Tony,
Besides the Ambassador cars, do you guys want people to bring rollingstock or
other stuff?
I'll be driving down from BayLUG for both days (guess I'd better make hotel
reservations already), and could always bring some train stuff if it will help
out.

| Thanks for the offer- I'll run it by the club list. I think we are probably set, but it doesn't hurt to ask. I'm looking forward to meeting you, as I have you to thank for my cheap Duplo train accessories that I picked up on S@H specials. -- Tony (...) (23 years ago, 23-Jul-01, to lugnet.events)
