As far as space, I'm flexible.  I don't have any of my old modules together,
so I can build into whatever size requirements you need.  In a layout that
size, I don't think we really want to have multiple load/unload modules, so
I guess that will wait for another show.

In the future, I'd like to do a fancy layout with IndyLUG having several (3 or 4)
stations and a few trains.  I'll have to draw out what I was thinking, but it
includes a non-GBC train, and switches.  (I don't remember how much we talked about
it.)

But, this time, we're again doing the layout pictured on the LafLRC web page
<http://www.laflrc.org/> (same size as October)

I have the train loader/unloader, a timing module, and my Jigsaw Tower.  Each is on
a 32x32 plate.  Greg is building a ball counter on a 32x64 area (64 wide), and Kerby
will only commit to a 32x32 square, because he's using all his parts for 3T.  :)

That leaves one 32x32 straight, two 32x32 right corners and one 64x64 straight (with
a train track passing through 40 studs from the front).  The right corners are tough
to build, because the in and out are in the same corner, but we can pretty easily
bypass those, if it works out that way.

So, I'll write in Bryan's duck for a 32x32 square, and John will have his same 64x64
square.

Anyone want a corner?

Steve

(...) Steve - you can probably count me in for the January show if you need me. I suspect the Duck can be made to look like something that goes with a train layout, along with my new conveyor (not the one I had in Chicago). So, keep me in the loop. (...)
