(...) Well, that's what this subthread is about, after all. :-) 5 is too low IMHO and I told you it was to a close friend that I sold a set for 10 so you could derive that 10 is too low too to the general public. The question posed several posts (...) (25 years ago, 8-Feb-00, to lugnet.trains)

The width of Lego track is almost exactly the same as Lionel, which is about equal to "O", or close enough for all intents and purposes of this discussion. The last time I was in a train store (1 week ago) I looked at the "O" scale and Lionel trains (...) (25 years ago, 8-Feb-00, to lugnet.trains)

No, no I meant my post as something independent of the stuff you all were discussing, jesting, about. I just want to know the thought process behind 6 or 8 wide. I have followed several threads but it just isn't clear to me. The only thing I can (...) (25 years ago, 8-Feb-00, to lugnet.trains)

Yesterday while browsing multiple train sites, I came across someone who built a type of centipede train using the LEGO Insectoid legs. They said it was really fun to watch when used on a curved track. However, I failed to bookmark the site and now (...) (25 years ago, 8-Feb-00, to lugnet.trains)

Nick & John & All, I was jesting in fun, no offense to John or anything, I guess I should have posted to off-topic.fun or something. I think John is a great guy. I have to experiment a little with the 6 / 8 debate. I have a lot of trains, I have not (...) (25 years ago, 8-Feb-00, to lugnet.trains)

I have a question about the 8 vs. 6 wide. It revolves around the track width. Given that the 8 wide is approximately related to O scale, what width do the tracks suggest the scale to be? Personally, I have never seen a train that was only as wide as (...) (25 years ago, 8-Feb-00, to lugnet.trains)

Carrie- I thought that you might think Scott's admonition rather cryptic so I thought I'd clarify for you. But first, welcome! I think it is an exciting time to be a trainiac:-) Now, about the 8 wide crack;-) some of us aren't happy with the toyish (...) (25 years ago, 8-Feb-00, to lugnet.trains)
