I told the Calgary organizer that James and I can commit to it,
but James' commitment is (quite reasonably) based on there being
at least four of us in total, but only one other member (John?)
was able to commit.  Therefore, as a group, we'd have to pass for
this year.  However...

Well the deadline (to commit) is tomorrow, and with it being the
largest model train show in Canada, if felt strongly enough that
there should be a LEGO presence there that I have committed
myself to attending and putting on a display on my own.

Michel: Obviously I'm going to want to borrow trains and track
from you.  If I use only my own LEGO, the display will be rather
sparse, and I can certainly fit more LEGO in my Honda than I own.

James (and Chris): What is the likelihood of the mountain being
ready in a couple months?  Perhaps an early version or rough draft?
It would be a good "real-world" test or "dress rehearsal" for it.

Michel and James:  I'll have room for some buildings - the grain
tower is probably the most impressive, but it's also quite bulky.
(I suppose we could store trains inside it to conserve space.)
The JJM park is great - are other buildings still kept together?

John: I didn't hear back from you about the LEGO I bought for you,
but I think my e-mail stopped working for a day or so back around
the time you would have replied - please resend if that's the case.

Kevin: I presume you'd like "Big Red" to be shown off in Calgary?

I'm going to try to get a bunch of LEGO from TLC for a kid's play
area.  There's supposed to be over 10,000 visitors, which probably
means several thousand kids. <gulp>  What have I gotten myself into?

(...) Grr. Well, the work-drive-setup-dis...drive-work cycle doesn't appeal to me, not with only 1 or 2 other people to share the load, but.... I'm in. Grr. No guarantees about not going postal after the show, though. I'll take the van down, which (...) (24 years ago, 14-Dec-00, to lugnet.org.ca.nalug, lugnet.trains.org)

  SuperTrain 2001 (was Re: Latest Larger Layout)
 
Well I heard back from the main guy organizing SuperTrain 2001 and from Darryl at the same time. It turns out Darryl doesn't actually live in Calgary like we/I thought, but 2.5 hours south. (Lethbridge?) Hence he can't commit to attending either, (...) (24 years ago, 11-Dec-00, to lugnet.org.ca.nalug)
