Jason, Well, I guess the best thing to do is to figure out a few things: 1) Our size for Novi 2) What additions are we adding to the layout 3) What would be a good place, corner, etc. It would be a good topic to talk about at the meeting, one week (...)

James, Are you planning on making the mountian out of all burps? I had a similar plan in mind that used lots of green bricks like Jeff's mountians at Train2. Anywho, I suggest you have one track running through the mountian and one on the outside. (...) (25 years ago, 27-Aug-01, to lugnet.org.us.michlug)

Ok, I now have enough BURPS to start construction on the Mountain. But I have few questions. 1. Should I have two tracks running through the mountain or only one? 2. Should it be built for a corner or a straight run of track? 3. If I do indeed build (...) (25 years ago, 27-Aug-01, to lugnet.org.us.michlug)
