Argh!  Well, I finished writing this reply once, but then I had a Browser
error and it closed it before i sent it through!

I was glad about the re-release of the Metroliner and Club Car too, but I'll
have to wait to get the Metroliner.  I'll probably order the Club Car within
the next month.  I also face the limited space issue.  I currently have a
70" by 80" area to work within.

There was a post awhile back from someone in the Murray, KY area.  I don't
know if they're still there or not.  The most likely place to find other
people would be Lexington and Louisville.  I can see if anyone from TennLUG
would be interested in helping out.

I prefer the general LUG as to an exclusive Train Club.  I like to branch
out into other themes every once in awhile.  :)  Doing a train layout as the
main emphasis is fine with me.
