(...) Hi James, I guess I'm a little late responding since you've already posted a newer MOC (your HST) but I didn't want to miss a chance to say I think both of these locos are great. I think you have tons of great details in both. A subtle point (...) (22 years ago, 9-Jan-03, to lugnet.trains)

Hi, I am currently investing time into the possibility of automating my 12V lego train via the I2C bus. My goal is to use a less as possible (relative expensive) relays, which means that I want to put current into the 12V devices myself. I searched (...) (22 years ago, 9-Jan-03, to lugnet.trains)
