on (URL) earlier trains have all been red or white so now I wanted to try the blue color. Also, I wanted to use all my transparent panes and the cool front window from (...) (22 years ago, 6-Jan-03, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.announce, lugnet.loc.dk, lugnet.loc.dk.kb.kob) !

The inner trucks are just floating - this does lead to occasional (ok, often) derailments. The engine can handle turnouts and crossings, but not as consistantly as I would like. (...) (22 years ago, 6-Jan-03, to lugnet.trains)

(...) Thanks for the comments Chris, I've often pondered the question of the side windows themselves. But then I recall that we often leave our cab windows open (in warm weather, if the loco's not air conditioner-equipped) so the gaps don't look too (...) (22 years ago, 6-Jan-03, to lugnet.trains)

(...) Looks very nice. I noticed that you are faced with a difficult choice. The airplane windows make an appropriately sized forward facing window, but it leaves an unsitely gap next to the side window. A 1x2x2 window would seal up the hole on the (...) (22 years ago, 6-Jan-03, to lugnet.trains)
