| Well, I finally have all the pictures and movies posted to Brickshelf from
our Train and Town Layout this past weekend in Montreal. I had a problem
trying to get them all into a single directory, so I had to break them up
into a few directories.
After moderation, everything can be found at;
http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/tstrutt/Train-Shows/Apr-03/
Until then, here are a few teasers:

I know other members have posted, or will post more pictures also.
Pierre Normandin has posted many pictures to his Brickshelf account already:

We had a few AFOL's spend a lot of time visitting the display, and even had
a visit from NovaLUG's Jean-Marc Detraz which was great.
You will find I have many pictures of my build of James Mathis' APT. Many
thanks for graciously posting the instructions on your Brickshelf account.

I just love that train, even though Jude hates the yellow. ;-)
Hope you enjoy the pictures half as much as we enjoyed the show.
Play well.

I received a question about it, so I figured I'd add the info here.
There were 5 MonLUG and 3 ParLUGment members who contributed
and stayed at the show full time, and one other MonLUG member
contributed his previously-non-LEGO signinficant other's MOC,
a museum, which was very impressive.
Other stats:
- it took more than 8 hours to set up
- it took about 2 hours to tear down and pack
- we had 4 independent loops running, but opened up the outside two
as one full loop some of the time
- there were fewer visitors than usual due to an unfortunate snow and
sleet storm on Saturday, and there was still lots of snow Sunday
Play well.

Hmmmm? For some reason my sub-directories got moderated, but not
the main one. So, here's the links for the moderated directories:

A truly excellent model! My version, non tilting, Metroliner liveried with
40 stud-long coaches
http://www.nbltc.org/images/gallery/events/s021116/whtunnl.jpg will be
showing at the NBLTC show at LEGOLand Windsor tomorrow.
It looks better with the 33deg yellow corner slopes at the front, which
luckily I managed to find at a past Red Letter Day at LLW. I also plan to
replace my 45 deg roof with 33 now that they are readily available in black.

I only wish I could get a hold of a couple of those 3x3 yellow corners.
You are VERY fortunate. And I've seen the pictures of your haul from
that Red Letter Day - I can only dream <whimper>.
