  Events for Carlsbad Legofest?
 
What sort of events are planned for the Legofest? I've never been to one, so I'm just wondering if people will be bringing MOCs, creating some sort of set-up (town, train, space, etc.), etc. Also, are there any updates? Where and when will it be (...) (25 years ago, 11-Mar-99, to lugnet.loc.us.ca.sd)

(...) Well, the original pages are A4 (a bit taller, and slimmer, than our 8.5" x 11" pages in the States ;-). And the scans are also large, so you might find that the top/bottom would need to be cropped a bit, or you may need to reduce the image a (...)

  Re: 7777 Train Idea Book, Carlsbad Grand Opening
 
David, congrats on your win! I just got a really nice HP 895C color printer. Has anyone attempted to build their own 7777 book using the online scans?

  7777 Train Idea Book, Carlsbad Grand Opening
 
Hi folks, I recently won a 7777 Idea Book at auction. Even though it's a bit worn, it has been good to have the book to look at, since many of the illustrations and pictures span two pages. (While this works well in books, the online scans split (...) (25 years ago, 4-Mar-99, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.loc.us.ca.sd, lugnet.loc.us.ca.sf)
