that one was fairly huge, but (...) You mean I have a bigger layout than Larry? Man of 96 blue hoppers? :) I'm really quite suprised. As far as it goes, right now, the layout is as big as it is going to get until we move back out west. Hopefully, (...) (25 years ago, 13-Oct-99, to lugnet.trains)

This model is starting to come together nicely. From the side it looks great, but from the front you notice the height.. you prolly need to find a place to scavenge a row of bricks or even 2. That's gonna be tough and still keep the Amtrak headless (...) (25 years ago, 13-Oct-99, to lugnet.trains)

(...) Paul, I have this -little- train layout set up in a spare bedroom. It -only- has 500 pieces of straight track in it. :) And my wife wants to kill me :) No, seriously, I have a room with a lego setup in it. Including town, and shelfs across the (...) (25 years ago, 13-Oct-99, to lugnet.trains)

Paul, While I don't have a permanent layout, I've got a mobile one that goes on the floor at any time. You're probably referring to people that have permanent layouts and tracks in position, so I guess I'm not one of them, but I can access my train (...) (25 years ago, 13-Oct-99, to lugnet.trains)

(...) I've got a large board (about 4 foot x 7 foot) for all my Lego models - and most of the time it has a train layout on it. The layout's not nailed down or anything though - I change it every couple of weeks and will remove at some point in (...) (25 years ago, 13-Oct-99, to lugnet.trains)

I'm curious, how many people actually have train tracks set up and available at home to run trains on? Some folks, it is obvious from the web pages (like Joe D) that they can run trains anytime but I was just wondering about others? Having just set (...) (25 years ago, 12-Oct-99, to lugnet.trains)

Worked some more on the Amtrak loco. I tried to incorporate mods based on all of the feedback I've received. Some things I'm just not good enough to accomplish. A fun model to work on. (URL) though train creations/locomotives Thanks for the comments (...) (25 years ago, 12-Oct-99, to lugnet.trains)

I collected names and pledges. I have not sent out a note in a few weeks because there appears to be nothing to say! I have not heard of any new news on this in a while. I estimate there is a 1% chance something will come of this at this point. So I (...) (25 years ago, 12-Oct-99, to lugnet.trains)
