Spencer and Isaac have gone to great lengths to successfully incorporate the monorails into the layout.

   Little details like the telephone poles along the tracks are a great touch as well.

We have received a lot of positive feed back over the telephone poles. People really notice those. Being on the edge of the layout though, they really take a beating.

  
I found the vikings taking their plunder from the man on the street funny as well. Reminded me of a line from one of my favorite goofy movies of the 80’s: “We plunered! And we . . . pruned . . the hedges . . of many small villages”

That little scene is my personal ode to “Capital One”!!
