(...) How about making a simple track layout in Track Designer, say 2 loops, and a small yard. Then we can plan some scenery around it, leaving a hole in the center for people obviously. Martin (24 years ago, 15-Mar-01, to lugnet.loc.au, lugnet.org.au)

(...) So is there any interest trying to set up a simple layout for June? ie Some trains, a few buildings, streets, maybe foliage, etc? (Heck, maybe even a bridge?) (Note: all references to SLUGs, STUDs, etc carefully obliterated...) ROSCO (24 years ago, 14-Mar-01, to lugnet.loc.au, lugnet.org.au)

This is getting silly. I hereby formally suggest we call Sydney-siders SLUGs, and get-togethers (no matter what area) StudFests. (SLUGs can call their get-togethers StudFest, SlugFest, Brick-o-rama, WWF, or whatever takes their fancy!!) ROSCO Martin (...) (24 years ago, 13-Mar-01, to lugnet.org.au)

(...) Maybe it's really a MUGfest. Since it's their home game. How about a national convention in Albury/Wodonga sometime (Syd/Mel-centric). Canberra would be the obvious choice, Albury may be cheaper. (24 years ago, 13-Mar-01, to lugnet.org.au)
