Thanks Mike,
You have a couple of daunting looking pictures you have up there :\

Uh, I meant...You have a couple of daunting looking picutures up there! :\

I'm trying to approximate how many bricks its going to take me to do
something like this and I'd appreciate your empirical data.  All my data is
based on paper calculations, which, though it bears some resemblance to
reality, is generally not as accurate as real life experience.

Thanks,

I believe from my memory that I can build four 30"x45" modules with about 200 of the blue tubs. It would build 3 normal modules and one 2x4/2x6 hybrid module. The hybrid would use 2x4 for the walls and 2x2 for the towers, but use 2x6 for the lattice (...) (23 years ago, 16-Dec-00, to lugnet.trains)
