The Fall 2004 meeting in Austin was a great success! See the pictures here!. The meeting was held at National Instruments, and the theme was Space. Many of us brought Moonbase modules for a large layout. There were also monorail and train loops through the layout. And of course, separate displays of MOCs and sets were set adjacent to the Moonbase layout.

Sunday was great fun. We opened the layout to families of NI employees, and we had a nice turnout. The pictures explain it much better!

The planning for the TEXLUG meeting train layout on October 12, 2002 has begun. Please see the layout planning page.

Please remember that the meeting is not an exclusive train event. You can bring any other creation that you'd like. If it can be worked into the train layout, great. If not, we'll enjoy it just the same. It's great to see what everyone has built, and we'll enjoy seeing each other's MOCs.
