      Sorry for this last minute post!

      Once again we have been invited to display at this years “Santa Trolley” event which will take place on three weekends this year:

      Fri-Sat, November 29-30; Sunday, December 1st; Saturday – Sunday December 7-8 and 14-15

      Setup will take place the weekend prior, November 17 & 18. As with last year I will be available both days, so if there is anyone that cannot make it one day, they can come the next. I will also be available Wednesday November 27th afternoon/evening for any last minute building like a few of us did last year.

      Again, this event is only 3 weekends this year.

      The theme as always is a LEGO Winter Wonderland, but we cannot forget that we are working with LEGO here and in LEGO world EVERYTHING IS AWESOME!! So, as I’ve said before, I am not opposed to people bringing MOCs or things outside of the standard “town/city” theme. Also, as we have in previous years, we can plan on transferring many displays from Greenberg to the museum for this display.

      Sign up on the doodle!

              I literally just finished making a fireplace with animated fire. I need to figure out how to incorporate it into a build now, but I’d like to get it into the Christmas display. I might just turn into a community fire pit or something.

                I don’t know who would be able to take them but I sent 3 firetrucks, an Ambulance, and my black Emerald Night train to Greenberg with @randomdan. If someone wants to pick them up and take them to Winter Trolley feel free, just let me know who has them so I can keep track and know who I have to talk to about getting them back at some point.

                        Yes, sorry Josh, I meant to change that to Saturday the 23rd and Sunday the 24th starting at 11am. I’m also available Wednesday the 27th, if that works better for anyone else. I will have a layout posted tomorrow.

                          My fire pit is a half plate and we could be sure to bring the table with the hole cut in it to allow the mechanism to sit underneath

                            I will be there Saturday at around 11 or so to get things started. I can bring LUG stuff, a dino museum, and 9V track and should be able to stay for a while to help set up.

                              I will defer to either Wednesday or Friday morning (November 29). @laura, do you have a draft layout?

                                    My car is loaded up from Cranberry First Night and I hope to bring my things the Trolley Museum this afternoon. 🙂

                                      @laura, I have 2 32×32 baseplates to go somewhere (my Grimmauld Place row houses). I also have Bob’s HP sculptures which would also take up 2 32×32 area approximately. I’m planning on coming down late Wednesday afternoon. What would be a good time to be there?

                                        Tim, I set aside spaces for your stuff and Bob’s. When do you think you’ll be available today? You can text me when your on your way if you need to. Thank you!

                                          Does someone have photos of the final display for Santa / Winter Trolley 2019? Also, what is the date for disassembly?

                                            I’m not going to be able to make tear down this year. I’m taking the girls to a Christmas concert at our church at 5. Can I come get things another day?

                                                @greg, it’s this Sunday 12/15 from 5-7 pm.

                                                I’m planning to go down for the afternoon shift, take pictures for the Gallery, and stay for tear down. If you’re tied up and need me to bring your stuff north, I can do that as long as it isn’t too much to fit in my car!! Just let me know.

                                                @timf, I’d be happy to return the favor and bring your stuff north too (it’s just Grimmauld Place, right?). Let me know as well.

                                                  I don’t think I’m going to make it back on Sunday, can someone grab the fire pit for me? I’m not in a hurry to get it back.

                                                    When we pulled up for setup with our car fully loaded, Pete said, “good, the display has arrived!”

                                                    I was fully expecting to retrieve everything either alone but @rcgrier3406, if you think we can get your stuff in your truck and still have space equivalent to the back of my hatchback, I could go with you. 🙂

                                                      @skippermike, how big is it? Greg and I are going down together, and we’ll have both his and my stuff in my Outback. If we can fit it we’ll bring it back north with us.
