  Mecha postings
 
I hate to sound like a party-pooper, but... I'm not interested at all in mecha. There's a lugnet.build.mecha especially for mecha. Do they *have* to be posted to lugnet.build itself as well? Especially since they produce such long threads of (...) (25 years ago, 13-Jan-01, to lugnet.build, lugnet.admin.general)

Is there something I'm missing? I can't find a tree structure to narrow my search in the LEGO guide. I had to wade through over 200 train entries to find the "Road 'N Rail Hauler" because I couldn't remember it's name, and searches of "container", (...)
