John, James, and Larry-
I took Jordans message to mean LEGO train club builders dont have to
spend a lot of time or pieces on actual trains. His message clearly goes
on to say that as a non-train guy weve got him thinking that an LTC might be
a good home for him.
|
Well, I think that too...most LTCs (in fact, most model railway clubs) are
happy to have people whos main interest is not the trains, but on other parts
that go with the trains.
|
And Jordan was right on the absolute scale about the
quantity of pieces -- I doubt there is an LTC anywhere that does a show with
more pieces in the trains than in the scenery. We can easily put 15,000
pieces in one building but I think any club would be challenged to get 15,000
pieces on the tracks!
|
hmm. I think that VLC probably has beaten that number. When we did the train
operating session, we had a lot of bricks on the tracks compared to the
typical train layout. And not a lot of scenery for it elsewise.
Come to think of it, I probably have close to or more than 15 000 pieces on the
tracks downstairs. But, I have even more than that in the buildings around the
tracks :)
