While surfing again through the georgeous PNLTC record gallery I found this engine including the interesting big wheels with metal rims. www.brickshelf.com/g...190013.jpg Who is the owner of that engine? Has anybody made similar rims in the right (...) (24 years ago, 22-Aug-00, to lugnet.trains)
 
  The Great Int'l Wreck of 2000 (was Re: How many ambassador...)
 
Okay. Since I've been fingered (thanks a lot, David >;-), I proudly accept full responsibility for the Great International LEGO Train Wreck of 2000! In my own defense, a support had fallen from under the elevated track, and I was trying to prop it (...) (24 years ago, 22-Aug-00, to lugnet.trains)
 
  Re: 161- it' s dead :(
 
(...) Thanks, will try that, any hints for a good anti-corrosive? I'm not sure what the contacts are made of. Looks like some copper alloy, but then again that may be because of the corrosion :) -Wessel (24 years ago, 22-Aug-00, to lugnet.trains)

  Re: World Record LEGO Bridge

  161- it' s dead :(

  Pinball Machine DAT
 
A few folks have requested how the pinball machine in the Spamcake Diner was built. I've added a link next to its picture so you can DL a DAT version at your leisure.

(...) missing (...) Thanks Ben and Sproaticulus! I've been on vacation so I haven't done much answering and updating, but I will get a good pic of the front and put it on the diner page to complete it. BTW, for those looking at the diner page now, (...) (24 years ago, 22-Aug-00, to lugnet.loc.us.ca.sf, lugnet.trains, lugnet.publish, lugnet.build)
