Happy New Year!
I've finally completed a new website showcasing my Lego train layout in the
NW suburbs of Chicago (ocassionally refered to as GMLTC south).  You can
check it out at "www.royal-train.com".  There was a lot of interest when I
managed to post a few of the pictures several months ago so email me if I
can answer any questions.  I'll be adding to it over the next few weeks so
check back periodically too.  Have fun!

Brian, this is the most incredible thing I've ever seen!  I can't imagine the
amount of work that must have gone into hand-painting all those pieces and
setting up and photographing the displays.  It's totally beautiful.  My jaw
dropped on almost every photo.  I love the banjo guys and the "Kathryn" loco
the most!

An obligatory "shame on you," of course, for painting LEGO pieces, but --
dang -- it sure looks professional!

I know first-hand that Brian does NOT paint the bricks.  The colors are from
various kinds of adhesive tapes, and they could all be removed without
harming the bricks (if for some reason he decided he needed to do that...)

I've seen a few of these trains in person, they are truely works of art!
(Brian also does 'N' and 'Z' scale trains, so he is used to working with
tiny details.)
