(...) Uhm, maybe just once or twice... <grin> (or about 50 times!!) (...) I *really* like the Max figure. The overalls he's wearing are such a great simple little torso design, and the dark grey 'glove' hands are a perfect touch. I had to open a (...) (22 years ago, 28-Mar-03, to lugnet.trains)

(...) That's Engineer Max! Haven't you been to (URL) in the last year? I presume him at the controls of a train is the new symbol for Lego trains (at least at the time these boxes were drawn up), since the same motif appears on all the boxes. All, (...) (22 years ago, 28-Mar-03, to lugnet.trains)

Neat stuff! I especially like the camper and the tie crane. The camper especially, is very nice. It has all those little camper details, like lights and tarp. Cool. -Stefan- (...) (22 years ago, 28-Mar-03, to lugnet.town, lugnet.trains)

As always, awesome engine Shaun! The Boiler design especially, is nice with all the different angles, surfaces, curves, SNOT, etc. I think it needs steps on the pilot though, doesn't it? Especially since it's a yard switcher. Just put those 1x2 (...) (22 years ago, 28-Mar-03, to lugnet.trains)

(...) I think they're there to spread the 'pull' of the train buffer/magnet over a larger area. The buffer has tabs that fit into the clips. By spreading the stress out a bit more it makes it less likely that the buffer will pull off the motor. (...) (22 years ago, 28-Mar-03, to lugnet.trains)

(...) Yes, there is. You can clip a 1x4 or 1x6 brick into those tabs and it will stay securely in place. Some official LEGO designs (4563? I think so, but am too lazy to go check right now) use this feature so that's presumably why they are there. (...) (22 years ago, 28-Mar-03, to lugnet.trains)
