To All,

All right, here are the pictures from this weekend, I apologize for the delay:

Here are some shots of the tables. As you can tell, I used crates and the
4x8 plywood, along with the 4x8 hardboard, it is nice, smooth, and it looks
like dirt, which is better than just plywood, for my own uses.

I dropped the Shell Station Carwash, as you can see here.

The only bad thing is that the wood is so large, you need a crate row in the
middle for additional support, you can see this one sagging a little.

Here is the pile of stuff to sort. (AAHHH!!!!!)

Here is my GT Engine (Yes, it runs on the track with the bottom stuff
removed!) pulling my Octan tankers. I will be getting a better Octan
distribution center for the next show, so I can use these.

Another shot of the engine, and the corner of DEATH:

This shot is the overall layout, I was going to set it up the way it will be
at the show, but I decided not to, since it will be rebuilt anyway. Two
loops, a total of 4 separate tracks for more trains.

Here is a shot from the dark, we need to get another light on this side! I
had the Metroliner and the Railway Express on the passenger loops here, and
the train station, which will need some repair, it seems to have weathered
the trip home poorly.

Here is the other side of the station, and my connector for both loops. You
can see the corner of DEATH as well.

Here is the Shell Station, I ran out of batteries, but I set it up with all
the people and flowers and vehicles and trees again. It is nice to see it
complete rather than in a few boxes. : )

Anyway, that is it! LMKWYT! Next step, elevate it 3 bricks, and get auto
switches in there too! HA HA HA HA HA HA HA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

To All, I had an interesting weekend, Lynn and I went to Lowe's to see what we can come up with for our future plans regarding the LSF (LEGO Storage Facility), ah, basement, and came up with some hard numbers. Also, we bought 4 4x8 pieces of plywood (...) (23 years ago, 18-Feb-02, to lugnet.org.us.michlug)
