(...) It was a tdi-diesel motor. I don't know with how much horsepower, but I think we where not going too much over 200 km/h. In fac,t I think Larry wasn't fearing for his life, but for a bunch of Lego sets in the back which we bought before. (...) (24 years ago, 23-May-00, to lugnet.trains)

  Re: Train Speed
 
How does that compare with the scale speed of other model trains? Or in general, how does 3 mph compare with other model trains, not considering scale. (...) <snip> (24 years ago, 23-May-00, to lugnet.trains)

(...) I should note that these tests used a bare motor and a few 2x6 plates. I think the top speed with my GP-35 was about 2.5 mph or so. -chris (24 years ago, 22-May-00, to lugnet.trains)
 
  Train Windows II
 
I think I have found some train windows. They are 1x2x2 trans clear with a frame over printed in white. Off an older train I think but which ? Michael Pratt (24 years ago, 22-May-00, to lugnet.trains)
 
  Re: Train Speed
 
Using 1 stud = 1.25" (which is 8 studs wide = a 10' wide train car) it ends up being 128 mph. Of course, pulling some 8 wide cars will undoubtedly slow that down a lot. Mike Poindexter Kevin Loch <kloch@opnsys.com> wrote in message (...) (24 years ago, 22-May-00, to lugnet.trains)

That's the good news. Here's the bad news.... Look at how tall the windows are in that pic. They are about as high as the distance from the bottom of the car up to the bottom of the windows. A LEGO train window is 3 bricks high, so that means the (...) (24 years ago, 22-May-00, to lugnet.trains)

(...) Supposedly you can enter in the diameter of the wheel to calibrate it. It would be interesting to enter in the minifig scale equivalent diameter for the wheel and get minifig-scale speed measurements. KL (24 years ago, 22-May-00, to lugnet.trains)
