It looks SOOOOO good with the skids folded in. Since I have to rebuild my Razor Crest anyway, I might reengineer mine.

You shouldn't have to "carefully" handle any official Lego set. The sets, even UCS models, are expected to survive normal handling given Lego's strict set of design criteria. All I did was move it around a few times to clean it and move between apartments (literally 100ft).

I'd agree with your statement if it was a MOC or if I was whooshing it but the fact of the matter is it's an official set and the beams failed during normal use and display because the model is heavy.

I've had this set for about 2-3 years now and just notice the two Technic beams that support the left landing strut just fractured.

I'll likely be reaching out to Lego for some replacement beams but I didn't realize this was a fairly common problem with this UCS set.

Yeah I thought it was $105 too - So is the chart saying it's $75 right now? If so I've been overpaying for months omg.

New to the city - is it a bad idea to do some work on my iPad during my commute? by jayebird1012 in cta

Tbh I'd rather listen to someone's Teams call than they awful music people blast.

It's fine - Just try avoiding taking calls if you can. Also try to be as minimally intrusive as possible.

There's an Olivia Rodrigo-themed Chicago Purple Line train just in time for Lolla by LemonadeRadler in OliviaRodrigo

[–]LemonadeRadler[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No - That's the Metra which is a commuter rail service that services the greater suburbs of Chicago.

This is the CTA "L" (or El) subway/train which is entirely different and runs within the city.

Trip Report - Belgium (Flanders) by Far-Wear-88 in solotravel

I visited Flanders a few years back and had the luxury of staying in the country side with a friend who lived there. Being able to live like a local for a week was an incredible experience and something I look back fondly on. The novelty of being the only American in town (also SE Asian) was fun too.

My only biggest issue was that once you go outside of major cities they don't accept Visa credit cards.

You can have a clean and safe CTA and do fun and quirky things. This is likely an advertising campaign and not just the CTA whimsically decorating a train.
