  Re: Containers
 
(...) Mindspring is just fine (I can access it from work). (...) Ah, now I see. I may use that for a few containers which open. That solution won't work for the Selbulba tile though since the thin walls aren't split in color, and it doesn't manage (...) (25 years ago, 13-Mar-00, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.build)
 
  Re: Containers
 
(...) I have a feeling I'm going to go with 6 wide. TLC is making more and more 6 wide trucks (now if only they'd make some truck wheels suited for double wheel arrangements other than the 2x2 hubs - technic or standard). I only have a few of those (...) (25 years ago, 13-Mar-00, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.build)
 
  Re: Containers
 
(...) I just emailed you a GIF instructions sheet, but to your mindspring account... should I email it to your work account? (...) Nope :) It's what I like to call an IES* There is no actual piece that holds the tile at 90 degrees... it's the (...) (25 years ago, 13-Mar-00, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.build)
 
  Re: Containers
 
(...) I may end up doing that, though I would like for the containers to be able to be stacked beside each other. Of course I haven't seen a solution yet which I have all the necessary orange parts, my solution so far comes the closest (since I (...) (25 years ago, 13-Mar-00, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.build)
 
  Re: Containers
 
(...) Well there's nothing like saying "can't be done" to shake out the solution... (...) Ooh, naughty... :-) Could you generate a JPG or two, or just describe it? (I don't have a way to look at .DATs at work). Hmm, I just tried to look at all the (...) (25 years ago, 13-Mar-00, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.build)
 
  Re: Containers
 
(...) Wrong! :) :) Check this out. I just whipped this up as a solution to your problem. As far as I can tell, it matches all criteria mechanically. The only thing I'm not sure of is whether or not the 1x2x2 panels come in orange... (...) (the ">" (...) (25 years ago, 13-Mar-00, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.build)
 
  Re: WAMALUG heads underground
 
Thanks for the comments... The whole structure will be underground(as a subway should be), there will be a wall that blocks the outside structure from view. I designed the fin-like structure on the outside to channel light(1) into the actual station (...) (25 years ago, 13-Mar-00, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.org.us.wamalug)
 
  Re: WAMALUG heads underground
 
This is really cool. I love the arching roof structure. Captures the style very nicely. I look forward to seeing further construction. later, James Mathis (...) (25 years ago, 13-Mar-00, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.org.us.wamalug)
 
  Re: WAMALUG heads underground
 
This interior rocks. Looks kind of dodgy from the outside but what the heck. Looks like it will consume massive quantities of parts (click hinges??), though, and if you do the arch all the way around, not be very visible. Perhaps only 1/2 and (...)

  Re: Containers
 
(...) If you mean an articulated doublestack... There are at least three examples extant. PNLTC members have one, I have one, and I forget who else. Mine is on my "containers" page. Like you I'm an ex MR and container crazy, it's one of my favorite (...) (25 years ago, 13-Mar-00, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.build)
