  Re: Railroad Dilemma
 
Ben, Thanks Ben. I will try it out tonight. In question 2, I was just saying if I ran one train around track#1, and had the switch going to track#2 (and not having the controller on, all the trains would be switched off), would it cause a problem, (...) (26 years ago, 25-Feb-99, to lugnet.trains)

All, see my comments below prefixed with 'ben>>' (...) ben>> Lego trains seem pretty blow up proof, but I'll keep trying. If I find a way to blow them up using only Lego pieces, I'll let you know. (...) ben>> Yes. Simply be careful not to cause a (...) (26 years ago, 25-Feb-99, to lugnet.trains)

power source? do you mean the black speed regulator? (26 years ago, 24-Feb-99, to lugnet.trains)
 
  Re: Lego made a Caboose!
 
I think #3225 is a decent set I guess, (I looked over it a few more times since my initial post), but I wanted more train cars, and I bought #2126 instead, simply because I thought it was better for a good selection of different kinds of train cars.

  Re: Railroad Dilemma
 
That sounds great Matt, in regards to TD3! I guess my biggest concern involving the train situation is I would like to have one switch rail between two lines or different tracks, each having its own controller. I have a few questions regarding this (...) (26 years ago, 24-Feb-99, to lugnet.trains)
 
  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 (...)

  Re: Lego made a Caboose!
 
(...) 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)
 
  Re: Yet another PNTLC event
 
Funny, that's not what happens in my movie clip-- he returns to the track and buys it again...and again...and again on continuous loop. Sometimes frame by frame! It's Bill Murray in some Legoan Punxsuwtawney thing... BTW, I have access to new in the (...) (26 years ago, 24-Feb-99, to lugnet.trains)
 
  Re: Yet another PNTLC event
 
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)
