 | | 9V and 12V train speeds?
|
|
If anyone has measured any of these or could easily do it, I'd be curious to know how fast both 9V and 12V engines are, in any load conditions, e.g. motor alone, engine alone, engine with any number of cars; to compare with 4.5V engines, which seem (...) (26 years ago, 24-Feb-99, to lugnet.trains)

(...) I don't think 3225 is Town, Jr. at all. Kind of a crappy design (I don't like mis-use of logwall bricks). It is *small*, and (I'm sure) not very prototypical (which isn't a problem for me). But it is a *cheaper* train than LEGO has ever (...) (26 years ago, 24-Feb-99, to lugnet.trains)

The rescue helicopter arrived on scene within a minute, but alas...there is no hospital. I thought he was finished, but the resilience of LEGO people alway astounds me. Miraculously when he was pulled from the helicopter he was unharmed! He returned (...) (26 years ago, 24-Feb-99, to lugnet.trains)

(...) It is small and has fewer pieces than other train sets, but I don't think it is "juniorized" completely. It uses mostly regular pieces and I think its low piece count can be attributed to its low price more than anything else. Definitely worth (...) (26 years ago, 24-Feb-99, to lugnet.trains)
