This Fri.pm or Sat.pm would be okay also. Agreed, more people is better.

Haven't been to Walmart recently. Only value packs I know of are the $49.99
ones at Target. Too steep for me.

This sounds wonderful and would be my preference.

Prefer building to sorting. HOWEVER, I will sort for Fabuland ;-) !

Mike, if you are able to come could you bring the G2K PNLTC video? I would
like to borrow it/see it.
While I can't imagine having any parts to trade, the rest of you sound like
you do. Specific elements you are looking for???
I am looking for a train to buy for my 10 yr old for the holidays. Starting
at ground zero, so a bit of everything is needed. Only after I have filled
her request can I think about one for me.
Gosh, I hope this gathering happens... I am tired of being a "responsible
adult".
