Imagine game designer Steve Jackson and a bunch of friends building Lego trains and tracks and scenery, including buildings and other props. Sounds like fun, doesn't it? The group calls itself the Texas Brick Railroad. A lot of members have children, so their meetings tend to be family affairs. Plus, as they're doing here, they often display their train sets at public events where -- yes -- their trains attract children like crazy. This video shows off both current Lego trains and some of the classic, no-longer-sold Lego trains that members have collected over the years, including the highly-prized monorails. There's a transcript, but face it: This is basically visual material, and worth checking out on a computer or handheld that runs Flash if your normal one doesn't. (We've requested an upgrade from Flash-only video, but don't hold your breath. It might be a good while before we get it.) http://a.fsdn.com/sd/twitter_icon_large.png (http://twitter.com/home?status=Steve+Jackson+Shows+Off+the+Texas+Bric k+Railroad+(Video)%3A+http%3A%2F%2Fbit.ly%2F10Jt67 R) http://a.fsdn.com/sd/facebook_icon_large.png (http://www.facebook.com/sharer.php?u=http%3A%2F%2Fgames.slashdot.org%2Fsto ry%2F13%2F05%2F20%2F1732255%2Fsteve-jackson-shows-off-the-texas-brick-railroad-video%3Futm_source%3Dslashdot%26utm_medium%3Dfaceb ook) http://www.gstatic.com/images/icons/gplus-16.png (http://plus.google.com/share?url=http://games.slashdot.org/story/13/05/20/1732255/steve-jackson-shows-off-the-texas-brick-railroad-video?utm_source=slashdot&utm_medium=googleplus)
