Harvey- nice crane! I missed the 4552 by about 20 minutes when the last was sold out from s@h :( I've been working on my own crane as of late: (URL) modeled after an Erie-Lackawanna Industrial Brownhoist(one rebuilt as a diesel(1) for that matter). (...) (24 years ago, 18-Sep-00, to lugnet.trains)

I have a 4.5 v train motor which has developped a loud screaming noise when in use. No minifigs trapped inside, but joking apart I can't see anything obvious. Has anyone ever experienced anything similar ???? Michael Pratt (24 years ago, 18-Sep-00, to lugnet.trains)

I can't speak to the 4.5V sets, but having watched 12V sets being sold on Ebay for awhile (US and Europe), I'd definitely rate the 7810 locomotive and the 7727 cargo train as being rarer than the 7740. I think the 7740 is somewhat like the 4558 in (...) (24 years ago, 18-Sep-00, to lugnet.trains)

(...) They would _almost_ work. They're a millimeter or so too short. The other problem is that they have nubs in the center of the sides, not in the top and bottom. The side nubs cause the frame to be bowed out. Frank (24 years ago, 18-Sep-00, to lugnet.general, lugnet.trains)

Not that I have tried, but would the glass inserts from the sloped windows work? I think they were like a 1x4x3, but they loped back a few studs, which would give them a longer opening, resulting in a taller piece of glass for the insert. Mike (...)
