John,

NGLTC did a train show this past weekend, (Jan 19-20). Due to time constraints, the layout was similar to the one that was done at our last show in November. New parts of the layout included some additional Cafe Corners with an insert, to make a 2x3 baseplate city “block” of Cafe Corners. Carl Wilson was inspired by the new Rebel Trooper pack to make the Yavin rebel base from Star Wars episode 4. With the recent 3-story “Brick Inn” hotel filled with Star Wars characters, this prompted an inside joke of either a) There was no room to live at the rebel base, so they stayed at the hotel, and b) you could take the monorail, or a charter shuttle bus to the “secret rebel base” located in the town (next to the Waffle House...hey, those surviving rebel pilots have to tell some stories...)

Attendance was lighter than past shows, primarily given that there was the all too rare occurrence of snow in Atlanta, starting about 30 minutes before the show started. Before the snow, there was rain, so much of the Georgia DOT was recommending everyone to stay home and not go out on the roads.

I’ll put some pics on my flickr account--soon as I decide to clean some pictures, or upgrade to a pro account...I’m at my picture limit as a free member.

(...) Sounds great, Scott-- I look forward to seeing them. But why not on Brickshelf? I have to admit that I hesitate going to Flickr-- I just feel more comfy viewing LEGO MOCs on BS. Ahem, and be sure to start your own thread! :-) JOHN (17 years ago, 23-Jan-08, to lugnet.trains, FTX)

Are you kidding me? SIX DAYS without a posting in trains???? This really sucks. And I only have myself to blame. And I blame the holidays for my recent inactivity, but that only goes back so far. So, I'm pledging to return to the days when my mouth (...) (17 years ago, 17-Jan-08, to lugnet.trains, FTX)
