Actually, I'd say that at least 8, maybe 10 high, and about 8 wide.  The
whole teminal would need to take up two 48x48 plates, since my 6990 train
covers 54 lugs in all.

I'm not so concerned with building a structure that can contain an entire
train.  My main goal with this is to have a tunnel properly aligned on my
module so it can except the track and train of another moonbase participant.
If I can pull that off I'll be satisified for now.  If the monorail doesn't
even stop at my module I don't think I'll care.  I personally think just the
site of it zooming through will be cool enough.

How will we make sure that the tracks line up on each module?  The curves
are 32x32, and will not match up like the modules do.
