(...) 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)

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.

Hi, For the past couple of years I've been decorating my christmas tree with LEGO. Last year I used all of the Shell promo sets with the Batwing flyer (2539) as the "Angel" on top.
