| (...) Now that RichLUG container is SWEET! I just finished the IndyLUG containers this morning and I've got your name on one. Anyone know what the final swap totals are? I remember reading that a swap matrix was going to be up on a web page (...) (20 years ago, 8-Aug-04, to lugnet.trains.org, lugnet.events.brickfest, FTX)

| (...) Very Sharp! It's got that "old south" look to it. MichLTC/LUG look forward to trading. (Because we often do 2 shows at once, we're developing a second container, using MichLUG colors and logo which we hope to trade for second containers from (...)

| (...) I think the write up of the VLC train operating session is somewhere...anyway, the area we had was not really big enough, at something like 40x40 ft for a true end to end layout. I don't know how big you would have to go to have room for 6-10 (...) (20 years ago, 7-Aug-04, to lugnet.trains)

| (...) Mat, I like the way you handled the middle wheelset. It looks great. The two stud axel with the technic triangle widgit thingy (LD part #2825) for the extra 0.5 stud is a great idea. Where, by the way, did you get the spring? The local (...) (20 years ago, 2-Aug-04, to lugnet.trains)

GMLTC had mine trucks that followed a chain drive underneath a baseplate/tile layer, Magnets provided the connectivity. Eric Brok had this same thing for (...)
