NOBODY makes better eurotrash passenger than James. Nobody. Each of his creations tops the last. Wow. A Talgo train! Who would have thunk it. What a clever mechanism. And in only 6 wide to boot. Now pendularize it! :-) (25 years ago, 24-Feb-00, to lugnet.trains)

(...) So you think I should start on a CAD talgo? or the lighted nose piece? Doing a whole train set is hard, but if I start with my amt 2000 and do other cars from there well.. maybe as for working for TLC, yep if i did jr would be no more, i cant (...) (25 years ago, 24-Feb-00, to lugnet.trains)

Your right, I'm against 8 wide and havn't built any 8 wide. Why not? Lots of reasons: 1) 8 wide demands larger scenery and buildings. If your logic for building 8 wide is because LEGO minifig trucks are 6 wide then you should make all your buildings (...) (25 years ago, 24-Feb-00, to lugnet.trains)

(...) Just going to pop in here: The gauges are indeed the same, or close enough. My 4.5v will run on 9v no prob (well, I swapped the motor with the 9v, but the cars work just fine), and 9v cars will work on 4.5v track. And I belive that 12v is (...) (25 years ago, 24-Feb-00, to lugnet.trains)

(...) Not to be picky, but there have been 3 voltages: 4.5v, 9v, and 12v. I've never seen any 12v and played with 4.5v once, a long time ago, so I can't comment on the gauge of the different tracks. Ben Roller (25 years ago, 24-Feb-00, to lugnet.trains)
