(...) Well we all copy nice ideas from each other (some even without even remembering we saw it somewhere), anyway that's the idea behind Lugnet (...) What do you mean one day?

(...) I think in order to maintain the correct distance between parallel tracks in layouts constructed with regular LEGO track pieces, anyone making these would have to use the same spacing. I think it allows these custom type pieces to be more (...) (21 years ago, 6-May-03, to lugnet.trains)

(...) Just to forestall any questions... In which Matt asked my opinion, and I gave it, as just another user, nothing more. I think what was outlined is correct but it IS a fuzzy area. I just hope if these ever go up again I hear about it, or (...) (21 years ago, 6-May-03, to lugnet.trains)
