They definitely fit well in Traindom, either stationery, or as a railcar. I
hafta admit though that at 16 wide, it would make an interesting Lego train
car :-)

Mike, let me just say thank you for all the work you did. Even though you live
out in East Farbistan, your personal drive overcame all. As it stands right
now, I think we do have a decent enough layout for the Hayward show,
considering it did just fine for the National Show. Unless any new brainstorms
come into play soon, I'd say just set it up the same way again.

On behalf of Roger Rothhaar, a Baylug member who rarely posts, and myself, I'd
like to thank everyone for the nice comments regarding the diner. It was fun
to build, and it was sure nice to have all the pieces required to do an MOC
about which I'm extremely pleased. It will have webpage all its own. Also,
thanks to my daughter for the Duplo Doggie as well (it will be replaced for
her collection :-).
Annnnnnnd... thanks to Tim Courtney for the idea!
** Special thanks go out to da man who helped with the window panes (you know
who you are, and I am very grateful for your help! Rock on! :-)
