| | | | (...) I have not heard any rumors on 2012 products. But LEGO has supplied us with a huge amount of trains recently (and two of them aiming definitely at AFOLs!). So I have to agree with Tim, that we can not expect too much in 2012. Including the (...) (13 years ago, 9-Nov-11, to lugnet.trains)

I didn't really understand the details but I thought the existing protocol allowed for a full 16 channels of which only eight were used presently. And I (...)

However I have found no satisfying way to integrate Houses on baseplates in odd angles. This ended in very (...) (13 years ago, 10-Nov-11, to lugnet.trains)

As a man whose 8 year old trains still set the standards I think you can manage it ;) (...) Excellent. (...) I think that would (...) (13 years ago, 10-Nov-11, to lugnet.trains)

I heard the compliments out of your words (mixed up with a little irony, which has been deserved after my statement on having problems with leaving baseplated away). I had not the intention to sound harsh either. Humor, (...) (13 years ago, 11-Nov-11, to lugnet.trains)
