 | | Question: Scale Models of Talgo
|
|
Anyone know how Marklin and other metal scale trains model the coupling system for the Talgo cars? I'd like to find a reference to how other scale trains model the mono-axle and tilting mechanism of the Talgo. Thanks. later, James Mathis (22 years ago, 22-Nov-02, to lugnet.trains)

i've been working on some new wheel ideas off and on for the past few months. seeing shaun sullivan's 4-4-4 inspired me to throw something together as a test, last night (in fact, it's fairly derivative of shaun's work). i worked from one of my (...) (22 years ago, 22-Nov-02, to lugnet.trains)

(...) Dunno but I had this idea for an arch quite a while back but never did anything with it (yet) (URL) I have actually built it and it stays together fine with other bricks behind it) ROSCO (22 years ago, 21-Nov-02, to lugnet.trains)

(...) I recently received a 3737 and the baseplate was fine. I did order it at the same time as a lot of other stuff so it was shipped as one of many things in a huge box. Maybe the warping has to do with the packing and shipping? (The big box meant (...) (22 years ago, 21-Nov-02, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.lego.direct)

(...) i ordered some of the 28-long red's at the same time i ordered 3737, those came fine. unfortunately, i'm stuck with either red bases, or making my own most of the time if i want something that large ;-) (22 years ago, 21-Nov-02, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.lego.direct)

(...) The big reason I order the packs is that I want black 28 stud baseplates. The sets with black baseplates always come with 24 stud baseplates.

(...) I ordered some of these almost a year ago, and got severely warped plates. I called up customer service who sent out replacements. The replacements were fine, and were not packaged in the service pack. I wonder if part of the problem is that (...) (22 years ago, 21-Nov-02, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.lego.direct)

(...) You may well be on to something. It may very well have something to do with the packaging? Perhaps bins and bins of bagged train plates get all akilter while sitting in storage, and get warped. No matter. I don't order these either, I find the (...) (22 years ago, 21-Nov-02, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.lego.direct)
