  Re: Remote Turnouts and Decouplers
 
(...) You need to have two power wires. The first wire connects to the motor in the switch house and to the polarity switch, either end of the switch is ok. The second wire connects to the power source and to the other end of the switch. Turn your (...) (23 years ago, 30-Jan-02, to lugnet.trains)

  Re: Remote Turnouts and Decouplers
 
Steve & All, (...) All right, thanks for the hard work! Now, let me see if I get this: 1) Modify the switch as stated above. 2) Build the switchhouse as stated above. Where does that polarity switch come into play? I have little experience with (...) (23 years ago, 30-Jan-02, to lugnet.trains)

  Re: Vintage train part identification
 
(...) Ben B. and Larry P. are both timely and correct. Sybrand Bonsma has an Unofficial Fabuland Homepage. (URL) is the absolute best place to go to research anything having to do with Fabuland or suspected of being Fabuland. You will find a (...)

  12V Lego trains in South wales, UK
 
Hi, I just recieved my new battery tender from Lego, I never had the 7722 set, but liked it, so I built the loco. It was powered by a normal battery box on a wagon underframe, I now have the proper thing! My signal and trip posts I ordered a few (...) (23 years ago, 29-Jan-02, to lugnet.trains)
 
  Looking for 4531 track layout suggestions scan...anyone?
 
Does anyone have a scan of the track layout suggestions sheet that comes with the 4531(Switching Rails), I believe it shows 6 different layout ideas. I'm trying to help someone with a problem and they're refering to this sheet, but I don't have a (...) (23 years ago, 29-Jan-02, to lugnet.trains)
 
  Re: Vintage train part identification
 
Ah phooey, I was trying to do 2 things at once, it was a Fabuland piece like Ben said. I just got post happy. I'll take a look over on the set database to try to date and reference the other train/Fabuland parts I don't know in this lot. This gives (...) (23 years ago, 29-Jan-02, to lugnet.trains)
 
  Re: Vintage train part identification
 
(...) See Ben's reply, I think he nailed it... he's identifying it as a Fabuland truck body. Your description fits that part. (I have (well, Taya has) some in other colors, (but not yellow) thanks to my good friend Mike Collins in Ipswich, UK who (...) (23 years ago, 29-Jan-02, to lugnet.trains)
 
  Re: Vintage train part identification
 
I'm already at work, I hope I can splain it to you. 4 x 6 rows of studs on the inside. 1 studs width all the way around that is flat like a tile, then the 1 brick high sides. The underside is just like a regular plate. The whole thing is 6 x 8. No (...) (23 years ago, 29-Jan-02, to lugnet.trains)

(...) Steve, Did you get around to the DAT file for the switch house? We're still eagerly anticipating it. :-) Thanks. Play well. Tim Strutt 8^) (23 years ago, 29-Jan-02, to lugnet.trains)
 
  Re: Vintage train part identification
 
(...) Note... this set has not just a one piece vehicle base ala Town Jr., but the wheels are permanently attached to it. That would elicit howls of rage today, I expect... But I love Fabuland anyway. (23 years ago, 29-Jan-02, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.fabuland)
 
  Re: Vintage train part identification
 
(...) Maybe Ben B. knows what it is... but to me there wasn't enough there to work with. Can you post a somewhat bigger pic and maybe a pic of the other side? Are those studs on the inside or what? Thanks! (23 years ago, 29-Jan-02, to lugnet.trains)

  Vintage train part identification
 
I got this part in a big lot of train bits. (URL) tried looking it up on Partsref and Peeron with no luck. It doesn't even have a part #. The only reference it has on it is 2-01 on the bottom (unless that is the #, but I tried it also no luck). (...) (23 years ago, 29-Jan-02, to lugnet.trains)

  Re: Gear and Axle Strength (was Re: Power Pullin' With My Tractor)
 
(...) Another approach that doesn't require the macaroni but should be almost as good is to simply use the 2x2 rounds as strengtheners. Since they stick together with the studs and also have an axle hole down the middle, you could use them to (...) (23 years ago, 28-Jan-02, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.technic)
 
  Re: image sizes on Brickshelf
 
(...) gah! that's a terrible thing to do, IMO. not only you force people to download the huge picture, just to see it as 100x65, but you use up their cpu to resize it, every time anyone hits the page... instead of just resizing them once yourself, (...)
