(...) Wow, that does look very expensive. That is a quite huge amount of chrome parts you used.... Very clever use of the 4wide chrome parts from Star Wars and these enlarged by the tubes to 6 wide (at the end of the observation car). Your pictures (...) (21 years ago, 30-May-03, to lugnet.trains)

Perhaps you'd like to check out the following ... a Santa Fe FA and FB (with working fans (from track power) and lights(from battery box)) with a consist of 3 streamliner coaches. The tail car is an observation coach with an exterior viewing (...) (21 years ago, 30-May-03, to lugnet.trains)

(...) I don't know about you, but I tend towards .5W or bigger for most of my resistors, and diodes have exactly the same problem if you use them as a voltage drop. Load is not really signifigant on a 5A booster (soon to be 10 amps total...2 (...) (21 years ago, 30-May-03, to lugnet.trains, FTX)

(...) I forget if I already replied with how nifty this is. I spotlighted it, I put in a news article at ILTCO (we're having some domain problems right now, a temporary url is iltco.northcomp.com) and I added it to the .trains header That ought to (...)

Awesome cars! The shovel roof really looks nice, and the cars themselves are incredible. The ends have gotta be my favorite part, with the drop down deck and the entire thing being SNOT. Very spiffy. -Stefan- (21 years ago, 30-May-03, to lugnet.trains)

(...) Joining in here, I don't get why it's so hard for Lego to make a new monorail. Can't they just put together a new spur gear system (And give the cars real couplers while they're at it)? Doesn't seem like it'd be that hard. -Stefan- (21 years ago, 30-May-03, to lugnet.trains, FTX)

(...) Sorry, my earlier post should have been more clear. I was just commenting on the fact that in general a resistor is _not_ a good way to reduce voltage to a train motor. And you recalled correctly: diode's are "one-way". Thats why you need to (...) (21 years ago, 29-May-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx, lugnet.trains)
