And the BayLTC layout will be using the upper height exclusively, as our layout will include the optional low track at 4 bricks+1 plate. JIG: Where the heck did you guys get THAT MANY small black and gray plates? I can't imagine how I am going to (...) (25 years ago, 30-Mar-00, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.trains.org)

There are two 'standard' heights: 29 3/4" table + baseplate + 10 bricks + 1 plate 29 3/4" table + baseplate + 22 bricks + 1 plate (extra plate is used to represent 'ballast' under the tracks) The higher one should be close to PNLTC / WAMALUG (...)

I don't know who buys the most LEGO, or who has the most LEGO - but I think we can safely say that there are some pretty huge collections being represented on LUGNET and especially here in .TRAINS!

Hi Guys, I just added a search engine to the PNLTC web site and thought I would pass on my experience. I went to Atomz.com and they have a extremely easy way to add a search engine.

Well, it is easier to ask for forgiveness than permission. I think that legomodular could be claimed as deprecating a brand more than LEGO(tm)-Modular could. Either way, it would seem very silly to have their legal department crack down on a couple (...) (25 years ago, 30-Mar-00, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.trains.org)
