NovaLUG (Nova Scotia LEGO Users Group) will be displaying at the
Museum of Industry in Stellarton, NS
this Saturday and Sunday, March 10 and 11. We will have a 5 foot by 25 foot
town/train layout, and
a display and demonstrations of some LEGO robotics (both RCX and NXT). The
museum is open 9 am to 5 pm Saturday and 10 am to 5 pm Sunday. Regular museum
admission rates apply. The museum will be supplying a play area to build your
own LEGO creations. This is the first weekend of March Break in Nova Scotia.
The museum itself looks pretty neat as well, and includes
Samson, Canada’s oldest surviving
steam locomotive, built in 1838.
Setup will be a challenge for us, as we can’t get into the museum to start until
8 am on Saturday. We have never tried this large a layout with this few members
(four) setting up in this short a time. We plan on having trains running by 9
am, and hope to have the layout set up (maybe not the greenery or telephone
poles) by 10 am. Please don’t get between me and the timbits I need to pull
this off :). We will also be trying out a new for us RCX train switching
system.
