Folkz-

As many of you have begun to see from the 300+++ pics that have begun to
steam in, we assembled what was *quite* the array of ohsovery impressive
iron here @ //SFest last weekend.  Figured before my official recap is
composed I'd provide a brief synopsis.  

Take out yer hanky's for those who missed, a number of these WILL induce
tears - sorry!

TT - FIVE CARS!)

That's ~ 87 toys, just from memory...  87 of some of *the most
interesting* and amazing machinery one could ever hope to assemble
together.  I especially enjoyed the boxed fender line I constructed up
top, what an array!  You folks rule for coming.

Looking back at the pictures it seems a year ago already, and a very
surreal reality indeed.  Each year, we keep on saying "HOW do we beat
THAT!???".  I sit here, again proclaiming the very same.  What have we
done?
