The Carnegie Science Center has announced Locomotion Weekend 2025 will be Saturday January 18 and Sunday, January 19, 2025, with set up on Friday, January 17, 2025. Note that this is Martin Luther King Jr. Weekend.
They are asking for an RSVP by no later than Friday, December 6, 2024. I guessing that we are GO for this but please confirm interest here.
I am available and plan to do this presuming others are as well.
I’m in as usual @timf.
I will be out of town this weekend, So I can not attend. That said, I would be happy to send along some fire trucks if needed/desired
I’m in. I’ll have plenty of trains for the grand loops and a ton more rechargeable batteries than last time.
Got new STEM and Pittsburgh train stuff, some of it quite long so please leave some room on the inside of the R104 curves. Of course the Schnabel car makes its return. XDLet me know any declassified details and I can share on the Phoenix Train Works page to attract people to the event.
Will, I have hazmat trains for your fire trucks. 🙂
Oh, and I have some new exotic supercars to add to the streets: the Cizeta V16T, Jaguar XJ220, and DeLorean DMC 12.I may be able to come Sunday depending on work. If I do come I’ll bring my Harry Potter train like last time. Doesn’t require much space and can fit practically anywhere.
@rcgrier3406 I thought you told me that CSC was supposed to be the 25th/26th when we were cleaning up the LAST Locomotion weekend 😉
I’ll plan to attend, but I don’t have much train or town stuff to display.
For the LUG’s ballasted tracks, how high above the base plate are they? I’m working on an extended Disneyland station and would like the tracks in front to be compatible with the LUG’s supply.
@mrmain18, here’s a cross section of the LUG MILS base with the ballasted track on top.
It’s 2 bricks under the track. See Bob’s photo for a cross section and 16 studs clearance, on center. Just a baseplate on which two bricks up then track. Or a brick and some plates to do that ballast on the side.
I’m doing the same elevation for my Behemoth bridge but I’m running 1×16 technic bricks under the track to use my double length module as part of the technic tower frame. And I have my platforms on the side not exceeding the height of the rail.
