    That is indeed different from the traditional horizontal one's :) sorry my mistake...

    Well, there are people that created one... The German term is: "schiebebühne": (Dutch:) http://legotreinforu...brug-t1527.html http://www.brickshel...lidingPlatform/ So I think that answered your question. The English term is "Transfer table": http://en.wikipedia..../Transfer_table Apart from that, we welcome you to the Train forum, but be careful that you don't act like a 'gatling gun' and open new topics without searching etc (http://www.eurobricks.com/forum/index.php?app=core&module=search&do=search&fromMainBar=1). MAke sure you also introduce yourself in the Train Tech forum and at EB general of course :)

    Very nice work Lazarus!!!

    I have done experiments and did not like the way that it affected the performance of my 9V motors. Apart from that, DCC is a nice but expensive way to run trains. Together with my high school students we are developing a universal system that uses Arduino / PF / Xbee / BLE to run trains and peripherals.

    aha, that makes sense :) it comes out very well in this MOC indeed!

    @UrbanErwin, ah, you are right: he meant that indeed. But some different interpunction and a few more words would have helped of course :)

    @mikezang, welcome to Train Tech and EB. Maybe you could introduce yourself first. It would be a good idea to start a new topic on remote controlling trains using EV3 and older mindstorms versions, but I think it would be better to create a new topic for that. @rrigs: simple solutions are often the best :)

    Nice work on that train! It is indeed very difficult to make that curves with normal bricks, but you did a great job on that!!!

    @TexMexSu: welcome here, why don't you introduce yourself first in some other topic in Train Tech or in the general forum (http://www.eurobricks.com/forum/index.php?showforum=17). B.t.w. we would also appreciate it if you try to be a little less vague in expressing yourself: "New 'kids' on the block, well train station anyway." is not really English isn't it?! ;) Hope to see much more of you here of course!

    I like it very much, will you be able to fit a driver in it (BEAVeR had the same question ;))? b.t.w. what is that front winch part? I have never seen it before.
  11. JopieK
    very nice indeed!
  12. JopieK
    hehe :) very nice!!! That will stick out on the airport.
  13. JopieK
    Very nice job!
  14. JopieK
    Looks very nice! Only the numbers could be improved of course...
  15. JopieK
    About the numbers: LEGO does indeed use Helvetica (I think Helvetica Neue if I remember correctly) quite often.

    I really like the Bochum Dahlhausen museum in Germany. In Holland Beekbergen is very nice too, but that is not a real museum (but STAR and Museum Buurtspoor aren't really musea either, they are depots that provide one with some exhibition trains and a rail trip opportunity (very nice though). One of my other favorites is the Deutsches Technik Museum in Berlin with a lot of nice steam engines etc.

    So you will still be able to buy food, good to hear that :). Solutions like lugbulk get us a lot of certain parts, but still, to create the whole layout it costs a very lot of bricks (both in money and ABS ;))
  18. JopieK
    very very nice, but... before LEGOWorld your bank account will be empty ;) I'm also hoping to do some ballasting for LEGOWorld, mainly to hide cables etc.
  19. JopieK
    Very nice job indeed!!!
  20. JopieK
    how is it going with the MOC? Did you know that a Santa Fe Super Chief had a similar accident?
  21. JopieK
    interesting that they open one in Belgium but no one in Holland, Flanders should consider to reconnect with Holland again I think ;) We normally go to Essen or Oberhausen.
  22. JopieK
    Well, I don't know that of course, but most people have windows systems... and... no reason on a Mac to not update your Chrome I think... Good to hear that you fixed it!!!
  23. JopieK
    hope to post an update tomorrow, apart from the driving rods (zephyr) and lighting, I have just finished the build.
  24. JopieK
    I use "Version 29.0.1547.65" of Chrome... works without a problem, so maybe upgrade to a Mac ;) (just somewhat drastic, but hey, what is a more important thing to do on a computer than visiting EB.com ;))
  25. JopieK
    You should present in on LEGOWorld Utrecht 2013 in Holland (doubt that they will pay your ticket, but they should with such a nice Dutch work!).
