I think this is a great idea!

Formatting would be of the upmost importance for the 'book' to come together
as a whole.

I would suggest the criteria be at the very least photographs in three
resolutions, followed by ldraw instructions, then POV renderings.

These files would certainly accumulate to over most folks 5 meg limit on a
web page, so who would host it?

More importantly, who would put the thing together?

I would like to help, but I am not sure in what capacity.

My 2 cents...

We (PNLTC) have discussed this also. A printed version of such a book • would be
great but costly. An electronic version sounds very do-able. How would the
submissions be accepted? On what criteria? Would they all be accepted?

Are there any ldraw experts out there that are willing to help out? I find • it
very painful to use the currently available set of tools.

BTW Some of MOC instructions are on the PNTLC sight in various forms (Long
Island RR switcher, Chessie diesel, EP2 electric)
