Perhaps they can start with something simple like letting the LTCs give out
Shop @ Home business cards at train shows?  SO many people don't realize that
LEGO makes trains - we get comments like that all the time.

What I would *really* like to see is a seperate 1-800 telephone number on
those business cards - so LEGO would have some sort of idea of how many people
are calling them because they saw a LTC layout at a show.

If someday LEGO decides to sell us bulk bricks - I mean *BULK* bricks -- that
would be fantastic.  (2x4 bricks in quantities of 5000?)  Bulk train track
would be great too...
