In the long range planning department...

...Never too early to start floating ideas and building support :-)

I'm planning on spending more time in the train room for Brickfest 2002.
I would like to work with some folks to try and put on a good display of
train history. I'd love to set up a huge 12v layout, with both blue and
grey era track and trains. As part of that, one thing I'd like to see is
how long a 7740 style train we can pull off. I can also contribute a lot
to a 4.5v display.

Of course for other things, I'll be happy to work with the monorail
enthusiasts to see how big a monorail layout we can manage.

...That would be great. There were some displays of older cars and models and at
least one small loop of 12v track and some fun with monorail. It would be great
to actually have a bigger multivolt layout with trains of all diff varieties
going all over the place :-) And I would love to see a giant monorail!

...Just remember an important rule of planning for brickfest: we have short
memories! Keep reminding people and building support all the way up till the day
before you leave :-)
