  Re: Gray version of #740 12V Blue Transformer
 
(...) Do you have a picture? I know an alternative set number to 740 was 710 but that was blue also, I saw it on DEE-BAY. (URL) much help but anyway. Who made the transformer? The 740 I've just got is made by Siemens - says on the bottom. Does it (...) (25 years ago, 22-Apr-00, to lugnet.trains)
 
  Gray version of #740 12V Blue Transformer
 
Hi, I recently aquired a 12V train transformer that looks exactly like #740. However, instead of #740's blue color, this one is gray. Does anyone have info about this version of the set? Does it have different set number? What year did it come out? (...) (25 years ago, 22-Apr-00, to lugnet.trains)

  Re: Cross Tracks (4519) question
 
I do exactly this and it works without a problem. I have two loops that cross each other twice; I must admit that visitors can't resist the temptation to run one train into the other. Cary (...) (25 years ago, 21-Apr-00, to lugnet.trains)
 
  Cross Tracks (4519) question
 
I have a simple question about the 4519 (URL) cross tracks. Is the voltage from one track isolated from the crossing track? Basically I want to have two mainlines cross each other while maintaining separate power supplies. Can this be done with a (...) (25 years ago, 21-Apr-00, to lugnet.trains)
 
  Re: wanted: 2x2 classic windows
 
Gary (or anyone), Can you tell me what other sets (if the number isn't huge) come with the 1x2x2 yellow window. I have a few of these windows and I am pretty sure they did come from that old Shell set (325). I personlly found them at a garage sale (...)

  Re: wanted: 2x2 classic windows
 
(...) Yes a collector friend in Germany told me about that rare 1x3x2 blue window. It's in the locomotive, if I remember correctly. It's the only occurrance of a 1x3x2 window in a color besides red or white. I hope that Brad Justus confirms that (...)

  Re: wanted: 2x2 classic windows
 
(...) Lindsay, 1x2x2 windows do exist in black. But I can't say in what set. I purchased two of these, as well as one 1x1x2 (thin tall) window in black in a German toy stores train parts box back in the 80's. This wooden box with lots of partitions (...)

  Re: wanted: 2x2 classic windows
 
(...) Those are indeed great items--and I'm amazed at how rare grey really are. The fact that they were never made in black, I find just...weird. I'm interested in what they eventually say about the *other* Classic window moulds (especially the (...) (25 years ago, 19-Apr-00, to lugnet.market.buy-sell-trade, lugnet.trains, lugnet.general)

  Re: MOC: 'Long nosed diesel'
 
(...) A few more ideas, can't the standard 1x4 lighting bar (5310) be used with a tile on top, etc. Alternatively you could use a pair of the lights used in 5310 on their side - I don't have any of those lights so I'm not sure about space. (...) (...) (25 years ago, 19-Apr-00, to lugnet.trains)
 
  Re: wanted: 2x2 classic windows
 
OK fellows, I want to chime in here for a moment..... I can't confirm this one way or another. What made me agree with Ben about this is the fact that those 352 Windmill instructions show the different levels of the building progression in different (...)

(...) "don't" know anyone? If that is what you meant, then I guess it would be a cultural thing. There is no higher praise for a man in the US than to be called a stud (synonymous with "The Man" or "Da Man" as in "You da Man!"). Translations aside, (...)
