So heres an already quick update--Janey and Iain are contributing to the

Yay!

So basically there are 2-3 modules for stuff--on each side of the lift
bridge.
The module attaching to the old portion probably just needs to be all water
with a way to hold the track in place.

The water is 1 brick thick, studs to the left.
I have some small grey piers which hold the track up. I think this means I will
need to start modifying my modules to have the track go out to the rest of the
layout.

THe module next to Janeys upper loop and the train yard will more than
likely need some serious landscaping to bring hte elevation down form the
upper loop to the waters edge.

One of the things you and Janey (and anyone else participating) will need to do
is to sit down and figure out all the elevations. Derek did ours with a simple
topo map:

Each person then built interface edges to each other. I built mine against
snapshots from Jeremy, my meetup with JeffVW we figured out at a show.
