  Re: What is the rarest Lego Train set?
 
Hi, It is not unusual to find some of these older sets, especially partial sets. But to find a working 118 with the whistle, is in my opinion, the hardest and rarest one to find as well as the 139a which was the electronic unit only. I wish to find (...)

  Re: Do these LEGO Windows exist???
 
(...) I decided to have a looksee at my windows. All of my white 1x3x2s are the old style. It looks to me like the little holes are for tabs on the "glass" to insert into - in fact I'm sure of it, just looked at a 1x6x2 window with shutters which (...)

  Re: What is the rarest Lego Train set?
 
(...) Ben, don't you have some even rarer sets? You know, very old ones that not even Lego knew about back in the 1960s? All joking aside, the rarety of a set does not represent it's worth, either as a model or as a desirable set - hence the 4558, (...) (24 years ago, 15-Sep-00, to lugnet.trains)

  Re: one more MOC: BR 81 switching engine
 
(...) Thanks for your nice words, Frank! In fact my last three engines (T9, B8 and BR81) have no motor. All three of them need a waggon with a motor instead. The advantage is I can run them on both 9V and 12V track without trouble. I just need two (...) (24 years ago, 15-Sep-00, to lugnet.trains)

I recently found my "Int-Europee" sign, from 123 Passenger Coach" in my sons Lego. It's a shame my old Lego was splitted in three lots when i went in to the dark ages. Brings back a lot of memorys... -- Joakim jocke@arjay.nu (24 years ago, 15-Sep-00, to lugnet.trains)

  Re: Train Power Units
 
(...) Dear Michael, 180 and 181 have been the only 4.5V sets with the red bufferless motor-baseplate (in 12V: 726 ). Keep searching for a black 1x4x2 fence door: If you have, it's set 180. Or 1x2x3 classic doors (not to open) in yellow: these came (...) (24 years ago, 15-Sep-00, to lugnet.trains)

  Do these LEGO Windows exist???
 
I probably should rephrase the subject heading to read: "Were these windows ever in a LEGO set?"
