| (...) I remember that one well. Excellent :) (...) This is true. But making this took my entire luggage allowance so any expansion would involve mailing stuff etc. Doable but a pain. I have actually considered that style of project for my own, very (...) (14 years ago, 22-Jan-11, to lugnet.trains, FTX)

| (...) Thanks, I didn't get any good shots of the hotel but let's say it was inspired (ahem copied) by your work. I'll fix it up and take some pics sometime. I've also got a three piece MOC that I think you'll dig. Tim (14 years ago, 22-Jan-11, to lugnet.trains, FTX)

| (...) This is excellent. I love the fence and also the angles of everything - the roads and tracks. Looks very realistic. Look forward to the next one. Jonathan (14 years ago, 21-Jan-11, to lugnet.trains, FTX)

| (...) I don't know if this is a coincidence or not, but Paul essentially confessed AND ratted you out on my FB page just today! LOL Hope that you didn't throw out a shoulder, Benn! :-P JOHN (14 years ago, 21-Jan-11, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.trains.org, lugnet.trains.org.tcltc, FTX)

| (...) Heh heh heh, who'd of ever thunk that TPing someone would turn out to be a mitzva. I thought I had a photo of my coconspirator in the act, but I can't find that shot of Paul now. I've got to say though, tossing those tiny rolls was murder. (...) (14 years ago, 21-Jan-11, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.trains.org, lugnet.trains.org.tcltc, FTX)

| --snip-- (...) Thanks. That's just what we were after. Something that looked like a real model train diorama made from LEGO. Tim (14 years ago, 21-Jan-11, to lugnet.trains, FTX)
| | | | | Re: Ararat 1972
|
| (...) Wow that is impressive. I particularly like the way you have ballasted the track and used tiles as ties. That combined with the "straights as a gradual curve" technique make the track look awesome. The quality of everything else matches and (...) (14 years ago, 20-Jan-11, to lugnet.trains, FTX)

| (...) Hi John, I hear you on the 1x1 plates although I think the ballast round Victoria is quite smooth which is why it doesn't have them. Mike built the track and as one of the most pedantic train builders I know I assume he had a reason ;) (...) (14 years ago, 20-Jan-11, to lugnet.trains, FTX)

| (...) Thanks. It certainly does take a lot of space although we minimised the brick use by building only what was needed. Tim (14 years ago, 20-Jan-11, to lugnet.trains)
| | | | | Re: Ararat 1972
|
| (...) And you should be! I like it. Layouts like this make me want to build LEGO trains myself - alas, it takes a lot of LEGO and a lot of space, even for a small layout. But I can dream... (14 years ago, 20-Jan-11, to lugnet.trains)
| | | | | Re: Ararat 1972
|
| (...) Fantastic layout, Tim! I love all of the details; especially the track (;-), although I do think that you guys need to do a little 1x1 plate greebling around the track beds to break up the uniform stud pattern. Is the plan to detail all around (...) (14 years ago, 20-Jan-11, to lugnet.trains, FTX)

| (...) I missed this the first time around. Love the use of fleshies, and I love the dark orange. The trains aspect is especially gratifying. Well played, Keith! JOHN (14 years ago, 19-Jan-11, to lugnet.space, lugnet.trains, FTX)
