(...) The fact that the shows are already being put on is not direct 'support', but it is a *huge* boost to LTCs. (...) Cons are good, but people don't go to cons to see displays (I think). Brikwars would be good for cons. Or any other brickgame. It (...) (23 years ago, 6-Jul-01, to lugnet.trains.org)

(...) OK. I guess my point (if any) would be that exposure is good and different sorts of exposure is better. Anything that grows the market for adult stuff means I get better sets to buy... But of course that's not the real reason I or anyone does (...) (23 years ago, 6-Jul-01, to lugnet.trains.org)

(...) Hmm. I wasn't meaning to say that LTCs get support from TMRCs, although I see how it could be read that way. What I was meant is basically what you just said: you've taken advantage of the existance of train shows to pump the visibility of (...) (23 years ago, 6-Jul-01, to lugnet.trains.org)

(...) Feel free to elaborate on that, because I'm not sure I agree. LTCs don't get a lot of support from TMRCs (Traditional Model Railroad Clubs)(1), although they do leverage the fact that shows are already being put on in order to have a venue to (...)

(...) We had a kids table. It was definitely a hit. I think it was occupied most of the show. (23 years ago, 25-Jun-01, to lugnet.org.us.nclug, lugnet.trains.org)

To All, Wow, your display looks really awesome. There is so much to say, but it is great! I noticed there is a kids table, perhaps? Is that for one of those workshops, or another purpose? I loved the trailer too, at MichLUG's Contraption show this (...) (23 years ago, 25-Jun-01, to lugnet.org.us.nclug, lugnet.trains.org)

Nice photography shoot, Mike. I for one doubted that as a group we could pull this together, but I am delighted with how well it came off. It was a real joy to be there today. Although this is nothing new, it is a real affirmation of how many kids (...) (23 years ago, 23-Jun-01, to lugnet.org.us.nclug, lugnet.trains.org)

It would be nice to engineer it so it could be lined with a LEGO wall and be a canal or (...) (23 years ago, 25-Jun-01, to lugnet.trains.org)
