  Re: So who wants to update Track Designer?
 
(...) My list is with the NGLTC individual who took over MB's Train Depot site. However the general ideas in it where. -Link to exsiting L-CAD programs. - Use LCAD Parts libary of baseplates instead of set numbers? - Automatic Layout generation. Not (...)

  Re: So who wants to update Track Designer?
 
(...) That's cool, things have been a bit slow at work and I'll have some time to work on it. Is there a list of suggestions somewhere ? Leonardo (24 years ago, 30-Sep-00, to lugnet.trains)
 
  Re: Gondola Prototype. Looking for opinions
 
<snip> (...) Thanks if he would only come... (...) Well yes *but* all the ones I have are red which doesn't look good with blue (or brown which I am trying to do this in). They also doesn't jive with the length of my cars. (...) Yes but so far I (...) (24 years ago, 30-Sep-00, to lugnet.trains)
 
  Re: Gondola Prototype. Looking for opinions
 
(...) The train base plates will let you hide the tops of the wheelsets. Just my two cents, Chris P.S. I should mention that the gondola looks very cool. (24 years ago, 30-Sep-00, to lugnet.trains)

  Re: New Sketches/Photos up
 
(...) funny, MY Marklin catalog shows only the end 2 units with bogies, the center three are one axle per end. (URL) then click on featured model, DB cargo sprinter (this link may not work forever) ++Lar (24 years ago, 30-Sep-00, to lugnet.trains)
 
  Re: New Sketches/Photos up
 
The Cargo Sprinter, yet another model I've had my eye on (the Beyer-Garrett is the other). In my Marklin catalog it show the flatbed with bogies. I'll try to remember to scan tonight and add to Brickshelf. BTW I figued I'd build 6 or 5 wide (...) (24 years ago, 29-Sep-00, to lugnet.trains)
 
  Re: So who wants to update Track Designer?
 
(...) If Leonardo has the willingness and ability and the time, then he would seem to be the man for the job. I think a good chunk of us here have the first two - it's the available time that is the hard one. :-) SRC (24 years ago, 29-Sep-00, to lugnet.trains)
 
  Re: So who wants to update Track Designer?
 
(...) I did the NGLTC tables, but the thing about Track Designer is that you can't export/import single elements, its all or nothing. Maybe who ever updates it can add that feature. jt (24 years ago, 29-Sep-00, to lugnet.trains)

  Re: NALUG takes 2nd at Great Edmonton Train Show
 
(...) Sadly, I've got no revolutionary new assembly technique to share here. It's just a bunch of 1x1x4 antennae for stanchions, with the long plastic piping found on podracers snipped to length for the handrail, and a wee tiny dollop of "ShooGoo" (...)

  Re: So who wants to update Track Designer?
 
No one else with MFC/C/C++ experience has volunteered so unless there is any objection I'll offer it to Leonardo. I'll try and collect all the source code together this weekend. Matt (24 years ago, 29-Sep-00, to lugnet.trains)
 
  Re: New Sketches/Photos up
 
Nice to see another Cargo Sprinter model. It certainly is less "beefy" than the one I built. The profile of your Cargo Sprinter allows the load of 4 wide containers to look good. I find that this Cargo Sprinter model is quite a challenge to get the (...) (24 years ago, 29-Sep-00, to lugnet.trains)
 
  Re: NALUG takes 2nd at Great Edmonton Train Show
 
(...) Well considering that train bridges are currently the prime focus of StRuCtures, it's a natural for NALug to showcase them. The simple monorail one at the show last week was a basic concept test - larger and more elaborate ones are on the way. (...)

In lugnet.trains, Matthew Bates writes: Hi, I've used Matt's TD a long time ago and I saw that the train tracks were being added to the LCAD library in the current vote, so I had the idea of turning it into a plugin for LeoCAD. That way it would be (...) (24 years ago, 29-Sep-00, to lugnet.trains)
 
  Re: Gondola Prototype. Looking for opinions
 
(...) Yup the Underside is just something I hadn't gotten to yet. I will beef it up when I get a chance to go back and work on it some more. (Actually it's hard to tell because of the camera angle but the other end and side arn't done yet either :-) (...) (24 years ago, 29-Sep-00, to lugnet.trains)

I've finally gotten some photos of my Cargo Sprinter design, along with a sketch of my BR Class 24/5 design...Ya, I know, cough's&Sneezles spread Deesel's :) (URL) would be appricated. I'll take some photos of the Class 25's when I get my railway (...) (24 years ago, 29-Sep-00, to lugnet.trains)
