| (...) This was unfortunately thrown together, we did not have time to make it look more like a village (we agreed to do the show 6 days prior to the show). The person who would bring castle figs/casts/scenes forgot, so we had to populate the village (...) (20 years ago, 8-Jun-04, to lugnet.castle, FTX)

| (...) Nice looking layout. I'm obviously a fan of the medieval section in particular. About the burning house, two questions. Why are the birds hanging out on the still flaming house and what's with the guy in the dress? I'm not sure why, but I (...) (20 years ago, 8-Jun-04, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.castle, FTX)

| About 10 days ago, COLTC displayed at Marcon 38. Despite the small layout, we managed to show quite a bit of new stuff. Another skyscraper (One Nationwide): (URL) a space Area: (URL) a Medieval Village: (URL) and a small town section under attack of (...)

Why can I see this popiing up on Train and town layouts all over the place.:) All it needs is some gauking onlookers standing around, getting in the way Aaron A who is now reconsidering what to do (...)

| (...) I like it, especially the smoke!! Last week I made a similar CCC house on fire: (URL) made a small fire "engine" with people pumping water (yes, a blue flame for water...). We displayed it at Marcon (show report will follow soon). Next time I (...) (20 years ago, 8-Jun-04, to lugnet.castle, FTX)
