Today a couple of AFOLs met in Muelheim. It was great to meet all those people you only know by email and LUGNET postings! In the morning there was a sale in Muelheim and in the afternoon we build a big loop in the back of someone's garden (I think it was Ralf's home, not sure). Anyway we had a lot of fun running the trains and discussing LEGO-stuff! :-) Enjoy the pictures!

		Re: Meeting in Germany
Amazing models (I love the crane especially, being a vehicle headed type) and of course an amazing "shopping center". What kind of a shopping fair is this? A fan created one? There are great amounts of very very rare items, including the early (...) (24 years ago, 16-Oct-00, to lugnet.general, lugnet.trains)
