Hi! As agreed with Knud R. H.Thomsen I post a link to his new page with Tips&tricks. (URL) find the point very creative BR Sonnich (21 years ago, 16-Sep-03, to lugnet.trains)

| | motor in set 727
|
|
What motor was included in set 727 (12V Locomotive) ? Was it the 702 or 107 (but 12V) ? Peeron doesn't show pictures so I cant determine which one it is. Last saturday I got a second hand 727 with a 702 type motor. Niels (21 years ago, 16-Sep-03, to lugnet.trains)

(...) This is going to be impossible to nail down until an actual layout is done at NWBrickCon (hope I spelled that right). Some modules don't have connectors on all sides. I think that someone should take track at NWBC and use it to eyeball trouble (...) (21 years ago, 16-Sep-03, to lugnet.space, lugnet.trains)

(...) That's great and all but most people don't commute to work in mining carts : P We can live with the height, I guess, but what about the width ? An eight stud wide road isn't even wide enough to get realistic cargo containers through : ( 10 (...) (21 years ago, 16-Sep-03, to lugnet.space, lugnet.trains)

(...) Agreed...I have a couple sets of train wheels...(but no motors or modern track) maybe I'll make a sample train car. --Bram (21 years ago, 16-Sep-03, to lugnet.space, lugnet.trains)

Yeah. I'll retract those two rules. They are too limiting. I tried to build a sample train/corridor model and it just doesn't fit : ( I think if we're going to do trains we need to revisit the corridor height/setback again. Even the new 10 brick (...)

(...) 1) This requires the coordination and cooperation of the neighboring module. A road requires little infrastructure when compared to rail. (at least when you are looking at moonbase construction) 2) I'm assuming that there is less clearance (...) (21 years ago, 16-Sep-03, to lugnet.space, lugnet.trains)

(...) The NILTC has noted that 6-wide trains are technically 8 with grab bars and protrusions, and 8-wides are technically 10. We adjust our layout clearances accordingly. I think the soft-seal airlocks should be on rack gears, and be able to move (...) (21 years ago, 16-Sep-03, to lugnet.space, lugnet.trains)

(...) This is kind of limiting, especially when designing trains that are supposed to look squat and futuristic. I think train tracks will be fine...people will just need to work out a layout for the Moonbase and all the monorail/trains (...) (21 years ago, 16-Sep-03, to lugnet.space, lugnet.trains)
