(...) Actually neither is LEGO but, I do have a train under my tree and another in my tree. I have an N-Scale trian in the middle of my tree (its a fake tree). The trains, of course, run in opposite directions. But what makes it really fun is that I (...) (25 years ago, 1-Dec-99, to lugnet.fun.holiday)

(...) This is my third year of having a lego train around the tree as well. Each year it seems I add another train and a little more track. So now there's about 25 feet of running track and three trains tooling around the tree. I should take a (...) (25 years ago, 30-Nov-99, to lugnet.fun.holiday)

(...) This is funny... When my wife was raising eyebrows at putting the little Advent Calendar sets on the tree, I said "Hey look, at least I'm not into trains... then we'd have a train running around the tree!"

Subject says it all... Whether you have a Hannukah bush, a Kwanzaa shrub, or a Christmas tree, it's your DUTY, if you have any trains at all, to get them running around the tree. This will be year #3 for me. Good clean fun. (25 years ago, 30-Nov-99, to lugnet.fun.holiday)

(...) Hi there (isn't this more of a storage issue?) I like your idea of recycling Lego packing materials and I agree it is helpful to divide up Lego that is "resting", but the polybags have one thing missing; a way to keep them closed. I find 8x8 (...) (25 years ago, 30-Nov-99, to lugnet.fun.crafts)

(...) Neat! using the Shell sets like that is a nifty idea. They're so small and cute. I almost did a similar tree last year with Erector sets. Erector/Mechano had a whole line of mini-sets...trucks, planes, moto's etc. but they were a bit too heavy (...) (25 years ago, 30-Nov-99, to lugnet.fun.holiday)
