Either one can be done with white bricks, of which I have (...) (24 years ago, 13-Mar-02, to lugnet.loc.us.pa.pit)

This may be old news, but I spotted Fort Legoredo at the SH TRU yesterday, along with two other Wild West sets and apparently the last copy of Armada Flagship. Not much else to report, but Wild West fans may be interested. Dave! (24 years ago, 25-Feb-02, to lugnet.loc.us.pa.pit)
