In a previous post somewhere in this newsgroup, it was mentioned that LLC had decent access for wheelchairs, etc. However, does anyone know if they rent out wheelchairs or motorized chairs?

I don't know just how rare these brick buckets are, but it seems like I'm seeing less and less of them. The Mt.Pleasant Wal-Mart (near the CMU campus) still has about 7 of them, at $4.50 each, if I remember correctly. At 400 pieces, that's a pretty (...) (27 years ago, 30-Aug-99, to lugnet.loc.us.mi)

|
|
I may soon be having access to a bunch of 4.5v train sets, that I'll probably be auctioning off (since I'm not a huge train fan). However, I don't usually see much about 4.5v trains, it's usually 9v or 12v trains. Is this because there aren't a lot (...) (27 years ago, 30-Aug-99, to lugnet.market.theory)
