I'm looking for a BI or an LDraw file of a small switching yard train engine. I'm too lazy to build my own for my layout and am hoping I could build someone else's model. =) Can anyone please help me? Thanks -AHui (21 years ago, 30-Jun-03, to lugnet.trains)

(...) hi! if it does'nt need to be too realistic and you're looking for a rather compact design - have a look at the even older lego designs. i mean seventies or before. 724 and 723 are rather small. (URL) 183 is also nice. i think 722 is the (...) (21 years ago, 2-Jul-03, to lugnet.trains, FTX)
