I want to thank @rcgrier3406 and @joshhall for working so hard on the layout to try to fit the bridge. Hopefully by giving a…Read more

1. Except for one or two items loaded after the migration, it looks like the last image in the Media Library is from December 6th. Missing items would include the gallery photos for South Park Light-up Night and Winter Trolley, plus any photo submissions of Christmas ornaments from…Read more

Also the gallery for Winter Trolley won’t load, could be a casualty of the migration.

I could also take a look at waterfront Michael’s art store fabric department to see if they have anything in bulk on discount. I’m going there tomorrow-ish and could report back to you on anything I find (not buy in advance but report).

As far as getting stuff from the Trolley Museum to Locomotion Weekend is concerned, it’s already been covered in the Locomotion Weekend thread. @timf, @joshhall and I have already made plans for Tim and I to take or get what we need in terms of MILS…Read more

As long as we can have that 40″ gap (4 baseplates) via a couple custom made tables, I can make the bridge work within the tight footprint. If the bridge is on the narrow end, I can forgo the cargo flask platform on the Schanbel and it should be able to fit the R104 curve leading into the tower module.…Read more

On another note, I still have (4) LUG commercial tables (6 ft. x 30″), (4) LUG chairs and the easy-up that Greg donated to the LUG earlier this year sitting in my garage. If they’re needed for any of the December events, let me know and I can arrange a drop-off or bring them back to @jo…Read more

As of right now, the…Read more

The 2026 summer reading theme for the Collaborative Summer Library Program (CSLP) is “Unearth a Story,” which focuses on dinosaurs, paleontology, and archaeology. The slogan, “Unearth a Story,” invites layered interpretations, encouraging readers to discover the joy of reading, uncover history, or explore the past.

@joshhall soon as you talk with them, let us know what they are planning to do for us.

Sorry @timf, I was down in Bethel Park Saturday and offered to pick up the bricks if @joshhall was around. Didn’t realize it didn’t post. I can go down and get it if needed to make up for the problem.

Let me know.

On another note….anyone build with BURPS? I…Read more

As Krista advised these are currently at @joshhall‘s house.…Read more

Also, I’m looking for a volunteer to bring the track down next month, as long as that’s okay with @joshhall! I talked with the GM Brian and we thought it’d be great to market a family style event!

@joshhall what…Read more

I have sheets prepared for the trains and the bridge. As a heads up, if you feel uncomfortable operating the bridge, you can crawl under it. Just watch out for the Spiderman minifigure hiding there. LOL

As for the batteries, I…Read more

I really liked the idea from last year of having a print out of how to change batteries and maintain operations of the trains and other electric/motorized displays by everyone. I’ll generate a how-to sheet for my trains and bridge (bridge is really easy to operate as it doesn’t run on batteries and the trains ran well at…Read more

1. Staffing: As of this morning, there are (3) shifts that are “understaffed”, meaning less than (2) people signed up.
* Sunday, March 9th – 9:30 am – 2:00 pm. No one has signed up, need at least 2 people.
* Friday, March 14th -…Read more

But in all seriousness, I’d be happy to coordinate build challenges.

@joshhall I have some of the curve MILS track sections and your wheat fields (and some other misc bits) at my house. If I don’t participate in H&G this year, I’ll need to get those over to you before…Read more

if they are at the trolley museum, @joshhall could you please reclaim them when you get the LUG tables for the H&G Show?

thanks!

I also made some changes to update where we’ll put @greg‘s Train Shed (2 baseplates) and Switch Tower (1 baseplate) at…Read more

So @joshhall, @timf and anyone else, if you got something you’d want to see from that ride along…Read more

When I arrive early on Saturday to set up the big trains,…Read more

The rest of the week most of my participation will be Sunday Evenings/Tear down. If needed and my hospital work schedule will allow it I might be able to…Read more
