|
| | | Just some info for anyone that is trying to make a garden railroad. The distance from the inside of the rails is 73 mm. So if you want to make your garden railroad as close to the LEGOLAND trains then that would be the distance you would space the (...) (25 years ago, 18-Aug-99, to lugnet.trains)

| | | | LOL As if anyone would want to copy that crap that TLG uses at their parks! (At least in CA) Those *aren't* LEGO trains, but rather hybrids that would be scorned in a *pure* group like this. Just because an employee of TLG built it, it doesn't mean (...) (25 years ago, 18-Aug-99, to lugnet.trains)

| | | | Well John I would want to copy the master peices they have made. I like the creativity that went into making realalistic designs of trains. I am sure someone at LEGO had to design the electronics, and mechanics that went into those trains. I am sure (...) (25 years ago, 19-Aug-99, to lugnet.trains)

| | | | | How many angels can dance on the head of a pin? I'd say something is pure LEGO(r) if Joe average consumer can go buy it at a store or direct from TLG and it comes in a LEGO box. Stuff that someone made in a back room explicitly for Miniland that is (...) (25 years ago, 20-Aug-99, to lugnet.trains)

At least Miniland is constructed *entirely* out of (...) (25 years ago, 20-Aug-99, to lugnet.trains)

| | | | | | I agree with the sticker issue, however there is a fine line! I think stickers are OK if they only represent a logo, numbering or words. I don't think using stickers to mask colors and create stripes... is legit. In many of the model railroad decal (...) (25 years ago, 20-Aug-99, to lugnet.trains)
