LEGOPalooza 2011

NCLTC Administrator — Fri, 18 Feb 2011 14:35:28 +0000

The North Carolina LEGO Train Club will once again have a layout on display at LEGOPalooza. Danny Pikora is taking the lead on layout planning this year. New to the layout will be a brick built road with a parade route! A brick built road is just that – roads that are actually constructed from LEGO elements.

Final version of the layout plan.

LEGOPalooza up and running!

NCLTC Administrator — Sun, 14 Mar 2010 13:07:42 +0000

A bit of a delayed post – should have done this Friday night. Setup was fairly painless this year. The room was available earlier than expected which always helps with setip. The layout tables are slightly different than the ones we used for the plan which meant we had to adjust a bit on the fly but it worked out. The layout is a nice size – an “L” shape about 15′ on each leg.

Pictures will be posted soon but if you have a chance today, head over to Chapel Hill toi catch Day 2 of LEGOPalooza from 1:00 – 4:00. The room is much more spread out so the crowd problems we had last year are not an issue this year – at least they weren’t yesterday!

New Table Layout and Track Plan

NCLTC Administrator — Sun, 31 Jan 2010 02:04:38 +0000

I have made some changes to both the table layout and the track layout based on the recent NCLUG meeting. It occurred to me that there was a better table configuration that what I had originally picked. We still have a little space left for anyone who is still interested in participating. I have also moved the layout plan over to BlueBrick which is why the images look differently than they have previously.

NCLTC Administrator — Sat, 23 Jan 2010 11:42:08 +0000

This morning I posted an update for the 2010 LEGOPalooza layout. The 2010 layout will be “L” shaped and will be in a corner of the room making it easier to man. If you are interested in participating, please contact me ASAP.

LEGOPalooza 2010 Table Plan

NCLTC Administrator — Wed, 20 Jan 2010 21:07:52 +0000

The NCLTC layout at 2010 LEGOPalooza will not be as large as the layout we did last year. Last year’s layout was actually too large to manage with the crowd we had and not having a wall center “donut” made the layout difficult to man. This year the layout will be an “L” shape and will be in one corner of the room. A preliminary plan should be published in the next couple days but the table configuration will look like this:

LEGOPalooza 2010

NCLTC Administrator — Sun, 13 Dec 2009 15:02:23 +0000

NCLTC will have a train layout on display at LEGOPalooza 2010. LEGOPalooza is an annual public display put on by NCLUG at the Morehead Planetarium in Chapel Hill, North Carolina. It is a fun couple of days but usually very hectic. Looks like the exhibit space problem we faced last year will not be an issue this year.
