Our Friend’s son in Erie does also make syrup. Lines everywhere running to a pool and they ended up building a pressure boiler shack. Quite the set up. Are you this complex?

Great seasonal look. The use of snow as a prop is great. Maybe tomorrow you can post the ice planet version!

When I did this before at WPARRM, I did have to answer number of questions, but I made it easy for them. The first meeting I had with them, I brought some building, trains, vehicles (just sets) and they were sold. It took a little more to work the details as they are an organization with a structure, history, and like to work a certain way. We…[Read more]

My goal was really to see if the Western PA RR Museum team would be interested in permanent larger display of legos and use these as the starting point. I would love to have the Lugs team (whoever was interested) work to integrate and refresh portions of the display bi-annually. The problem was they were not open this year, so they are on hold for now.

Wow, nice ideas. This was your calling!

That is what I thought too. I decided to go out on a lim and drive to West Virginia to buy it. It was the real deal. Some of the blocks are aged, but must are not and there are over 250 monorail track pieces, 7 vehicles and working motors which was my main interest. I was surprised by the amount of bulk legos, 9V/12V train and accessories and…[Read more]

Close to it. It is from 1989. Over 500,000 pieces and a ton of extra pieces.

Dan,
Lots of fun ideas! More to come.

I hope this picture work. Will never get used to the small file size.

Nice Idea. Here is an example of the track that the original owner had. Quite elaborate. He was an architect, so he did a nice job of sketching it out.

Welcome Mark. There are some really creative individuals int he group!

The 9:30 to 11:00 slot will work if you are not going to use them. Please be sure you are the first priority.
Thanks, Len

Good evening Josh,
Do you have any tickets left for the brick bar? My wife said she wanted to go….so why not. If I could get 4 it would be great.
Not sure what you may have left at this point.
Thanks, Len

Nice. I do not have the Eiffel Tower. For some reason I did not see the Alpine Village. I really like the idea of the lego backdrop of mountains.

Paula,
Thanks for your teams work yesterday morning.
Len

Just getting back. I plan to be there. Hope to see some of you in person.
Thanks, Len

I generally break down all the buildings and all the scenery and put them back in their boxes. I only have the modular building on shelves in my basement. Very little re-use of scenery.I use a paint brush to dust them every so often. There are a decent amount of old blocks in the the white snow, so watch out where those huskies go.

The train “standards” would be a decent thing for me to help out with to sort of work my way into it. I will be out of town 2 of 4 weeks in January, but February should be better.

This set-up took me about three weeks to complete due to the previous one being set up at Thanksgiving. There were lots of details missed.
