(...) I've got two large sculptures that I was hoping to display at the hobby show, and I think we at rtlToronto want to use the hobby show as our second train display of the year. I think the timing is perfect for that. Derek (20 years ago, 18-Jul-04, to lugnet.events, lugnet.loc.ca.on, lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
