  Re: The Future of Trains // Wishlist
 
(...) Yes you do 'abuse' the system in the sense that Holger means. LEGO trains are designed for children, not hobby use. As much as this may be frustrating and there may be good reasons for TLG to support the 'abuse' of their system they are not a (...) (17 years ago, 5-Oct-07, to lugnet.trains)

  12v layout with opperating possibilities
 
As I'm starting to be moved into my apartment, I've started to think about what to do for a train layout. I could put a 12'x12' layout in the garage. Here's a possibility: (URL) baseplates mark the boundaries of the table, including the access pit (...) (22 years ago, 27-Apr-02, to lugnet.trains)

I am upset that LEGO marketed the 9v line so poorly, but I also suspect that in the current (...) (17 years ago, 3-Oct-07, to lugnet.lego, lugnet.trains)

However, we have raised the point before that numerous intangible benefits arise from the 9V Train line. Community (...) (17 years ago, 1-Oct-07, to lugnet.lego, lugnet.trains) !

  Re: 12v Trains at BrickFest! (was Re: BrickFest tentative Train agenda)
 
(...) Tom Cook and I discussed the train rooms this past weekend. Train will get 2 rooms, since they're smaller this year. I believe the 9v layout will be in one room and the 12v right across the hall. So there would be plenty of room for a 12v (...)

  End of 9V Trains protest layout idea
 
Here's a crazy idea... How about one or more of the larger Lego train clubs that attend shows set up the following layout: a 30 x 50 foot layout (or some such large size) with no power provided at all. No batteries. No electricity. Not even solar (...) (17 years ago, 23-Oct-07, to lugnet.trains, FTX) !

  Re: S@H Summer Catalog
