| (...) Ken, nice work. Let us know how well this operates. I did some experimenting along these lines last summer, but I didn't think of cutting and bending tabs on the ATLAS track connectors, very cleaver. I was going to grind flange off the base of (...)

The Peak is a good example: (URL) Each bogie has 4 wheelsets, the middle 2 being the motor, the inner ones a 9V wheelset and the (...) (19 years ago, 19-Apr-05, to lugnet.trains, FTX)

| Zhengrong- It will not be possible to use the 4.5 volt or 12 volt track with the 9 volt system. In the 4.5 volt track, the rails are plastic and the train run on batteries. In the 12 volt system, there is a metal strip which attaches down the middle (...) (24 years ago, 31-Oct-00, to lugnet.trains)

| | Re: Creative ways to run trains in small places
|
| (...) A variation of this (that I had in my bedroom as a kid) is to have the layout hinged on one edge and fixed to a (strong) shelf. When not used it folds up against the wall. Mine was hollow, with an operating well/hole in the middle. (URL) (...) (17 years ago, 20-Jul-07, to lugnet.trains, FTX)

| | Re: How do LEGO trains work?
|
| (...) The trains are motorized, and some are lit (the engine in 4565 has a light for one end - I've wired mine for lighting at both ends). You may want to ask around for a regulator (MA13 has two with no bids right now for $9.99 for example). 4565 (...) (24 years ago, 21-Oct-00, to lugnet.trains)

| | Creative ways to run trains in small places

| I would like to have a train layout, with permanent structures, supplemental vehicles, and so forth, but I really do not have the room for it. Has anyone come up with a creative way to build, run, and store a lego train layout in a small space? For (...) (17 years ago, 18-Jul-07, to lugnet.trains)

| | Re: Creative ways to run trains in small places

| A long time ago I made a 4 wide big rig and thought that it might be fun to take standard HO track and build LEGO cases for a standard loco chassis. The I got to thinking about how to attach HO trucks to LEGO and dropped the idea because it was (...) (17 years ago, 18-Jul-07, to lugnet.trains)

Screw the track down to some chipboard and hinge it to fold up out of the way. To keep the depth (...) (17 years ago, 21-Jul-07, to lugnet.trains)

My next Big Thing® is going to be creating 12 wide LEGO trains that utilize G scale track, trucks, couplers, and motors. I will run them outdoors (but won't leave (...)
