|
|
Hi Folks, I've posted once or twice on this topic before, but now I'm getting serious :) So if any of you can answer any or all of these questions, I'd much appreciate it! I've got an RCX and the Lego Dacta Control Lab. For those who aren't familiar (...) (24 years ago, 10-Sep-00, to lugnet.trains)

(...) Indeed, that's right: I've bought that set recently for future MOCs, but there must have been other sets with the same part before. I owned thes palm trunk brick in black since years. My guess so far was, it might have been another version of (...) (24 years ago, 10-Sep-00, to lugnet.trains)

| | PNLTC/G2K ambassador car apology
|
|
I would like to apologize to those waiting to receive their ambassador cars back from the G2K event sponsored by PNLTC. The busy weeks leading up to G2K caused me to put other bits of my life on hold. After the event I could no longer continue to (...) (24 years ago, 10-Sep-00, to lugnet.events, lugnet.trains)

(...) I know this is an old topic, but I was in the Navy at the time and didn't even know about LEGO trains. I used to be a member of the NMRA, but I can say from my experience that NMRA folks kinda look down on those who don't 1.Get their stuff (...) (24 years ago, 10-Sep-00, to lugnet.trains)

(...) Look's great, Ben. I like the details of the pistons. All of the other small details add alot as well. One question, what lego sets do you find all of those black palm tree trunks that you use for smokestacks? John (24 years ago, 9-Sep-00, to lugnet.trains)

| | Re: Set 7722
|
|
As was already mentioned, the red steam valves are fairly rare parts, and they also seem to be missing on quite a few train sets. I think this is because they (A) fall off easily and (B) are strange-looking if you don't know where they came from. I (...) (24 years ago, 9-Sep-00, to lugnet.trains)

PNLTC Members, I need info on my two ambassador boxcars[1], how do I get them back? Who do I have to pay to get them? I sent emails out to you guys and have had no reply. I would like them back for the upcoming H & R Train show on October 6, 7, 8 in (...) (24 years ago, 9-Sep-00, to lugnet.trains)

This is one of the finest examples of a box car I've seen yet. There is an approximately 1/6 stud offset on the side panels and sloped roof that gives an amount of relieve that is really impressive. I leave it to Gianluca to elaborate on his (...) (24 years ago, 8-Sep-00, to lugnet.general, lugnet.trains)
