Nice artwork. Very nice! I can visualise the train now...
Here's what I am thinking. Why squabble over should it be cars, containers,
etc? Let's do them all... we could perhaps let the clubs do boxcars,
individuals do containers, and even let those with commercial interests do
billboards. This IS going to be a scenicked layout.
Bricks on the Brain,
Guild of Bricksmiths,
Brickmania,
BrickBay
Fletcher Jennings Fine Railway Products
Milton Train Works
Kevin's Creations
Guarded Inn
just to name a few, are all commercial interests and worthy of some mention.
Sorry to whoever I missed, of course
Also, instead of just LUGNET on a caboose, don't forget the other guys:
brickset
brickshelf
Pause (we owe something to our roots)
and.... rtl!
all non club non commercial orgs that deserve some mention, hmm? again sorry to
whoever I missed.
Office buildings and warehouses and tractor trailers and the sides of busses
are all other things that often have adverts on them. Let's have this be a
profusion of adverts. Make sure to include a URL whenever you can!
And if some club can pick up some commercial $pon$or$hip, real corporate logos
are OK too! For enough moolah, anyway.

Larry,
This was something I was toying with for our club one day, glad to see I'm not the
only one. I though what a nice way to make some money for the LTC would be to sell
ad space on the layout, boxcars, billboards, actual buildings (i.e. car dealers,
restaurants, etc.) to local business in the area of the club.
I was going to put a page together on the club site and see if I can get a few
local business try it out. Maybe do a few for free just to get some material for
promoting the idea.
Has anyone else tried this yet?

I also thought of trying ad space idea on my layouts, back in my solo day. But
now maybe I should try this idea with the club, it would be nice to get cash
for more stuff. Perhaps one day all the LTC could link up and get big sponsors
like COKE or TRU? Who knows where this could go, but don't quit your day jobs
yet!
