Larry,
Thanks for the summary this is basically just as I see it at the moment.

Yes.

Good point. Trains are definitly the most likely thing to be displayed at the
moment so it is probably not going to be a common occurance that a group
displays LEGO Themes without also displaying Trains. Just wait and see.

I would say get the mailing list up and going (IOLTC is good with me). Until
then we can hash out other items for discussion here.

Module standards are a good thing (ala NTrack) but I think it will take a lot
of work. I doubt many, if any groups can afford to do GMLTC modules so that is
tough but maybe we could design some sort of "transition" module to go between
a GMLTC module and say a PNLTC module. I think the NELUG tables and the
WAMALTC tables have the same surface dimensions but I think our leg length
might be different.
Of course this only matters when we have 2 or more groups displaying together
but it would be nice to know if 2 groups modules would work together.
