  Re: DCC Project Survey
 
(...) That's one reason I was reluctant to work on it before Christmas, with the lack of any new trains for 2 years and with all the electronic gizmos Lego have been making I was worried that maybe they had been busy working on a DCC [1] system of (...) (26 years ago, 12-Feb-99, to lugnet.trains)
 
  Re: DCC Project Survey
 
It's a great idea. One Lego should have come up with by now. (3). Perhaps Lego will copy your design and make their own, the same way they stole your crossing track;) BTW, can it be Mac compatible? -John (...) (26 years ago, 12-Feb-99, to lugnet.trains)
 
  Re: DCC Project Survey
 
(...) I'll choose #3 as well. It has been a lifelong dream to have several trains running on a big layout controled from my computer. If the process of putting it togther only requires minimal "amatuer" soldering, I may be up to putting it (...) (26 years ago, 12-Feb-99, to lugnet.trains)
 
  Re: DCC Project Survey
 
(...) Put me in at #3. Of course, if you develop this and sell it, I will finally have to give up using 12V track and accessories and buy 9V. That is, unless you also devlop a version using the 12V center rails :) (...) -- Thomas Main (...) (26 years ago, 12-Feb-99, to lugnet.trains)
 
  Re: Track combinations using two ovals
 
Hi Asher, (...) Or a mirrored one. You can make a fairly presentable dogbone that way. You need to get yourself a copy of track designer. Go to the train depot and get yourself a copy. This is a brilliant program! Far better to doodle with track (...) (26 years ago, 12-Feb-99, to lugnet.trains)
 
  DCC Project Survey
 
How many people are interested in my DCC project? Please email me with an interest level (0-5) 0. I think it's a silly idea. 1. Yes it's interesting but I'm happy with standard LEGO trains. 2. If I could buy it ready-made and it was cheap, I might (...) (26 years ago, 12-Feb-99, to lugnet.trains)
 
  RE: Track combinations using two ovals
 
If you use one of the ovals to do the ends of an oval, and use pieces from the other oval to fill in the sides in a curvy pattern, then you can do anything, as long as you put the same arrangement in both sides of the oval. Simon (URL) What (...) (26 years ago, 12-Feb-99, to lugnet.trains)
 
  Track combinations using two ovals
 
What combinations can I make using pieces from two oval track sets? I've tried several combinations but they always are a little off. -- Asher (26 years ago, 12-Feb-99, to lugnet.trains)
 
  Re: Rocky Ridge... Canyon?
 
(...) My Own Creation IIRC :-) (...) It should be in the RTL FAQ IMO. Carbon 60 (26 years ago, 11-Feb-99, to lugnet.trains)
 
  Re: Rocky Ridge... Canyon?
 
I apologize for my ignorance- what's MOC stand for? I can't find it in the FAQ for rec.models.railroad which I assume it originates from. (nor in a FAQ for rec.toys.lego, which contains no explanations for the frequent use of TLA's in RTL) (...) (26 years ago, 11-Feb-99, to lugnet.trains)
