Hi, I'd been planning to pick up a Freight & Crane Railway for a while, to put around my christmas tree and get started with LEGO trains. After seeing your backorder (I'm not sure from where), I called S@H this morning and ordered a Freight & Crane, (...) (24 years ago, 9-Nov-00, to lugnet.trains)

Nice work, Eric K. One comment... "regular" MR layouts often don't connect all the streets. Since what you are doing is a seris of scenes, you often get better visual separation if you have streets run off the edge of the "map" and not connect to (...)

Well done. Your solutions are elegant. The front window looks great, and it is done very simply. The floating black box is a great solution for creating a diaphragm too. The roof made of plates instead of slopes is a very good compromise. Thanks for (...) (24 years ago, 9-Nov-00, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.general)

Dear Sonnich, well done!!! The "nose" of your latest creations is very nice. That shows that realistic looking trains could be build in the "normal" way (No SNOT-technique)!
