| (...) A brief update ... I got it built a while ago but only today tried putting it on the tracks. Bad news, I'm afraid. To make it work on LEGO curves, you need to remove the 4x6 tile with technic peg from the 3-axle trucks and add some tiles (...) (18 years ago, 18-May-07, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.cad.ldd, FTX)
