   But I guess the core question here is this - Besides the obvious (buffer plates, train wheels, bogies plates, etc.), what parts can you not live without in order to be able to create great train models?

Thanks in advance for the input!

Jake

Well, I’ve been slowly going through my collection, and removing the buffer plates on my US type cars, and replacing them with 3x2 plates with offset hole.
And I really like this bracket

But I know I use a fair amount of headlight bricks and jumper plates as well. And a pair or 2 of taps.

Now if the train kit came in several color versions, like the my train engines. Including window frames (1x2x3, 1x4x3 and 1x2x2 in home and boat style) and doors (2 left and 2 right). And some panels texture bricks as well. And this

And of course the 1x3 curved slope brick and a needed 4x3 version.
In black and greys.

I’ve also been lenthening many of my cars, and am finding a have a large surplus of 6x24 train baseplates, so please no more of this size.

(...) Good question. Actually, we're still working out many of the details, specifically the great questions you ask above. More info as we can release (and when we actually have decisions to release!). In general, I'd love to open this conversation (...) (19 years ago, 16-Sep-05, to lugnet.trains, FTX)
