		Re: NY Subway train
Hi Tim, Nice. I really like the rubber band chain as well. I was actually planning to build an LDRAW model of an NYC subway car this week, but at a vaguely Miniland scale (I've never been to a Legoland park, so I'm not entirely sure). I like the (...)

		Re: Thoughts on Battery-powered IR-controlled trains
(...) Well, until I buy one and dig into it, I am not going to know how much space there is within the housing. I like RF 'cos it works out of line of sight. As far as different sub-carrier frequencies for IR, there are a number between 25KHz and (...) (19 years ago, 13-Jan-06, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.dear-lego)

		Re: Thoughts on Battery-powered IR-controlled trains
(...) I'm saving up to buy an NXT - at Developer's Special, or full retail, I'll likely get one the first chance I get. But I'm not remotely thinking the RCX will be "obsolete" in 6 months. One, the NXT doesn't have IR... yet. It wouldn't surprise (...) (19 years ago, 12-Jan-06, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.dear-lego)

Hi Ondrew, I can make a comment on two related posts here. (...) As I see it 4) and 7) are related since for me they both solve the same problem which is this: seven-wide trains are pretty much ruined by the 6x30 baseplate. Basically it's very (...)

		Hobby Train
There seems to be a lot of discussion about the new battery powered trains. I notice that there seems to be a general consensus that the trains are targeted towards younger kids. What ever happened to the promised "hobby trains"? I believe this was (...) (19 years ago, 8-Jan-06, to lugnet.trains)
