Hi all, Just wanted to say that I enjoyed Thursday's NELUG meeting. Next time, given enough notice, I will try to change my work schedule for the day. That way I might make the shopping at TCS. It was nice to meet some of you and be able to put (...) (23 years ago, 9-Nov-01, to lugnet.org.us.nelug)

(...) what we have so far. If we stay with that for the upcoming show, does that mean the tables are full of models? Or did we still want to see some newer MOCs at that scale?

Some people were wondering about the layout configuration for the upcomming show at last nights meeting. The main reason I have not done a new one is because the layout is going to be the same size at this show as the last with basically the same (...) (23 years ago, 9-Nov-01, to lugnet.org.us.nelug)

(...) Yep, that's the one. (...) Hmm, I'd never seen that one. Nice. As mentioned, a minifig with a tricorn hat would be easy to do. Frank (who used to ride the B&M Budliners, and lived about 3 blocks from the Concord Depot). (23 years ago, 8-Nov-01, to lugnet.org.us.nelug, lugnet.trains.org)

(...) Now this is a great idea for a potential "alternate NELUG Logo". If we took the old B&M Minuteman LOGO and replaced the image of the "Minuteman" with a Minifig and the text with something more appropriate we could have a pretty cool alternate (...)
