		Re: Pictures from 12/01-12/02 Wilmington MA, Greenberg Show
(...) Ed, There is a lot of automation! I believe there were 5 RCX's on the layout, 4 of them controlled 4 crossing gates using some of Chris Phillips home brew "Reed Switches" (basically Reed Switches are used to detect the Magnetic couplers on the (...)

		Re: Remote switching points
It really is a shame that Lego no longer makes all the nifty automated light, switch and crossing components. I first saw these in the 1980 European catalog ((URL) , which I still have :). My mom brought it over from a trip to Germany. I was stunned (...) (25 years ago, 27-Aug-99, to lugnet.trains)

		Re: What is the maximum length of a single carriage.
(...) I have used 4 axles in one truck. The trick is to make the two center axles 'sideways slideable'. This is pretty easy to accomplish: the two outer axles have a tile-with-centerstud, the two middle axles have tiles in them. Now connect the two (...) (23 years ago, 1-Jun-01, to lugnet.trains)

		Re: 10183 Hobby Train Review
(...) I'm not sure what you're saying. That because Lego doesn't have a DCC system, arbitrary curve geometry, etc, that Lego doesn't have a hobbyist market? Here's the skinny: You've got people who don't care if we switch to a battery system, and (...) (18 years ago, 12-Mar-07, to lugnet.trains, FTX)

		Re: Pulling power of different train systems
(...) Ben, with your rig, how does the 8866 PF Train motor compare with the 10153 motor, for various masses of loco (say no-load, kids' train load and AFOL train load)? I've tested the Emerald Night carriage with an 8866 motor and found that the (...) (15 years ago, 27-Nov-09, to lugnet.trains, FTX)

		Re: voltage question??
(...) Hi Dave, a blue motor housing with black base, that means a very old motor like from sets 100, 102, 112, 113 from 1966 - 1968. So it's definitely a 4.5 Volt motor. If you are interested in an inside view look here: (URL) more schematic: (URL) (...) (24 years ago, 17-Apr-00, to lugnet.trains)

		Re: What kind of motor comes with the 4559?
I have experienced this interesting phenomenon - luckily it occurs in a 1.5m long tunnel about 7 track meters from the controller feed point so the slower speed prevents of derailing in 'the dark hole' (sometimes!). I recently tried several motors (...) (25 years ago, 15-Jan-00, to lugnet.trains)

		Re: Home layouts

It -only- has 500 pieces of straight track in it. :) And my wife wants to kill me :) No, seriously, I have a room with a lego setup in it. Including town, and shelfs across the (...)

		New MOC: Cowans Sheldon 76T Rail Crane with Power Functions - photos
Here are the photos of my new Rail Crane with Power Functions: (URL) It's an 8mm scale model of a Cowans Sheldon 76T crane. Some details still to finish - I want to make sure it passes the scale load lifting test first. The scale load will be 6 full (...)

		SpeedRail TGV Thalys
Hi all, Ran across some photos of this train ((URL) 1>, (URL) 2>, (URL) 3>, (URL) 4>) the other day and thought it rather neat: a Thalys TGV in different colours. The real thing was to run between Sydney and Canberra but cost too much so never (...) (19 years ago, 22-Jan-06, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.announce.moc, FTX) !

		An updated reciprocal point motor design with semaphore

Reciprocal motion - current from a power source can be applied in a single direction to throw the switch in (...) (23 years ago, 28-Mar-02, to lugnet.trains)

		One good message (kind of) from LEGO at last...
Hi Train Fans! Some may have heard about the AFOL group which co-worked with LEGO on Mindstorms-NXT (at least as a kind of feedback group). Then there is the group of Ambassadors and who will wonder: there is a group of train fans organised to give (...) (19 years ago, 1-Apr-06, to lugnet.trains)

		Re: Super Chief set not ready for prime-time // Super Chief no train set?

		Re: Hobby Train - the no future train?
