(...) It's a good reference, and I'd probably scale it back some to fit table dimensions. There's an incongruous electrical connection that needs to be removed, however, as you've got polarity reversed on the right end of the yard. The right-most (...) (21 years ago, 23-Jul-03, to lugnet.trains)

(...) Hi Thomas, thanks for sharing these further pictures without the logos in the center of the track layout. Do you have an idea, if this very layout has been published in one of the books like 238, 239, 241 or 242? (it is too hot, too late and (...)

I've been musing on track geometry.... Consider these assumptions. I assume these are fairly well known. Or at least, I didn't discover them myself; I found them either on LUGNET or some website. A1. Two points with a diagonal straight in between (...) (21 years ago, 22-Jul-03, to lugnet.trains)

(...) Not sure, but I know my 7821 car came in a flip top box (I only have the top lid), and it's in the same price range as the 7813 car. 7813 is from 1986, so I suspect there was a switch around 1985, when the new trains were released. (21 years ago, 22-Jul-03, to lugnet.trains)

I recently won an auction for a 7813 Shell Wagon and I was surprised to find that it had a standard "open at the end" style box. My 7820 Mail Vans, 7818 Passenger Coach and 7814 Crane Wagon have much sturdier "top flips open" box. These boxes are (...) (21 years ago, 22-Jul-03, to lugnet.trains)
