 | | Re: LEGO 9V Train Communication II

| (...) If someone can get hold of Mark Riley and have him 'fix up' LDCC to be 'Power Functions/RC Train' IR compatible instead of DCC, that'd be a quick fix :) The rest is already built in--remote control, LACC, etc... Dave K (17 years ago, 19-Dec-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)

| If they are still using IR (i.e. line of sight) for communications, forget it. If they go to some kind of non line of sight control (e.g. whatever the Fischer-Price GeoTrax system is using), I will consider it. (17 years ago, 8-Dec-07, to lugnet.trains)
