  Re: GFLTC Take on Modules...

  Legomodular standards
 
Watch this space. A conference call (sponsored by Mercator Software Inc.) was just held among GMLTC and BAYLTC and I believe we've reached a consensus on legomodular standards, for module size, and for the interface points.

  Re: New LEGO train realism?
 
I think we are on the same track here. I am doing that as well. One option that I think all involved would want is that you can have a "section" comprised of X modules where nothing matches the module standards where they break up EXCEPT where the (...)

  Re: New LEGO train realism?
 
We use 1/8" thick plexi on the side of our layouts. It has several benefits. -Keeps straying fingers away from the layout. -Helps keep pieces from 'wandering' away. -Keeps the trains, when they derail, from going on the floor. -People can still get (...)
