The town can be as solid as you want it - I was intending to leave that
section pretty much up to you. ie. There's tracks entering it here and
here, which should loop back to here and here and the overall dimensions
should be this by that. (6' across and some multiple of 2' long - max. 16')
It should contain a train station and the grain elevator. How's that? :-)
