Recent "big loco" and "big car" projects by others have started me thinking about speed surges and wondering if there is a relation. I notice that my longer locos and longer (car length and number of cars) trains experience high frequency (...) (25 years ago, 20-Feb-00, to lugnet.trains)

Hello everybody, I recently left my "dark ages" after 20 years of LEGO abstinence discovering that all of the nice things for LEGO-Trains I couldn't afford as a kid are now highly-desired relicts from the past (12V trains, electric points, signals (...) (25 years ago, 19-Feb-00, to lugnet.trains)
