  Re: 8-Wide Rutland Gondola
 
(...) I have to say, that really makes the case for eight wide! It just looks 'right' Tim (16 years ago, 24-Jul-08, to lugnet.trains, FTX)
 
  Re: Maryland & Pennsylvania RR 4-4-0 #6
 
(...) Cale, you're my hero! I've struggled with 4 wheeled pony trucks, and this is the first one using the small BBB wheels I've seen that negotiates around the pistons in one piece.

  Re: Dalylight train, Southern Pacific Coast
 
(...) Fantastic work! I've always loved this train, the color scheme is just so striking. The solution you've used to get the cars so close together is something I very well may have to look into myself for my Tequila Sunrise. The idea of having the (...)

  Re: San Diego Coaster train
 
Just an update. I got to run my SD Coaster train at the NMRA 2008 show. What a blast. But even more fun for me was seeing Swoofty's Metrolink version. Seems he never saw James Mathis version, and he based his on mine. I also got a chance to run my (...) (16 years ago, 23-Jul-08, to lugnet.trains)

  Re: How to hide wires for Train Layout
 
(...) Your extensive use of wiring requires that you raise you layout off of the baseplates. Using large bricks (4 x 16) or building a surface of 2 x 4 or similar bricks and raise your track by one brick level would allow for small conduits where (...) (16 years ago, 21-Jul-08, to lugnet.trains)

  Re: Underweight SNOT
 
(...) Hi Tim, Just build 8-wide trains to remove limits ;) Well... I think we can add a remember about SNOT 180 in 1-wide (URL) (16 years ago, 19-Jul-08, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.build.schleim, FTX)
 
  Underweight SNOT
 
(URL) Hi all, I decided to play around with some SNOT ideas that can be contained a single 1-wide brick. Restricting it to such a narrow base means that detailed walls can be designed around the PFS components in a locomotive or wagon. Hope you like (...)

  Re: Maryland & Pennsylvania RR 4-4-0 #6
 
(...) Thanks. The front truck doesn't support any of the locos weight which isn't prototypical but it works. As I was building #6 I was worried that the lack of truck support and the solid boiler would cause it to be nose heavy. I even had boat (...) (16 years ago, 15-Jul-08, to lugnet.trains, FTX)
 
  Re: Maryland & Pennsylvania RR 4-4-0 #6
 
That front truck is a masterpiece, does it support any of the weight of the loco or is it held on the track purely by its own weight? Tim (16 years ago, 14-Jul-08, to lugnet.trains, FTX)
