(...) David - Where were these at the park? If they were in Brick By Brick, I missed them there. The only place I saw them was somewhere only staff could go, certainly _not_ open to the public. Then again, I was too busy to really actually see parts (...) (24 years ago, 20-Jul-00, to lugnet.dacta, lugnet.general)
