         Re: Now Chris & Larry are away, let's plan! : ) —Larry Pieniazek
     (...) Um, how did you do that? I wonder if you sized it on the screen but it printed bigger? It was way longer than 16 studs as well. (as was the MichLTC sticker but since it was not nearly as tall it didn't have the height problem) ++Lar (at this (...) (23 years ago, 16-Jul-01, to lugnet.org.us.michlug)

     (...) This boxcar would be for later... no big rush. (I got inspired by seeing the GFLTC, NGLTC and NCLTC boxcars all of which look very sharp). The logo, ideally, would be much smaller, taking up an area of maybe 4 bricks high by only about 10 (...) (23 years ago, 16-Jul-01, to lugnet.org.us.michlug)

        Re: Now Chris & Larry are away, let's plan! : ) —Rick Hallman
   I am totally clueless on this entire debate about a trailer, BUT if we do get one, how about detail work on it to make it look like half of it was made from jumbo sized Lego bricks. My mom came up with that one ;). Rick (23 years ago, 18-Jul-01, to lugnet.org.us.michlug)
