The Code pilot is not fit for this job. Unfortunately you can't program the CP to distuiguish between bar codes during run. It can only sense the speed of a passing light pattern, which may or may not be a bar code picture. Eric Brok -------- Visit (...) (25 years ago, 10-Jan-00, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.trains)

I built a version of the decoupler mentioned earlier in this thread. It works remarkably well! I don't have the exact brick mentioned on the web page, but I do have an R2D2 foot, which is very similar: a short technic beam with a 4-plate high 30 deg (...) (25 years ago, 10-Jan-00, to lugnet.trains)

how bad is their shipping cost??? with the 17.5% VAT removed, it would only cost about 55.50 USD to order the set from them, and I'm wondering if it would be more than 11.00 shipping to get the set. Anyone that's ordered from them??? Tamy (...) Keep (...) (25 years ago, 9-Jan-00, to lugnet.trains)

Just looking for some opinions. What would be a "fair" price for this set? I realize it's all about supply and demand, and of course, who has Ben Franklin burning a hole in thier pocket, but what would you pay for a MISB 4563? Cliff (25 years ago, 9-Jan-00, to lugnet.trains)
