    source of <-O-> background —Michel Magnan
   Hello everyone, We are working on a new webpage. One of the Lego train sites had a background made of repeated faint <-O-> as seen on some of the Lego trains. I would like to borrow the pattern (if alright with the original designer), but Ican't (...) (21 years ago, 4-Sep-03, to lugnet.trains)

   (...) I can make you one if you want. My scanner's broken, though, so I'll need someone to give me a scan of that logo up close. It's easier to trace the logo from a scan than to draw it freehand. (21 years ago, 4-Sep-03, to lugnet.trains)

   (...) The only parts I could find it in Ldraw have the logo at an angle, not sure how useful they would be.

   Michel, I just sent you an email with a link to the finished logos. If anyone else wants a 2.67 MB zip file of the train logo in various sizes and colors, let me know and I'll put the link in here. (21 years ago, 17-Oct-03, to lugnet.trains)
