  Re: A new article by Didier Enjary...
 
(...) There doesn't appear to be a lugnet.org.iltco - but I was going through the article section of ILTCO.org.

  Re: Train Show Layout Size Restrictions??
 
(...) That's a good question about asking for layout space. I know on some of the Greenberg and GATS applications it will ask for a max and min space requirements. I have found that if we put in a min space that is always what we end up getting, so (...) (19 years ago, 9-May-05, to lugnet.trains.org)
 
  Train Show Layout Size Restrictions??
 
I just finished reading this thread about giant bridges-- (URL) got me to thinking about the amount of floor space such projects take up at train shows. A LOT. Since this topic does not come up often, I have a few questions to ask: · has your club (...) (19 years ago, 9-May-05, to lugnet.trains.org)
 
  Re: Four 'European' (O.K., British) Short Wheelbase Wagons
 
(...) I find your lack of taste disturbing... (...) I have family in the area too. My Dad was born in Bolsover. (...) That's not exactly what I was basing mine on, but I can't find the pictures at the moment. I can see yours uses SNOT to make the (...) (19 years ago, 9-May-05, to lugnet.trains, FTX)
 
  Re: 8 Wide LEGO Thomas! (pics)
 
Hello John, Very nice. Two questions: 1) Where can I get a Duplo Thomas engine? - I'm not seeing them listed on S@H anywhere. 2) What color blue did LEGO use for the engine? Thanks, Ben Fleskes Big Ben Bricks LLC (...) <snip> (...) (19 years ago, 9-May-05, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.duplo, FTX)
 
  Re: Four 'European' (O.K., British) Short Wheelbase Wagons
 
Like them all, perhaps you could do the broken back tanker in (URL) purple>! The Bolsover wagons hold especial significance for me as I live about 8 miles from the colliery.

  Four 'European' (O.K., British) Short Wheelbase Wagons
 
Submitted for inspiration, four designs of short wheelbase wagons. A mix of old and modern, but the sort of thing I'd like to see Lego produce as its next accurate railway model.

(...) As far as I have always understood it, the rolling resistance is practically the same regardless of the # of wheels...with the exception that very lightweight trains (such as empty container cars) have a higher drag than per lb than (...) (19 years ago, 8-May-05, to lugnet.trains)
 
  Re: 8 Wide LEGO Thomas! (pics)
 
(...) I had some problems while trying to replicate a dummy for the train motor. It seems one plate lower than the where the axle is in a regular wheelset is 1/2 a plate lower than the ground clearance of the motor. Although I don't recall the exact (...)

  Re: 8 Wide LEGO Thomas! (pics)
 
(...) Yes, but how much clearance does one need? These ties are simply 1x4 tiles on the LEGO ties. If you need more clearance that, you also probably need more time at the design table;-) Out of curiousity, to what "other stuff" might you be (...)
