 | | 9V trains alternate between freight & passenger sets?
|
| Hi, Is this a possible pattern I've noticed about the 9V train sets? Based on information in Lugnet's set database: 4563 Load N' Haul Railway 1992 4558 Metroliner 1992 4564 Freight Rail Runner 1995 4559 Cargo Railway 1996 4565 Freight & Crane (...) (24 years ago, 10-Aug-00, to lugnet.trains)

| | Re: 9v train motor compared to IR train motor

| | 9v train motor compared to IR train motor
|
| Since I have only one IR-Controlled battery-powered (IR) motor, I devised a totally unreasonable test, and then subjected an IR motor and a 9v motor to the test. On a small 10 x 6 oval I set up an 8-stud wide train. I set up my big engine (8 x 59 (...) (17 years ago, 6-Oct-07, to lugnet.trains)

| | A power rail idea
|
| OK, so 9V is dead. Not a happy thought. Still, the engineer in me can't help but think about ways to work within the new regime.

| (...) Not a bad idea. However, I used to have a decent layout in the 70's (my Dark Ages) using the 12V system, which is not too far from what you are proposing. It would require Lego to come up with new parts, including a complicated switch. Also, I (...) (17 years ago, 17-Oct-07, to lugnet.trains)
