Fantastic idea. I'm up for it.
Do you know if any of the US LTC clubs have standards for interconnecting
each other's sections? If so, we could adopt those and plan a sectional
layout before we actually met.

I've been round enough of them, I can probably rustle something up.

Although I always had it in mind to be a wagon repair shop, my building
would be equally suitable for a small loco shed, and in fact I took some
photos of it being just that. I'll post them sometime.
I'd also like to see some decent passenger trains now that bulk windows and
doors are available. I have scrapped my metroliner and will be building some
loco-hauled stock, probably still in ML livery. If we all did something
similar, we could get a decent length train going.
