I will be sorting the tubs and building from here on out. If anybody wants
to come down and help sort/build modules, let me know when you can come down
(3 - 3 1/2 hour drive from San Jose) and I will treat you to lunch/dinner
while you are here. The time crunch for finishing my section of the layout
just got worse:
I would now like to mention that I will be showing the train layout at the
Legoland convention in July. I will give the details later when I get them
all worked out, but I thought I would throw this out as an FYI.
