The next PennLUG meeting is fast approaching on October 1st! There’s also a small challenge to our members check out the forums for details on the meeting and challenge. Hope to see you all there!

Railfest ’11 was a great success. We had a lot of good feedback from visitors and Steamtown had a lot of great displays. We hope you had an opportunity to stop by and see some of the displays put up but Steamtown. If you did miss some here are some photos of our display.

Steamtown’s railfest is quickly approaching on Sept 3rd and 4th. The regularly scheduled meeting will be September 10th! Please see the forums for more information and as always keep an eye out on your email boxes.

Steamtown is having Railfest 2011 on September 3rd and 4th in Scranton, PA. It’s going to be a great even to come out and see some of the heritage of Railroading. Additionally PennLUG is going to have a display up showing some of the LEGO custom train models. It’s bound to be fun for both young and old alike. We hope we see you there. Should be a nice change of pace after the recent earthquake and hurricane no?

Yikes the site went down… some minor technical problems… some clone brand parts… you know how it is… we’re back up!

BrickFair 2011 was very successful! Everyone enjoyed the layout that I was able to meet. Later this evening I hope to have some pictures of the event and the PennLUG display up on the site here. So look for this post to get a slide show.

Thank you to everyone who stopped by the PennLUG display and said ‘Hi’. 🙂

Howdy, Brickfair 2011 is upon us and setup has begun. Let me tell you the layout this year is tremendous and we are still working. Please come out to and say “Hi” and check out the group display!!
Public days Sat-Sun.

Evil Jack (Joel) posted some interesting information on a new LEGO Beta Site called Cuusoo. The idea is pretty neat if you can get 10,000 people to like your creation or project then LEGO might make that an offical LEGO set. It’s already been done for someone in Japan.


Discussion is happening on the forums, but also visit the official LEGO Cuusoo Site at http://lego.cuusoo.com/
