(...) Hi John, yes your trial was a little successful. ;-) I really thought you could buy all kind of roof bricks via shop at home. At least I'm quite sure you can get the 45° sloped bricks in black: that's right, isn't it? And yes we have had the (...) (25 years ago, 11-Apr-00, to lugnet.trains)

Hey Will- Don't mess around-- go out and buy Model Railroader Cyclopedia Vol 1 Steam Locomotives. It contains schematics of every iteration of steam engine built in the US. Vol 2 is dedicated to diesels. Together they are the bible for model (...) (25 years ago, 11-Apr-00, to lugnet.trains)

I'm starting to expand into trains now and need some reference material. Can anyone point me to pictures of the following (real or scale models): 4-4-2 Atlantic (I have one mostly done in lDraw but I need some more angles to work from) 0-6-0 (...) (25 years ago, 11-Apr-00, to lugnet.trains)

Okay, I built *one* more 4 wide car -- a parlor car from the 1939 Hiawatha streamliner run by Milwaukee Road. Now, check this out: I have 4 pics to show you. The first is my 4 wide taken directly from my scanner (100%): (URL) Now this next pic is (...) (25 years ago, 11-Apr-00, to lugnet.trains) !

Wow. It is a real shame that TLC would not make such a high quality set. I know I would splurge (uh, spend) whatever it took to buy one of those! Great job on the engine shed, could you post a few pictures from the other side? Wayne G. (...) (25 years ago, 11-Apr-00, to lugnet.trains)

Actually, I was trying to pull Ben's leg and have him think the shed was a set (since he collectively pulled ours;). Hopefully, it dazed him briefly;-) Mike is about right-- I bought 44 classic train sets to get the black 4x3 and 3x3 slopes for the (...) (25 years ago, 11-Apr-00, to lugnet.trains)

Oh, I thought he was referring to the red windows on his engine shed. I couldn't figure out what recent set would have had those (besides the service pack or some freestyle sets)... got it now, I think. Thanks jt (...) North Georgia LEGO Train Club (...) (25 years ago, 11-Apr-00, to lugnet.trains)

He is referring to set #3225, which is ironic, as it first appeared in Germany, IIRC. Of course, John bought 46 copies, which is excessive, even for set hogs like the GMLTC. ;-) Mike Poindexter (...) bricks (...) in (...) (25 years ago, 10-Apr-00, to lugnet.trains)
