Peter & All,

Technical note: That picture would be a lot smaller if you saved it as a GIF
instead of a JPEG.  GIF uses run-length encoding so large blocks of a single
color, like this image has, compress very small.  Just something to keep in
mind for the future.

Well, considering I am at work, & the fact that I barely found a BMP->JPG
converter that did not require a Windows installation so I can use it (No
Admin access), I think it came out pretty good! : )I have to see if my one
converter at home can do gif's. I never looked.

But the layout looks great!  I'd recommend planning the monorail up front
rather than doing it ad hoc as we did at GATS-Novi.  This could allow some
up-and-down and/or switches among other things...

Right. As for the monorail, I think Chris has over 100 straight tracks, and
I am getting up there, 40/ 50? I have to count, I have been assimulating
since last count.
