(...) I too have modeled a high speed train, a French TGV high speed train. I am glad that you are able to show us what you have made. Great job and I can only see these trains getting better with time. (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)

  Re: Attaching train bogies
 
(...) Well, what I mean is that a big, wide bogie plate is not the way proto trucks appear. Since TLC had designed the wheels to be held in place *parallel* to the axle rather than perpendicular and in proto trucks. I would like to see TLC design (...) (25 years ago, 20-Jan-00, to lugnet.trains)

(...) I assume you mean the piece, how you use them is easy, just replace the bogie plate with a turntable, and in most cases that is all you need to do. Notice, that the train waggon plates, you would have to put a 4x6 plate under the bogie holes (...) (25 years ago, 20-Jan-00, to lugnet.trains)

(...) Use one. Or use a 2x2 turntable piece. For the longest time that is how all my bogies were attached to cars, and it works quite well. James P (25 years ago, 20-Jan-00, to lugnet.trains)

(...) Ok. I'm on the west side, in the suburbs (Wheaton). It takes me about 20 minutes to get to 355 and then I can shoot north from there. (...)
