Congrats indeed Larry! I have rarely seen any adult recognized in the Lego
Mania Magazine. I have always admired you "train guys (& gals)" your work
is very impressive. My father has an very nice collection of classic Lionel

One day we will venture up north and I'm sure we will both stand in awe. My
hats off to all of Yall and your recognition, which was well deserved.

| Larry & All, I just saw the Mania magazine last night, and saw Larry in there. It was pretty neat, even MTLC was mentioned! : ) I am glad they have included some of the train clubs, I know I am excited about it! Scott S. -- (23 years ago, 25-Jul-01, to lugnet.trains)
