lego trains rule

Well what would you guys recomend,older rcx or new nxt? What kind of sensor would be the best for sticking between the tracks and registering when there is a train ? You guys are great at finding pictures and info,thanks! *y*

I agree that we need to have a u.s. event but it dosent take 6 hours to get across the country unless your on a plane...if you go on amtrak it more like,ehhh whenever |-/

The person above me should realize that I all ready called dibs on city sets ;-)

The person above me should put me down on the will for any town,city,or train sets he has :-D

I really don't know,rcx just seams confusing so I thought I could aviod it...hopefully X-D Well,I was going to ask about switches too so thanks ;-)

Do you guys think I will need some sort of rcx to deploy the light and crossings? If so that could be expensive,imagine that...legos,expensive,who would of thought? :-| Thanks agian for you help guys! *y*

He could try bl but now I really want to force him to go to small toy stores to see what he can find... ;-) Yes thoose are the ones but the is some weird thing that he cant order from lego because he lives on an army base and they cant get large shipment through a.p.o. boxes or somthing like that *wacko*

I think you'd be fine doing what ever as long as it looks cityish (cool word) just look at the earlier posts as it says there would probably be little intrest in my set |-/ ,but I really have no idea so sorry if I'm wrong you can't always trust the internet... X-O

The person above me is counting down the days untill the new sets come out even though he hasen't seen pictures yet and he needs to go to bricklink to get some magnets ;-)

Well maybe I will do that then. I'm just glad you thought it was a good idea,I know I would play with it after I came home from highschool :-$

The person above me should try building a lego mag lev using only lego parts :-P

*wub* I love those railcars,great design and those loads are too funny! They should help with your over population of locomotives you have,though you can never really have too many :-D

7905 was too,you can still get it but for $20 more then original and only on or at lego *n*

The person above me watched a movie online with explosions every time zeekyboogeydoog is said,I think as I watched it months ago... :-$

|-/ anyway... has anyone here built or know how to build an automated railroad crossing?
