Speaking of train logo's, I've been impressed by all the many logos that the
LEGO train clubs have done--their take on actual railroad company logos.

I've been trying to hash out in my mind what kind of logo could be worked
out for rtlToronto.  Thoughts?  Suggestions?

the CN logo doesn't adapt itself well to anything but CN...

The CN Maple Leaf logo (pre wet noodle) is a fine logo to use but
technically not a fallen flag. Ditto the CP Beaver (pre black pie wedge).

TH&B would be nice, but trying to make it into RT&L?

Anyway, very nicely done on all the logos I've seen.

Many of those are due to J2. You need to contact him. Work out what theme or
themes you're interested, set the parameters on what geo area you want to
consider, and turn him loose. He does amazing work. If you manage him
properly that is. :-)

Go see:
http://www.iltco.org/clubs/

There are probably 7 logos on there that are NOT his work. All the really
great ones are in fact his work.

Probably he will have posted too, just as I am writing this. But praise
sounds more sincere when it comes from others. :-)

(...) So are you saying that the non-John logos are sub-par compaired to the ones John did? ;) jt (22 years ago, 28-Feb-03, to lugnet.trains)
