It wasn't an earthquake. Brickmond is experiencing a budget crisis and we
couldn't afford the weekend overtime for engineers to come in and adjust the
monorail elevation for the new Santa Fe. Instead, in haste, we chopped down the
nearest evergreen and toppled a smaller stanchion to prop the track. Luckily,
no minifigs were injured in the crash that alerted us to the designers flaw.
Set up can be difficult when the museum is only open 9 to 5.
