(...) That's a nice interpretation. Yummy! It would translate as: THAT WAS CLOSE! You might disappear from the station! Please take care not to cross the yellow line on the platform. Also, if you see someone fallen on the tracks: * Watch the (...) (20 years ago, 24-Feb-05, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.off-topic.fun, FTX)

(...) I would like to see some LTC's attempt some traditional style model railroading background. Brickscaping is cool, but far to expensive. It seems to me, just judging from looking though old Lego brochures, that Lego trains and towns would look (...) (20 years ago, 24-Feb-05, to lugnet.trains)

(...) I find it's not a growth in quantity, more in quality... becoming more picky where to display, what to show and the quality of the display. Although specially that last one might also scare away new people... however it on the other hand helps (...) (20 years ago, 24-Feb-05, to lugnet.trains)

Steven & All, (...) Right. (...) Michiana-LUG / LTC is pretty stabile, we had a couple of new people, but mostly it is the same people in terms of the growth of the club. While it would be great to have more people, I don't think it is critical. We (...) (20 years ago, 24-Feb-05, to lugnet.trains)

(...) Interesting thoughts. I'm not of the opinion that a bigger structure layout is a better layout. But perhaps I'm biased as a newby. I certainly felt the presure to "acheive" when I joined a well established train club. I think that all new (...) (20 years ago, 24-Feb-05, to lugnet.trains, FTX)

(...) Thanks Steve, and your welcome, although I think I should have tried to hunt down a couple more chassis before publishing. 8) I'm hoping to get more, to make other MOW vehicles, such as a hi-rail truck or ballest tamper. Mat (20 years ago, 24-Feb-05, to lugnet.trains, FTX)

(...) Thanks Rob, A few of them? Let me know if you want to sell one. 8) I'd like to build a hi-rail truck as well. Or I could switch the Speeder over to a bit charG chassis, and use the 5213 for the hi-rail. This was a fun proof of concept, to see (...) (20 years ago, 24-Feb-05, to lugnet.trains, FTX)
