(...) We're straight out of modules I think. Is there any way you can build a railyard out of the existing sections of Curve SE and Empty SE (Ben's)? Calum (22 years ago, 14-Jan-03, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

(...) For an impromptu train yard, I don't think it matters that much for the inch difference--I'll bring my large baseplates and that'll help for the track spanning the drop. Bring 3 or more if ya can :) Dave K (22 years ago, 13-Jan-03, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

(...) Yes they are 6 of them, how ever not all of them may make it to the show. The are also one inch too short. I'm going to try and get some strips of wood that are 1" thick to prop them up with.

You know, I completely bafflegabbed that message. The joint between Ramp 1 and 2 is exactly *6* bricks. However, that does indeed mean that the joint between the 2nd and 3rd curve segment on that turn is 4 bricks, so we're good. Me not talk so good. (...)

So I note after looking at the wonderful layout done by Jeff, that there is no place to park all the rolling stock when not in use.
