(...) That definitely works for me too the only issue being 5 because I don't know if I will have the official passes by then. Otherwise there is no other reason why we couldn't do it then (assuming it has stopped snowing by then...) Eric Kingsley (24 years ago, 5-Mar-01, to lugnet.org.us.nelug)

Eric, I have taken the day of the setup off of work, so I could come by and take a few things in my car. It's not a very big car, but I should be able to take a few things. What time can we get in for setup anyways? Tom D (...) (24 years ago, 3-Mar-01, to lugnet.org.us.nelug)

I think a standard would work for most of the stuff. But I don't think we should make everything look exactly the same. In real life there are different types of lights and signs and stuff, sometimes as close as from one street to the next. It all (...) (24 years ago, 3-Mar-01, to lugnet.org.us.nelug)

Hey Shaun, Thanks for the kind words I'm going to try to make it on the 17th. If I do go, I will probably just watch, and get a feel for the game so I will know how to play next time around. That train crossing was actually one of the inspirations (...) (24 years ago, 3-Mar-01, to lugnet.org.us.nelug)
