Me again. I was just catching up on the cool container threads that were going on awhile ago. Jason, Jake etc came up with some really great ideas. But this brings up a new issue. Most of the container ideas thrown around are 8 wide. This clashes (...) (21 years ago, 10-May-04, to lugnet.space, lugnet.trains, FTX)

(...) Ouch. Please take into account that any train-like construction over a certain (very short) length needs to be put on svivel (SP?) bases in order to be kept on track. So even if then train car stays within 6 studs, a car of 24-32 studs length (...) (21 years ago, 10-May-04, to lugnet.space, lugnet.trains)

Let's hammer this out for good this week. I'd like to put it on the Moonbase site soon. We'll work on width first. Look at this bad pic: (URL) Lenny has proposed that the train track also be moved to the seam between baseplates. I see pros and cons (...)

 | | MOC idea
|

Hi all, I've got an idea that I've been kicking around for a while, but I don't have the necessary Santa Fe Super Chief. So since I'll probably never actually make the MOC, I figured I'd just share the inspiration. This photo ran in the LA Times on (...) (21 years ago, 5-May-04, to lugnet.trains)

Has anyone modified a universal joint? Was your modified part successful? I find that the uni joints are too long for certain train applications. I propose to take a broken uni joint (the axle holding parts break at the ends), and do the following (...) (21 years ago, 4-May-04, to lugnet.technic, lugnet.trains)
