It has taken me way longer than I would like to get to this point, but here is a tentative master plan for the BrickFest™ 2003 public display layout. (URL) is a space plan rather than a track plan.

Lar, What about crowd barriers and skirting? Normally the layout is not open to the general public at any time so crowd barriers / plexiglass isn't used, but since this year there is a public time should we plan on bringing our standard barriers (...)
