(...) For the record: I am very confident of the future of trains and I do not think this contest has grand significance. But I do not think ANY company runs "just a fun contest." If trains were doomed, we'd hear nothing about it. They'd just (...) (24 years ago, 5-Jan-01, to lugnet.trains)

Hi Frank, (...) Thanks, the cardoors give the chimney a more aerodynamical style. I thought about cutting the white round 2x2x1 and use just one half in front, followed by the cardoors... BUT: I won't cut LEGO bricks!! The rods-maniac is simple! (...) (24 years ago, 5-Jan-01, to lugnet.trains)
