(...) Thanks, but this window orientation gets credit to someone other than me. I've seen it used this way on someone else's train engine before. My sincere apologies for not remembering by name you who have previously showcased this studs-forward (...) (24 years ago, 26-Aug-00, to lugnet.trains)

James, Looks cool. I had thought about using one of those windows studs forward, but I couldn't make it look right. Go figure, it looks great on your model. Two quick questions: (1) why the garage doors? and (2) why the asymmetric windows on the cab (...) (24 years ago, 25-Aug-00, to lugnet.trains)

This is a version 1 design study for the German DB Cargo Sprinter container train set. Very compressed compared to its real-life counterpart, it looks a bit odd in relation. But, I think it imparts some familiarity. I have tried to use a minimum of (...) (24 years ago, 25-Aug-00, to lugnet.trains)

If we are not careful we could end up down the same road that railway anoraks go sometimes whilst away from their sandwiches. I can see a time when certain LEGO MOC models are banned because; 1.

Clarifying the train, length, configuration, and other details... track length was 3343 ft, not 3232 as originally posted. This smaller number was the uncalibrated value from the LEGO odometer. As far as an equivalent number of official meters, I (...) (24 years ago, 25-Aug-00, to lugnet.trains)

(...) This is quite impressive! How were you guys able to run three engines on the long train? I'm assuming that all wheels were powered, I've been told that the standard LEGO train controller can safely handle four motors at the most. (24 years ago, 25-Aug-00, to lugnet.trains)
