Whoops! I didn't pay enough attention the first time around... The baseplates
should be lined up with the inside, not with the outside of the tracks, if that
makes sense - there's an extra 8 studs of baseplate on the outside of this: (TD
doesn't have 8x32 baseplates)

This is important because of a couple things - the baseplates as I've got them
have the track & baseplate edges lining up - makes it *much* easier to assemble
and not worry about track segments sticking out and banging into things when
moving.
Sorry for not being clear about that the first time,
James

| (...) Just overlap the baseplates to give the result you want. As long as it fits on a 4'x10' table and the tracks are where they're supposed to be, the baseplates etc. are irrelevant (to me). :-) SRC (24 years ago, 26-Jan-01, to lugnet.org.ca.nalug)
