Thanks John, I was thinking about taking it outside and doing just that. But first I'm debating on whether I should make up some KFC decals to go on the side of it. Most people around here know what it is with out the decals, but it just seems to be (...) (24 years ago, 12-Sep-00, to lugnet.general, lugnet.loc.us.ga, lugnet.loc.us.ga.atl, lugnet.trains.org)

(...) Awesome work, James! That is *exactly* what I like to see-- regional clubs exhibiting regional stuff! It is things like that which make particular train layouts memorable and unique. Hey, let's see some pics taken outside from the same camera (...) (24 years ago, 12-Sep-00, to lugnet.general, lugnet.loc.us.ga, lugnet.loc.us.ga.atl, lugnet.trains.org)

(...) Well actually - no. Our club (NALug) is all LEGO, not just trains, and we are having our first train show in a couple of weeks. Laura's feedback is very helpful and interesting, but I only read it because it was in lugnet.trains, which I read. (...) (24 years ago, 6-Sep-00, to lugnet.trains.org)

(...) You build it very solidly, put gutters around the table to catch bricks, and have one or two members watching it. You don't include *any* personal stock or anything you care for dearly in the Kids Rail Road. They will take it apart. Even if (...) (24 years ago, 5-Sep-00, to lugnet.trains.org, lugnet.trains)

(...) My experience with kid play areas on one of my LEGO layouts at a train show was that I let the kids touch or modify any moveable portion of the entire layout - small layout of course.

I have a question for all the LTCs that have had "kid play areas" on thier layouts. This summer we at the NGLTC had a section that the kids were allowed to drive the trains, and this October we're planning on going a steop futher and having a full (...)

(...) Oh, I'll take this bait: LEGO paid about 80% of the costs to get the GMLTC and our layout out to Carlsbad. That's it. That's *every* "sponsorship" deal the GMLTC has ever received. We lose money on every show we do, even the occasional show (...) (24 years ago, 5-Sep-00, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.trains.org)
