Perhaps, to cut the cost of the set, the number of straights would be 2, if that is the minimum necessary for use (...) (20 years ago, 4-Sep-04, to lugnet.trains, FTX)

| | Ability of newer 9V motors
|
| Since I'm new to Lego trains (bought my first Lego train set last week #4511 + an extra #10158 car), I'm wondering exactly how powerful the little motor that comes with the set is. It seems to have no problem moving the 3 cars that I currently own (...) (19 years ago, 25-Aug-05, to lugnet.trains)

If you remove them from the metal axel, they have an almost stud on the back. The (...) (19 years ago, 1-Sep-05, to lugnet.trains, FTX)

| | Exploring a new track radius
|
| Quite a few of us in the community have wanted a new track radius for a very very long time. When we were in the 9v era the argument against it given was the metal rails would be too expensive. Now that we are in the RC era and the track is plastic (...) (11 years ago, 19-Jan-14, to lugnet.trains)
