I just posted pictures of the Vancouver Lego Club's layout at Trains 2001.
Take a look at

Absolutely brilliant. Train shows really are bringing out some of the • finest
work. And what I think is so neat is the *expanse* of it.

Thanks Larry!

I had a question, what is the placard (with the rail section) embedded in
the mountain (visible in
http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?i=82473 ) all about? Is it an
award of some sort? I didn't see a clearer pic at a short glance.

It's out plaque for winning the popular choice layout award at the show last
year. We didn't get it this year unfortunately, even with a twice as big and
4 times as good layout - there was a really excellent traditional MR layout
which won this time. I think there were not as many families and kids at
this years show as there were at last years, which might have something to
do with it.

So most didn't vote I'd bet... Since no one but the regular train people (...) (23 years ago, 13-Nov-01, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.town, lugnet.org.ca.vlc, lugnet.loc.ca.bc.van, lugnet.loc.ca.bc.vic)
