(...) Andreas, I'm not big into trains (aside from the traditional Christmas time around the tree one) but I really like the steamlining on this, I'd even call it art deco like. Thanks, George (18 years ago, 10-Jul-06, to lugnet.trains, FTX)

Has anyone ever got the LEGO Loco game to work with networking? My son loves the game, and was so excited to try using it across 2 computers, but although I have tried to do it myself, searched the internet for info on it, searched Lugnet, I can't (...)

Hi Tim, (...) Yes, must be something like that. It is only silently humming and recently it made a new record of fuel-cell powered engines with amazing 86.7 mph. (...) Thanks, but this is the well known "The grass is greener on the..."-effect ;-) I (...) (18 years ago, 7-Jul-06, to lugnet.trains, FTX)

(...) That's great! I'm not a trains builder, so I can't pass an official judgement on it, but I can say that I think that it's amazing! I love how the roof scoops in on the back. Good job all around! Jeffery MacEachern (4 URLs) (18 years ago, 7-Jul-06, to lugnet.trains, FTX)

(...) Hi Andreas, This is beautiful. It is so retro-futuristic. I'm imagining that it is a fuel-cell powered passenger engine from the near future. I love your earlier train and this one is ever better. You're really tempting me back to the world of (...) (18 years ago, 7-Jul-06, to lugnet.trains, FTX)

Hello, I would like to show my second engine, which I have designed. It was aimed to look a little bit oldfashioned. (URL) It does not follow any real model, since (to be honest) I do not have any idea about trains, except the fact, that they are (...)
