I took about 90 photos at the showing and requested Picture CD service. In the meantime, I'm picking up the 1 hour prints today and will go through them to post a few on Brickshelf this afternoon (best guess, 3:00pm pacific/6:00 eastern). Steve, (...) (23 years ago, 10-Aug-01, to lugnet.trains)

Point well taken James, but i think we should look at it another way also. Trains don't exist in a vacuum, the town and environs really set the time period and overall look of the entire layout. When non-train or lego buffs see the layout (...) (23 years ago, 10-Aug-01, to lugnet.trains.org)
