LEGOPalooza 2011

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.

Resurrecting old show pictures

NCLTC Administrator — Wed, 28 Jan 2009 15:53:26 +0000

NCLTC has done quite a few shows over the years and pictures from the various shows we have done are scattered over BrickShelf, Flickr, and now defunct web sites. I have gathered up some of the old pictures and have started posting them to Flickr and creating pages for each show on this site.

I have posted pictures from a couple old shows, check out the page links to see some interesting old photos of the first few NCLTC layouts.

NCLTC at Southern Junction Train Show

NCLTC Administrator — Mon, 10 Sep 2001 02:47:00 +0000

This weekend the North Carolina LEGO Train Club (NCLTC) displayed our layout at the Southern Jumction Model Train Show at Dorton Arena. We were a little short handed but all worked out well in the end – our layout was a hit with the crowd, which was unfortunately a bit sparse. It turns out that the local newspaper ran the advertisements for the show on the wrong weekend and didn’t include the location. Ooops!

For more details and to see all of the pictures from the show, check out of the show write up page.
