(...) All of our curves will come in 22.5 degree sweeps. In short, if you lay them out 8 studs apart, you will be able to draw a radii line from the center of the curve that will intersect all of the junctions. (...) I will put them up on the ME (...) (13 years ago, 15-Apr-11, to lugnet.trains)

(...) Bluebrick supports full, half and quarter pieces of both the curved and straight track elements. If I use these elements in the design of my layout, and purchase the ME components, will they marry up? For instance a quarter track piece from ME (...) (13 years ago, 8-Apr-11, to lugnet.trains)

(...) Q: Are the rails available separately? That is, w/o the sleeper pieces. I have considered getting LEGO trains for the past 2 decades, but never bought a single train set. Therefore, I have no track in my collection. Except for a bunch of 4.5v (...) (14 years ago, 5-Apr-11, to lugnet.trains)

(...) The ends, right now, are in dark bley and reddish brown. If there's enough interest, we can do them in other colors as well and maybe offer them as an "add-on". Quite frankly though, unless you're connecting to existing LEGO track, you don't (...) (14 years ago, 4-Apr-11, to lugnet.trains)
