(...) Mike, it depends. Are you a lego purist? (...) Space to protect LEGO purists (...) If you are not a lego purist, then open up the back of the point and hack off the tab. I know that there is at least 2 web pages with descriptions of the (...) (25 years ago, 26-Nov-99, to lugnet.trains)
 
  Re: Building Bridges
 
(...) A lift bridge or a draw bridge? (...) Why would you use mindstorms to control the bridge except perhaps as a aproach sensor? It's easier to do that with manual blocks, than with electronics. Although, I suppose you could get it to work fine. (...) (25 years ago, 26-Nov-99, to lugnet.trains)
 
  Re: Reverse Loop using mindstorms
 
(...) The switchback is on Matt Bates' Train Depot. The actual page is here: (URL) chance you will LDraw your monstrous steam loco, the 4-8-4 one? I love that thing, but have never seen the original. I suppose if yours is a model, mine would be a (...) (25 years ago, 26-Nov-99, to lugnet.trains)

  Reverse Loop using mindstorms
 
Hi All, Building away last night on a new train creation and something occured to me. Has anyone used mindstorms to control a dual reverse loop circuit? You would need to block three sections of track (for two reverse loops). Sensors could detect (...) (25 years ago, 26-Nov-99, to lugnet.trains)
 
  Re: Building Bridges
 
Hi, all: I'm in the midst of a large bridge project myself. I'm adhering to the 2 plate slope / 1 plate rate-of-change guideline, but for other reasons. I'd add that you probably shouldn't climb sharply through turns - that just complicates the (...) (25 years ago, 26-Nov-99, to lugnet.trains)

(...) But that e-mail address is only for the web club. They won't answer such "trivial" questions... (...) I can. It give some a flash/shockwave movie thingie. Maybe your browser doesn't have that.
