(...) So, I wanted to mention this at dinner, but didn't get around to it, and all of a sudden, only Technic people were left... :) The layout is getting too large. We need to cut it down in size quick, or we'll have a lot of unused space which (...) (22 years ago, 12-Oct-02, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

(...) Looks fantastic, Derek. I think there's going to be a lot of competition to install cranes into the Portlands :) I'd like to point out (Jeff, pay heed!) that there's going to need to be a mountainfront cliff and two tunnel entrances where (...)

Wow, that's a lot of shoehorning! I think you're going to run into four basic problems with this layout: 1) Curves into Calum's station aren't going to work 2) The geometry is a bit iffy, which will lead to track breaks 3) The tight parallel curves (...)

Hi... I am unable to come to the dinner tonight as I have a family get-together this weekend in the Windsor area. Keep me informed about the goings on in the meeting. I have come up with a possible design for Trebuchet. Thanks, Ben (22 years ago, 11-Oct-02, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

(...) Ok, I did up a picture of this idea. Marked the modules in Red. (URL) worry about the strange cross over under Altenburg. We don't have to talk about that now, I know how much Chris hates it when I talk about modifying parts. :-) Derek (22 years ago, 11-Oct-02, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
