Is anyone else taking their Ambassador cars to Brickfest? I'm trying to see
how many different events around the country I can get our NGLTC box car to
visit. I've actually started making little stickers to go on the back of the
car that list the events it's traveled too. So far its the GMLTC at the
Kidvention, and PNLTC for the world record event. I'm hoping to keep sending
the same car around the country for a while and not have to build a
replacement or a second one.
I'm going to take it to Brickfest then FedEx it to Dan so it can make it to
both events this summer.
