(URL) are excellent! I especially like this car: (URL) chance of building instructions so I can try to modify it to fit a minifig? The detail on the train cars is nice as well. They look very realistic with all that corrugation. Keep up the good (...) (24 years ago, 24-May-00, to lugnet.town, lugnet.trains, lugnet.build)

(...) Nice for USTrash :). But, to answer your question, yes a 3 Axle truck will clear a corner, I had them under my dinner car for a while, and they will corner if you have the axles right in a row. James P (24 years ago, 24-May-00, to lugnet.trains)

Yep, that clears it up. You think the low slopes (the 4x3x1, 2x3x1, or 1x3x1) would make a better nose. I thought you meant the 2x2x2 steep slopes. Thanks, Chris (...) (24 years ago, 24-May-00, to lugnet.trains)

(...) Yeah, it does look like a long engine in one of the pics. I actually have to fix the front coupler, it swings out too far on the curves and derails the cars when backing up. Now we have enough horsepower to pull all those heavy cars Tom is (...) (24 years ago, 24-May-00, to lugnet.trains)
