(...) It's a great idea. If you're impure. :-) Purists (and I'm mostly in this camp) like to see what they can do without using non LEGO things. But there's nothing wrong with your suggestion. (25 years ago, 14-Mar-00, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.build)

You could always "accidentally" stick a MegaBlock plate back there. It would be obscured from view and I don't think they have markings on the studs, but maybe they do. (I don't use MB, so I wouldn't know). I know Tyco had blank studs, but their (...) (25 years ago, 14-Mar-00, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.build)

It is not painted. I took some pictures and they turned out like that as well. You need to use all natural lighting and turn off the flash when photographing Lego. The flash changes the color due to the reflection, as well as the poor color digital (...) (25 years ago, 14-Mar-00, to lugnet.trains)

I don't think it is the lighting. Usually you can recover the colors by adjusting settings for the picture in a program like Photoshop or even Microsoft Photo Editor. I did not succeed in doing so, so my guess is this person PAINTED the tracks (...) (25 years ago, 14-Mar-00, to lugnet.trains)

(...) Hmmm, we may be running into the limit of lego tolerances here. When I tried the assembly, it was clearly just the letters on top of the studs that kept it from working perfectly. In fact, it does actually hold together, and works just as I (...) (25 years ago, 14-Mar-00, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.build)

(...) It's more than just the letters, the actual stud is ever so slightly taller. When I gently slid a plate into a chanel made by reversing two thin walls, the top of the stud caught the edge of the wall. The two stud wide channel with 3 plates + (...)

Any ideas what to do with multiple copies of waggon set 2126? They have been sold out in Germany during the last month and I collected "some" of them as cheap brickyard. (URL) far I have only build up the beer waggons and have left a quite big (...) (25 years ago, 14-Mar-00, to lugnet.trains)
