(...) Well I will give it a try, it was about 2 years ago that we set it up so some details may be a little off. I will also say that I have some very good family resources in that my Mother is a Lawyer and my father is an Accountant and they gave (...)

(...) Eric, can you tell me more about why you set up the club as a Partnership, what where your other options (i.e. non-profit group, Incorporation, etc.) The reason I ask is that I've been thinking of doing something simliar with the NGLTC but I (...)

| | My attempt at designing a layout for Greenberg
|

I decided to start a new thread to detail my vision of what our next layout could look like. (That nasty reversing loop has been successfully eliminated). Layout (URL) let me say I am supprised how much more flexibility 3 tables gives us. Here is a (...) (22 years ago, 5-Sep-02, to lugnet.org.us.nelug)

(...) I inadvertently included a reversing loop. It won't affect any MOC's but I will need to move or eliminate one or two switches. No big deal but I didn't want anyone calling me on it before I owned up to my boo-boo. Eric (...) (22 years ago, 5-Sep-02, to lugnet.org.us.nelug)

(...) OK this is my try #4 and possibly my last try until we talk about it more at a meeting. This is actually nearly the same as #3 in terms of MOC location but I made some modifications to the sidings. (URL) is the parts list. (URL) havn't been to (...)

(...) I agree that we should maximize our space as much as possible, but I'm not sure that adding an extra table will do that. If I add an extra table then I have to put an extra hole in the middle of the layout. The hole then becomes constricting (...) (22 years ago, 4-Sep-02, to lugnet.org.us.nelug)

(...) First we loose one entire table with this design. I would really like to maximize our space as much as possible. Second, as you point out, there is a lack of siding space in general. Third, and least important, is there isn't the option of two (...) (22 years ago, 4-Sep-02, to lugnet.org.us.nelug)
