Hi  Christopher,

I wont be able to make any large contributions. But the idea is great,
compliments.
The hard part would be the selection of pics and models.
Their a lot of pics all over this community concerning home made trains.


if there is enough interest from the community.

But please repeat this message, your own of course a few times. Ask Todd if
he's willing to make another subgroup for this project just like he did for
the LEGO Europe 2001 happening. There has been a lot of nice material
brought in by Mario and Reinhard.

What I would like to do is produce a book in pdf format that we can
distribute for free on lugnet and possibly print up a bunch so that the
various LTCs can use them as a fundraiser at events(2).

Right

I think the book should be divided into sections:  Here's some tentative
ideas for sections:
-locomotives
-freight equipment
-passenger equipment
-MOW equipment
-trackside structures (signals, towers, etc)
-larger buildings (e.g. roundhouses, freighthouses, stations)
-details

What about bridges ?


Keep up the good work

Nico

Have fun and keep building
