(...) Right, since every train is wider than the track.... But I think with the small radius of track 8-wides in curves (especially when they are a little longer) look not too good. But I don't want to restart the 8-wide discussion. I have decides (...) (24 years ago, 12-Sep-00, to lugnet.trains)

Err...um...in some ways it is a tough question in other ways it is an easy question, and of course the answer is that it depends. What if 9v trains went away... If LEGO is discontinuing trains, shame on them, but I'll continue to build. After all, (...) (24 years ago, 12-Sep-00, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.dear-lego)

John, Well I guess the first thing I'd have to do (like many others) is hord all the 9V stuff I could get my hands on, mainly track, engines and wheel sets. Really I don't think I would "bail" on trains, in the past year and a half I haven't bought (...) (24 years ago, 12-Sep-00, to lugnet.trains)

(...) I think I would remain active in Lego Trains. Whether or not I stayed with 9V or converted to the putative new system depends on the details. I convert all my 12V stuff to 9V, not because (V is better than 12V operationally, (it isn't, 12V has (...) (24 years ago, 12-Sep-00, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.lego.direct, lugnet.dear-lego)

Wie schön! Ben- Please commend Andreas for me for his nice model! He uses 2 of my favorite building techniques-- building 8 wide and covering as many studs as possible with tiles. An excellent looking MOC. Which makes me think: Have I ever seen a (...) (24 years ago, 11-Sep-00, to lugnet.trains)

(...) Hey, that is a great switcher. I noticed that it had an 8/5 wide set up too.[1] I think the mix of 5 wide hoods with 8 wide cabs looks great. Unfortunately, I think that this is going to make 1x2-center-stud plates harder to come by. It looks (...) (24 years ago, 11-Sep-00, to lugnet.trains)
