(...) My thinking on the techinic peg/axle (part #3747) is that the drive rod will remain rigid, and, since one side of the peg/axle connecter can move in and out freely, the space between the drive rod and the wheel will change. Unfortunately, I (...) (21 years ago, 23-Mar-04, to lugnet.trains)

I just finished uploading pictures of my new steam engine to my web site. I decided to put up pictures even though the engine is still missing one black macaroni brick (Since a lot of my LEGO is still in boxes from the last move, it will be a while (...)

(...) Done, well sort of. I have already completed a mallard, although it was built before bbb wheels.

(...) I bought two sets of drive wheels from Ben. Four red ones for my American 4-4-0, which I just finished (less one black macaroni... grrr), and 6 black wheels for eventually making a 4-6-2. I haven't even started planning my 4-6-2, but I have (...) (21 years ago, 23-Mar-04, to lugnet.trains)
