Hi All, I recently won a 165 in auction but when I started building it I noticed that the instructions called for a grey baseplate with dots on the studs which indicated where the first layer of bricks should be placed. The baseplate in the set I (...) (25 years ago, 21-Jan-00, to lugnet.trains)

Wow! What a nose job for the Shinkansen! Unbelievably beautiful. I think you finally find the way to realiscally model the noses for not only the Shinkansen, but also the airliners and the space shuttle. Congratulations! Hao-yang Wang (25 years ago, 21-Jan-00, to lugnet.trains)

Use one. You want a loose boogie plate because that reduces your friction while turning. They seem to spin too easily when off of the tracks, but on the tracks, they work great. Mike Nick Goetz <ngoetz@iquest.net> wrote in message (...) (25 years ago, 20-Jan-00, to lugnet.trains)

Can someone share with me the proper way to attach a bogie to a non-train platform? In other words, attach it to a standard 6x6 plate. My guess is to use a Technic plate but I can't figure out if I use one or two, or if there is a better method. It (...) (25 years ago, 20-Jan-00, to lugnet.trains)
