I really like the idea of SIGs.  There is more then trains to display.  :)
Although you get the basic 'where to display' problem, 'cause there are
about a million train shows around but much fewer sci-fi displays and
practically no Castle displays.

It would be cool to see a few SIGs popping up.  I, of course, would like to
participate in one, although I only know of one spacer within an hour or two
of my city(Kyle Keppler).  *cough* anybody around Jacksonivlle, FL?  *cough*
