  Re: Home layouts
 
I do and it's a lot easier to set up. Before, the living room was carpeting but it was getting old and my dad and I decided to take it out and put in a wood laminate fooring (Pergo). I don't have a layout all the time but I can set up one any time (...) (25 years ago, 13-Oct-99, to lugnet.trains)

I've got a layout set up in my bedroom. My roomate and I rescued a ping-pong table from being thrown away (basically we were asked to throw it away, so we said ok and kept it.)
