(...) Hi, thanks for your help! I was also starting to think that no one has built this color scheme yet. I'm actually attempting it by flipping between a picture of an HO electric train version of it and the building instructions in the book. If I (...) (15 years ago, 14-Jun-09, to lugnet.trains)

(...) IMO there's poor chance someone built the blue version (well maybe Jake is reading these lines and got some pictures he may link to) - as far as I can remember, noone ever posted such a picture on BS. However, I'm having a look at the small (...) (15 years ago, 14-Jun-09, to lugnet.trains)

Does anyone have some pictures of a LEGO SF GP-38 Loco “Warbonnet” design as discussed in the "Getting Started With LEGO Trains" book by Jacob McKee? Building instructions for this color scheme would be even more desirable. I need to build a loco to (...) (15 years ago, 13-Jun-09, to lugnet.trains)

Hello I was hoping on the wheel, but some tests tonight did not gave all what I wanted. 1) external design I tried to use a 1x8 technic brick, a 1x6 will do and a 1x7 will be good. It is possible to place the wheels one hole from the end, leaving (...) (15 years ago, 13-Jun-09, to lugnet.trains)

(...) The "new 8866 motor" is just the same motor as found in 9v RC trains that have been out for a year or so. It SHOULD be capable of being powered as you suggest, 9v jumper wire to a 9v track powered motor (but I haven't tried so no promises). I (...) (15 years ago, 13-Jun-09, to lugnet.trains, FTX)
