Hi there, I was wondering if your meetings were open to others or if it's a members only thing? I'm sort of interested in meeting other AFOL, but don't want to intrude. I live south of Boston, so you're the closest club to me. I've also been to the (...) (24 years ago, 6-Dec-00, to lugnet.org.us.nelug)

(...) Well I can think of a couple reasons why we went with 4 wide tables (40.25"x40.25"). 1. It was more economical. If we were to do 3bp x 6bp you only get one table out of a 4'x8' sheet. This way you get 2 tables per sheet. 2. We liked the (...) (24 years ago, 5-Dec-00, to lugnet.general, lugnet.org.us.nelug, lugnet.trains, lugnet.loc.us.ma)
