(...) I certainly am. Also, did you still want to trade my grey metroliner window piece for one of your black ones? Russell Clark (URL) 39423705 (25 years ago, 8-Feb-00, to lugnet.loc.us.ca.sf)

(...) I currently have a western style coach as well as a caboose built in the Virginia & Truckee yellow/green colors. I'm hoping to have a couple more coaches in other color schemes done. Russell Clark (URL) 39423705 (25 years ago, 8-Feb-00, to lugnet.loc.us.ca.sf)

(...) Ugg.. Zonker-man speakum truth.. I'll be sure to do testing at home too. But the good thing is that there won't be any (shouldn't be any) "unskilled handling" and "creative re-building" of stock like there was at BayLUG's first meeting, not (...)

  Structural weakness in MOCs?
 
Strangely, I've found that one of my MOC deisel engines doesn't hold up well in 'extended service'...after a few hours, I was suffering frequent structural failures. I'd fix one failure, and find another different one around the next bend. :-( How (...) (25 years ago, 8-Feb-00, to lugnet.loc.us.ca.sf)

  BayLUG/LTC Meeting Agenda and Modules Proposals/ideas
 
Hi All, I guess a big question is how many people are "in" or interested in both clubs. I would expect a lot of, if not complete overlap. I am also concerned that if we do not have a significant amount of "open to the public" time the Library may (...) (25 years ago, 7-Feb-00, to lugnet.loc.us.ca.sf)
 
  Re: Who has Metroliner cars?
 
At the risk of letting the cat out of the bag, I know of a person who has a s*** load of Metroliners. Any chance he will hook us up? (Hint, hint!) Beyond that, the only other person around us who has a Metroliner is the 3 car unit Eric McCarthy had. (...) (25 years ago, 7-Feb-00, to lugnet.loc.us.ca.sf)
 
  Who has Metroliner cars?
 
If we end up doing NMRA, it would be nice to have a monster Metroliner on the layout. I'll have at least 15 cars relatively soon (not all with full doors/windows - 3 4558s, 2 grey wagon plates, and 4 4547s), Mike has 12, so that's 27 already. Anyone (...)

  Re: Next BayLUG Meeting / First BayLTC Meeting
 
(...) Well, for depth, I refer to how far from the observer a module is. Height would be how deep from top to bottom. I know it is kind of ambiguous, but we will get it described correctly when we determine dimensions. I already built a subway in (...) (25 years ago, 7-Feb-00, to lugnet.loc.us.ca.sf)
 
  Re: Next BayLUG Meeting / First BayLTC Meeting
 
(...) A subway? Hmm, I'll get right on it as soon as I find a cheap Airpot monorail for the basis. :) But does he mean depth by distance away from observer or actual depth from top to bottom? Russell Clark (URL) 39423705 (25 years ago, 7-Feb-00, to lugnet.loc.us.ca.sf)
