Another idea would be to instead of sending the cars around the country
would be for clubs to trade cars with each other. Each club make up a design
and replicated it, then trade with other clubs for their ambassador cars.
Probally need to glue the cars together so the clubs know that they're cars
won't be scavanged for spare parts.

One thing I thought of after posting this, now that we have some club or
another having a show most every month, maybe we could send ALL the
ambassador cars directly from one club to the next instead of each club
sending their own in and having to manage the return.

I am pretty sure MichLTC would love to have all of them at its show and
would make sure that they were a talking point in our interaction with the

(...) Good idea. Makes particular sense for clubs that show fair bit to be recepients... and for clubs that have the resources to afford to send out several cars to be the senders. Still could have a traveling box for the smaller clubs that only (...) (23 years ago, 14-Sep-01, to lugnet.trains.org)
