(...) I've dl'ed this (the powerpoint file) from Brickshelf. Larry, if you are reading this, would it be OK if we replaced the PNLTC logo with our own? Robin (24 years ago, 30-Oct-00, to lugnet.org.ca.vlc)

(...) Hand out Steve Barile's handout which shows the train specific lego parts. Only run a few off, put one in plastic and pin it to the skirting, then hand the rest out to the "serious" people who pass your initial screen ++Lar (24 years ago, 30-Oct-00, to lugnet.org.ca.vlc)

Just a thought. I've done a few of these at home, using good quality T's, an ink jet printer, and that T-shirt iron on transfer paper you can buy. The results are quite good. It would be fairly easy to print up a few with the logo, etc. Cost would (...) (24 years ago, 30-Oct-00, to lugnet.org.ca.vlc)

(...) A great idea, but I don't think we have room for it. My guess is that any space beyond our 16' x 6' is allocated for aisles and walkways, etc. Perhaps instead, we should allocate a corner of the layout for a small selection of lego train boxes (...)
