(...) Just a quick FYI from the GMLTC: I'll be bringing containers to trade, but since we are an 8-wide club (in fact I think we were the *first* 8-wide club), we would be perfectly happy receiving stickers in return. Thanks, and see you in a couple (...) (21 years ago, 29-Jul-03, to lugnet.trains.org)

(...) IIRC, you're a member of the nascent M>LTC, right? The containers are the standard 4x8 containers that LEGO uses. (1) These are somewhat on the small side, especially for clubs that work in 8 wide, but it's sort of tradition at this point. (...)

(...) Thanks for the info Lar. How does this generally work? Do all clubs that register bring enough containers to swap with all the others? Or do you choose who you want to swap with beforehand? Also it looks like some clubs swap stickers, M>ltc (...) (21 years ago, 30-Nov-03, to lugnet.trains.org, FTX)

(...) At BrickFest 2003 in DC we did an "incremental swap". Search for posts by Rob Hendrix around that time, he posted some very good explanations.

(...) I'm thinking about going to the brickfest in Portland. I just have to see what a plane ticket costs. And the other expences. Do we make one container for each LTC ? Or 1 container for each member off all LTC's ? And how do I put a order in for (...) (21 years ago, 2-Dec-03, to lugnet.trains.org, FTX)

If by "put an order in" you mean say that your club wants to participate, you would communicate that to the container swap coordinator once he or she volunteers.(1) If (...)
