(...) Thanks for the comments Tim As one anonymous MOCPages reviewer has already remarked, this is yet another derivative of the Super Chief set. That I'll freely admit, as I intended it to be that way from the get-go. I wanted casual LEGO fans (who (...) (17 years ago, 25-Sep-07, to lugnet.trains)

Matt had raved about these to me after the show, but while I had noticed the doors, I hadn't noticed the SNOT frame, and he didn't mention it! Have you found it any advantage or is it a just a nice builder's feature? Samarth Moray also built a (URL) (...) (17 years ago, 24-Sep-07, to lugnet.trains, FTX)

After three years of brooding, I've finally decided to build my own interpetation of the excellent 10020 Super Chief set. In doing so, I wanted to pay homage to the 'Diesel That Did It' -- namely EMD's WWII-era FT locomotive...while still keeping in (...) (17 years ago, 24-Sep-07, to lugnet.trains)

(3 URLs) Full Gallery> Here's a little number (GP20 to be specific) that I debuted at NMRA 2007. It is based on the Milwaukee Road GP20 conversions. The model flew below the radar of most attending NMRA, blending in well into the background. But it (...) (17 years ago, 23-Sep-07, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.build.schleim, lugnet.announce.moc, FTX) !

Hi train friends! I'm going to show you my last LEGO creation. This is another tramway from Turin (Italy), my hometown, but this tramway is an historic car. It was designed with the ideas of Peter Witt and it was built in the 1932-33 by FIAT. Peter (...) (17 years ago, 19-Sep-07, to lugnet.trains, FTX)
