(...) This one is just too cute! I like how you used the screwdrivers to represent the hydraulics that move the digger arm. The shaft and handle makes a nice representation and seems to fit in scale very nicely. This is a much better use of a (...) (17 years ago, 21-May-07, to lugnet.town, FTX)

Hello! I have decided to add a 16'(or possibly 18') x 2' section to my current layout. It will be along one of the walls in my layout room. This unfortunately means I have to move my current layout tables over appx 8" to give me enough space to walk (...) (17 years ago, 21-May-07, to lugnet.announce.moc, lugnet.town, lugnet.trains)
