At the same time, and as always, do what you need to do for the sake (...) (21 years ago, 19-Jun-03, to lugnet.org.us.lucny, lugnet.people)

Hey that sounds great! Congrats. I'd like to see if I can drive up and check out the Club's display. Good for you guys, keep up the good work. Looking forward to seeing pictures at the very least. Good Luck LUCNY! BTW, I'm not sure I've heard from (...) (21 years ago, 19-Jun-03, to lugnet.org.us.lucny)

(...) And I think I was there 67 of the 70 hours, plus setup and tear-down... I'm still recovering from it! But, you'll have a great time. The "Thomas" people are a bunch of nice folks to work with. And there will be kids! To paraphrase Neo: "Kids. (...) (21 years ago, 19-Jun-03, to lugnet.org.us.lucny, FTX)

(...) Kevin, *ONLY* 6 days ;) Try 7 days totalling about 70 hours like the GMLTC did back 04/25-5/04 when the Jackson St Roundhouse hosted A Day Out With Thomas. (URL) seriously, good luck... You will get LOTS of your target audience, train crazed (...) (21 years ago, 19-Jun-03, to lugnet.org.us.lucny, lugnet.trains.org)

As for a LUCNY/GardenSlug event -- I am all for it and I think Wayne Sardullo was trying to gauge interest several weeks ago but did not get any solid answers then. December seems so very far off -- too far to really plan for at this point. LUNCY (...) (21 years ago, 10-Jun-03, to lugnet.org.us.gardenslug, lugnet.org.us.lucny)

More specifically, they will be having a holiday event on December 7, 2003. That whole back of (...) (21 years ago, 9-Jun-03, to lugnet.org.us.gardenslug, lugnet.org.us.lucny)

(...) Agreed. I like it a lot. I think I will copy it (if you don't object). My club (LUCNY) layout needs something just like this next to our train station. Since I copied the train staion from a Michlug member's design, it seems appropriate to (...) (22 years ago, 3-May-03, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto, lugnet.org.us.lucny)

(...) Ah. My design is actually a bit different. You can see a little better at (URL) (I'd have to look for the original digital image to make a better outcrop). Suzanne's designs all use the 1x2x1 curved piece, but the red inner on mine is a 1x3x2 (...) (22 years ago, 2-May-03, to lugnet.org.us.lucny)

(...) My design certainly wasn't. Putting the Breezeway windows sideways like that was something I came up with on my own looking through Railroad Modeler. Checking now, I see a few Art Deco details on baseplate.com, but nothing like this... Peter (22 years ago, 2-May-03, to lugnet.org.us.lucny)
