  VLC News Release
 
I think we should put out a news release. If we were to get on the TV I think we'd have a good shot at some new members and support etc... - Xan's willing to write one up and send them out but she needs the following: - Show Address, dates and (...) (23 years ago, 25-Jul-01, to lugnet.org.ca.vlc)
 
  Re: Switch Track Modification - A better way!
 
You can use a motor to control both New or Old Switch Point easily, there are 5 switch points in my layout, some are new type and some are old type, all of them can be controlled by RCX smoothly! I don't know why the modification is needed? (...) (23 years ago, 25-Jul-01, to lugnet.org.ca.vlc, lugnet.trains)

  Re: Switch Track Modification - A better way!
 
I'm trying to make sure that I understand the purpose of the modification (being the modification guy that I am, I like to know what and why others modify pieces).

  Re: Oh oh, Huston, we have a problem...
 
(...) The horror is over! I've made the modification (See public message) and it's working fine. (Just gluing now) Except for a scar there is nothing out of the ordinary. It will work great for the show. Also, I finished the RCX Track power (...) (23 years ago, 24-Jul-01, to lugnet.org.ca.vlc)
 
  Switch Track Modification - A better way!
 
Today I realized that my modified switch track was the wrong way. A right instead of the needed left. After the horror of modifying the first one (I used one that didn't work well, figured it would be best... No so. Nasty, the metal contacts had (...)

  Re: Help -- wardrobe truck
 
(...) First, you should not try to combine wardrobe and makeup into 1 truck. It's never done that way. Secone, don't try to fit too many stations into one trailer. A standard 20 foot trailer would contain only 4 stations plus storage space. Stagger (...) (23 years ago, 24-Jul-01, to lugnet.org.ca.vlc, lugnet.build.minifigs)
