(...) Yes. I was powering the RCX from the train speed controller wall wart. (...) Dunno. It did not seem to. I would not use multiple train motors as a load, though. (26 years ago, 23-Dec-98, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.trains)

I'm sorry. LEGO '98 bricks are not backwards compatible with your old outdated plates. We suggest you upgrade to DirectBrick7.0 technology and reinstall.

Hey all. I just bought 6453 Com-Link Cruiser. Something about it yells "THIS is what you wanted for that monorail design!" Okay, great. But I'm trying to build it up a bit in the front, and I can't find pieces that match the angle. I guess that's a (...) (26 years ago, 14-Dec-98, to lugnet.general, lugnet.build, lugnet.trains)
