  Re: Window size in train engine
 
Ah, the cab windows seemed harder to pull off than the side windows, which is why I focused on those. For the nose though, I don't see why he wouldn't be able to use the new window on the crane car in the freight set. I didn't mean the Krokodil (...)

  Re: Window size in train engine
 
(...) Hi Sonnich, I had to deal with similar windows on my (URL) VL23>. I first considered plane windows on their side too but discounted it for the same reason so I ended up going for a three brick by four plate brick built window which I thought (...)

  Re: Track color
 
(...) If it says "Copywrite 2003" it is old gray. It has been my experience that all boxed straights, curves, and points are old grey. The new Harry Potter train set has new gray track as the track had to be made for the set. Bruce (19 years ago, 10-Feb-06, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.color)
 
  Track color
 
Can anyone tell me if there is any old gray track to be found at Shop at Home or at the Washington DC area company stores (straight, curved, points)? Is there any way to tell the track color from looking at the box? Thanks, Mike #1245 (19 years ago, 10-Feb-06, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.color)

BrickJournal 3 is available for download from (URL) and has a three page article about how BBB train wheels are made and making custom parts on Page 18-20.

  Re: close up pics of IR receiver and remote was re: new trains
 
(...) snip (...) looking at this, it looks good - comes with 4 cars :-) But, there is no glass in the green windshield in the crane car? I really hope there is. Otherwise I like it, good cars etc, even that @37000 Ft it is pretty expensive. (...) (...) (19 years ago, 9-Feb-06, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.parts, lugnet.town, FTX)
 
  Re: Window size in train engine
 
(...) I think he was talking about the windows down the side. You also can't turn crocodile ends upside down as they are full-height pieces. However, it does look like there's a green train windscreen on the crane truck you could invert. For windows (...) (19 years ago, 8-Feb-06, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.build.arch)
 
  Re: Window size in train engine
 
Could wait for the new freight engine and simply flip the train windscreen upside down. -Stefan- (19 years ago, 8-Feb-06, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.build.arch)
 
  Re: Spybotic control of train speed regulator
 
(...) I am using the Spybot remote - have not tried the RCX remote. I like the idea of using the Spybot for turnout control (and free-ing up RCX for other stuff), but the Spybot body is so large. I don't see why you couldn't devise a different (...) (19 years ago, 8-Feb-06, to lugnet.trains, FTX)
 
  Window size in train engine
 
Hi all! I am working on a new engine (TE116), and need some windows for the motor section. Plane windows are fine, but I'd like some rounded windows, which are a bit wider than high. I have been thinking about SNOT, turning them 90 degreed, but they (...) (19 years ago, 8-Feb-06, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.build.arch)
