“Questions, questions, questions! Modern minds can come up with three questions. Peasant Pete is full up, so now he’s off to the Kingdom’s modern science lab!”

You could lay 36 straight roadplates end to end, place some bricks on each side of the road to create a fence and call that a 30’ MOC.

Right, and arguably that counts even though that’s not nearly as much work as a small.er creation with lots of detail.

I’m sort of curious what this question’s trying to get at. Train clubs and space moonbase displays are clearly exceeding 30 feet easily, on a regular basis, but that work is not the work of a single person.

We’ve had some very large individual creations that are part of layouts, too. but again, not necessarily 30 feet (Chris’s airport was only 20, I think, and Scott Sanburn’s gas station was another biggie. Steve Ringe has been bringing a built up layout subsection that’s at least 15 if not 20 feet long too)

Hope that helps...
