Some questions:<br>
What’s the advantage of not putting the track on a mils plate instead of the table? I’d think the opposite.The curves of the train track don’t fit on a baseplate. They are not standardized like the straight sections.
I have set up Lego track for numerous displays. It is much easier to NOT connect the track to baseplates due to the geometry of the curve pieces – only certain studs in the curve line up wth the studs on the baseplate. Plus, in our case, that is one less thing we need to worry about. 🙂
also, found some AMAZING brick built roads… http://gallaghersart.com/page/custom_modular_snot_roads_version_sp04g/quotequote=3809
ain’t nobody got time for that
Those look fairly similar to my brick built road. Josh, since I build the roads on their side, the road ends up being 13 bricks high/wide if it is a two lane road – each lane is six bricks wide with an additional brick of height/width for the center lines. If you go to double lanes, the road becomes 29 bricks high/wide – inner lanes are 6 wide, the outer lanes are 7 wide, and there are three road marking bricks (center lane, and the lane dividing lanes). This picture shows a three lane road: http://www.flickr.com/photos/41914153@N03/8190019666/in/pool-steelcitylug/. I will have to inventory my available road stock but if you guys could build a few sections (32 studs long) this weekend from the LUG supply, that certainly would not hurt.
