I need some help with locating non-North-American Railway Decals (in O Gauge/7mm gauge - the nearest approx to L-Gauge). Where can I get them? Do they sell directly or thru model-shop dealers? Anyone know a good website which collects non-NA railway (...) (21 years ago, 26-Jun-03, to lugnet.trains)

I'm going to add here, that I got mine about a week ago, and as a set it is great. Except for one minor thing. It isn't tall enough for the croc to fit into. Which puts my intended use of it in question- I was going to use it as my lower level (...) (21 years ago, 25-Jun-03, to lugnet.trains)

Hi Steve, Ben postet the link to your gallery at our 1000steine.de newsboard. I just want to add my comments about this great MOC scene. It's brilliant and I love the use of the new dark red pieces.

Hello, I'd like to invite all Trains fans to see my new, Train-related MOC. It's a 6-studs wide model of German diesel shunter, Koef 3 (modern number BR 333). You can find pictures and LDraw model in my Brickshelf gallery. Click the thumbnail below (...) (21 years ago, 24-Jun-03, to lugnet.trains, FTX)
