(URL) is what I came up with (scroll down to the train stuff...) THere'll be a mountain-ish thing in the upper right to tie in with Janey--so Janey, you actually don't have to extend into that area, I got it--we'll make the road continue into the (...)

(...) After seeing it wobbling together again at the show, I agree. Although I'm not sure that the ends of the bridge need to be INSIDE the piers - I think all my bridge needs is some vertical support at the piers. At an early show using my bridge (...)

(...) I want to rework the entier interface such that John's bridge terminates INSIDE the white pier on my side. This has always been a problem, largely because we never get a chance to have the entire layout together in such a way we can build and (...) (19 years ago, 4-May-05, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

(...) Reading b/w the lines, I think what John is indeed saying is that he'd love some modules so he can set up his very own train layout in his house. Now we just have to get Chris fully on-side, and rtlToronto is a whole new cuppa tea... Dave K (19 years ago, 4-May-05, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

After the problems that we seemed to have with leveling the layout, and the problems that imperfect modules can cause, I was thinking that perhaps we need some better quality modules... I am thinking of Asking Jen's father to help me make another (...) (19 years ago, 4-May-05, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

For our current train layout I have attempted to create a working lift lock. Attempt 1: The lift lock project started about a year ago.

The other car (a huge Mercedes sedan) had massive damage and (...) (19 years ago, 2-May-05, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
