This is an amazingly awesome idea.  It is always so cool to see the huge
town/train layouts at the various gathering and events. (Well the pictures
anyway I have yet to attent anything :-(  One of these times I will.)
The ability to make a huge space layout would/will be so cool.  My biggest
question is how would you fit the space trains and monorails into a Moon
Base.

A few ways I can think of off the top of my head:

-Easiest way.  Just have the Monorial track wrap around the moonbase.
-Slightly trickier method. (would be good for big layouts at fest) Have a
few modules prepped for monorial track ahead of time. Bring them to the fest
and have the track run though them (coolest way) or at least over a certain
spot on ther baseplates. Figure out where the track pylons will go and your
set.

Just imagine seeing several modules, (possibly all built by different
builders) with a monorail track running through them all. Ahhhh... Space.
