(...) Very clever, Shaun-- I can hardly wait for the rest of the engine! But 10 wide??? It's bad enough to have scale drivers for 6 wide let alone 8! We really need some drivers that are the size of the 5571 hubs IMO. I look forward to your (...) (22 years ago, 20-Jul-02, to lugnet.trains)

(...) I need to invest in some reed sensors to detect the magnets as they go by, the light sensors are just too unreliable under the different lighting conditions. Anyone know a good place to purchase some RCX-compatible reed sensors? "Clever"... (...) (22 years ago, 19-Jul-02, to lugnet.trains)

(...) Hey Steve, Great pictures of your clubhouse! I was wondering if you could give us a little insight on how the PNLTC was able to secure the space. I know that mall space can be quite expensive (especially in Southern Cal) so I was hoping to (...) (22 years ago, 19-Jul-02, to lugnet.trains)

(...) Another great looking train James. I would love to see how the coaches are constructed. Like how the sides are connected to windows. Also I wasnt able to find any pictures of the real train on the site you provided. Keep up the great work (...) (22 years ago, 19-Jul-02, to lugnet.trains)

My wife just got back from a 2 month driving-journey from New Mexico to Alaska and back. She was kind to acknowledge my passion for modeling trains as she took a few photos of some trains she saw in Alaska. One of which was the White Pass and Yukon (...) (22 years ago, 19-Jul-02, to lugnet.trains)

James- Mr. Gerlach is quite clever. He has the loop powered in three sections with light sensors to grab the trolley location for the RCX. It was working alright at the Roundhouse, but it had some trouble in the direct light of the Fargo show. The (...) (22 years ago, 19-Jul-02, to lugnet.trains)

In fact we've met there twice as a club since the "Open House" weekend to do some maintenance (and hang out) and had to open to doors for 30 to 60 minutes due to the number people peering in. Since the layout is always setup (as opposed to a GATS (...) (22 years ago, 19-Jul-02, to lugnet.trains)

Our first public weekend at the Beaverton Mall in Beaverton (outside Portland, OR) was a great success! July 6th and 7th we were open to the public during mall hours at our new temporary "clubhouse".

John, How is this trolly running? (URL) it being powered by the track? If so how is it wired to not short out and to go in the reverse direction when it comes around the loop? Or is it RCX controled? Very nice look no matter how you did it. jt (...) (22 years ago, 18-Jul-02, to lugnet.trains)
