Duplo intelli-train question

Post by Guest »

I have question about the Duplo Intelli-Train. Have you seen any universal reference to an overall list of code bricks and what they do with the Duplo Explore Intelligent Train? There were four bricks that came with my set:

Duplo Train Track Code Brick
42389px1 TrGreen Fueling with Octan Logo - Stops, refilling sounds
42388px1 TrPink Horn with Horns (Pic) - Toots horn
42387px1 TrLtBlue Return with Looping Arrows (Pic) - Reverses train direction
42386px1 TrRed Stop with Stop Signs (Pic) - Stops train


But there are others:
x905px3 TrYellow Engine / Stamp? - ??
x905px7 TrBlue Tunnel - Tunnel sounds?
x905px2 TrOrange Cargo / Loading - Stops, loading sounds?
x905px1 Red Arrow (yellow, solid old style) - Reverses train direction?
... more?

There are also functions that only work on certain bricks. For example; the gas refill hose only works if the train has stopped on an Octan Fueling brick. Some bricks like the Horn, behave differently with different engineers.

This is the best list I can build so far, can you add to any of this? Or even better, do you know where I might buy some of the code bricks that I'm missing.

I'm also considering making some of these bricks by cutting down the Stop brick's bars. However, I need to know the length of the bars on the missing bricks. If you have one of the missing bricks, I'd appreciate it if you'd scan it and send me a high resolution picture.


Thank you.

I realize my question is a bit useless without a means of responding. I've just created an account, so I can now post properly.

Are there any duplo addicts in the club? Intelli-train owners?


Thanks again.

Hi Jeremy,
I have a pretty good duplo collection but none of those. Maybe one of the train people will see this message and have some advice. Search lugnet or google it of course as well.

Good Luck

Hi Jeremy,I like the lego trains but have not purchased any duplo related train items.I am intrested in how they work though,and wondered why lego had not included some of the sound and control interface with the more adult train line.Sorry I dont know much about those intelli bricks,like Dean L said go to lugnet or google some answers -take care -Andrew
