Lego Trains

Although not directly related to train history in Minnesota, the Greater Midwest LEGO Train Club was located mainly in Minnesota. This fits into my train section because besides liking trains, I also really enjoy building with Lego bricks. As I kid I had a pretty nice collection, and I hoped to build on that after I graduate from college and get my own place with room for it. Anyway, I did not seen their layout, so all I can really tell you is to look at their website, and this picture of their trailer I spotted at the Jackson Street Roundhouse. Also, someone from my church I attended was a member. Unfortunately my inside connection did not enable me to view their layout before heading home. They set it up the weekend after I left at Mall of America. It was not their entire display though, so it was not like I missed everything. One day though, I will have to see it.

And here is another picture of me by a big Lego block by Mall of America. The sweat stains are because I had been riding my bike back from the Zoo and had my backpack on.
