Hi Folks,

as some of you might have heared already, the FGLTC (First German Lego® Train
Club) is starting the 5th train event in Braunschweig / Northern Germany.

Braunschweig is a town right between Hannover and Berlin (and for e.g. just 415
km away from Utrecht). All you have to do is drive on the highway E30 direcly
to the airport of Braunschweig, which has an own highway connection, since a
while. The airport itself is so small that you can't miss us there. Just come
into this building:

You will find a map right here (sorry long link, you have to restore):

my=3&n=Lilienthalplatz+1&bn=Stadt+und+Region&bl=/d/infos/infos.fset&dx=4&dy=4&z

The meeting will be dated on 28th till 30th of December 2000, but only the 29th
is meant as visitors day (at least from 10:00 till 18:00).

We plan to make up a train Layout similar than last year. Pictures of the last
years fest can be found here, to get an impression, what you will get to see.

All people are invited to come along and meet some of the German AFOLs right
here. So far there will be at least 25 AFOLs in Braunschweig on Dec. 29th.

All kind of modells are highly welcome especially MOCs (not only train related,
but certainly most people are into trains).

Another planned action is a new record for longest train with uniform
waggons (maybe even longest train ever!). We have 80 identical waggons
so far and want to loan some more for this purpose. As a result we will
get a train similar to this one, but much longer:

If you want to stay overnight, you could try for example this:

Room for a night for 60 DM.

If you wonder, who I am:
I'm a 31 years old fan of Lego® and my main interest is in Lego® trains. If you
want to find out more about me, take a look at my Lugnet member site #448.

(...) That reminds me -- does anyone know when FGLTC was formed? I've got it listed here: (URL) the date of 1999-12-09 (9 Dec 1999) is in question -- it's the date of the first public mention of it that I could find. Thanks for any additional (...)
