Some 'smaller' spoked wheels were with set 7750 12V black steam loco with tender. They also came on their own. As with the 12V set you could use them with a motor in the tender. David (...) (22 years ago, 27-Apr-02, to lugnet.trains)

A few questions... The big red spoked wheels you sometimes see in trainmodels, are they from set 396 (URL) ? Is it possible to use these wheels on 9V ? Which other sets contain those wheels? Thanks, Saskia (22 years ago, 27-Apr-02, to lugnet.trains)

(...) ... I'd love to be able to reach four feet. That means that from one outstretched fingertip to the other, I'd have a span of nearly 10'! That would be great at basketball, as well as playing the piano (or two). Seriously, my tables are 4' deep (...) (22 years ago, 27-Apr-02, to lugnet.trains)

I find 8' is the maximum width of a layout, as you can only reach in by 4', but then there is mainly town in the centre of the layout. Also I like to have several trains running at once, it's nice to sit back and watch them. You can only have two or (...) (22 years ago, 27-Apr-02, to lugnet.trains)

As I'm starting to be moved into my apartment, I've started to think about what to do for a train layout. I could put a 12'x12' layout in the garage. Here's a possibility: (URL) baseplates mark the boundaries of the table, including the access pit (...) (22 years ago, 27-Apr-02, to lugnet.trains)

I put two of the yellow noses to good use. My "Lightning Bug" is super-fast, and a popular favorite at PNLTC shows. I even managed to get it lit in both the front and back, and since it travels at full speed, the lights are always nice and bright. (...) (22 years ago, 27-Apr-02, to lugnet.trains)
