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)
