    Re: NALUG takes 2nd at Great Edmonton Train Show —James Brown
   (...) well, now that I'm awake, I'll give it a shot. :) The layout was 90" by 120", pretty small, really. As a result it was a bit cramped, especially for whoever was operating at the time. Next time around we should be able to get more layout space (...) (24 years ago, 25-Sep-00, to lugnet.org.ca.nalug, lugnet.trains, lugnet.trains.org)

   (...) Big Red is my fave engine from your group... nice and beefy. Just don't tell me it's 8 wide. LOL. (...) Remember how I said every club needs a Thomas? I'm thinking every club that has the space ought to have a JJMP on their layout. What a (...) (24 years ago, 25-Sep-00, to lugnet.org.ca.nalug, lugnet.trains, lugnet.trains.org)

   (...) :) Thankyou! :) (...) Um... Ok, I won't. ;) A sketch of what it would've looked like if I'd gotten around to applying (purists beware) the decals (gasp!) can be found here - (URL) not entirely complete, detail-wise, and the lettering should (...)

     I think I missed this one (Big Red) some how. What are the handrails made from? SteveB PNLTC (...) slight (...) (24 years ago, 28-Sep-00, to lugnet.org.ca.nalug, lugnet.trains, lugnet.trains.org)
    
         Re: NALUG takes 2nd at Great Edmonton Train Show —Kevin Maynes
     (...) Sadly, I've got no revolutionary new assembly technique to share here. It's just a bunch of 1x1x4 antennae for stanchions, with the long plastic piping found on podracers snipped to length for the handrail, and a wee tiny dollop of "ShooGoo" (...)

        Big Red 8 (was Re: NALUG takes 2nd at Great Edmonton Train Show) —Steve Chapple
     (...) I can just imagine your chest swelling whilst over-hearing that... :-) (...) What was the "Chelsie" modeled after? I thought it was the best one there. Sorry - Big Red 8 doesn't really count, since it's in a different class. If my layout is (...) (24 years ago, 28-Sep-00, to lugnet.org.ca.nalug, lugnet.trains, lugnet.trains.org)
    
         Re: Big Red 8 —Michel Magnan

        Re: NALUG takes 2nd at Great Edmonton Train Show —Michel Magnan
   Kevin, With the decals that model really rocks, we would have won first place if the decals had been on the model at the show! (...) I intend to rebuild the bridge, how much clearance, widthwise does big red need? The first layout I have been (...)

Did I here someone say "Technic beams"? :-] There are numerous ways to get the necessary clearance, and Technic beams would certainly do it. Also, the second bridge could (...)

        Re: NALUG takes 2nd at Great Edmonton Train Show —Steve Chapple
   (...) Well considering that train bridges are currently the prime focus of StRuCtures, it's a natural for NALug to showcase them. The simple monorail one at the show last week was a basic concept test - larger and more elaborate ones are on the way. (...)
