(...) Yup. Good points. I think the thinking behind using 2x3 was that it's large enough to be a significant block.. it does not take roadways into account and thus won't work on a 30" wide module. If you go with a one baseplate standard it needs to (...) (22 years ago, 22-Sep-02, to lugnet.town, lugnet.trains.org)

<snippage> (...) I guess that's why a lot of clubs use the "defacto" standard of the PNWLTC train module specs. It fits 4 48X48 x-tra large baseplates or 9 32X32 large baseplates on a single module. (approx. 30 inches by 30 inches). Another (...) (22 years ago, 21-Sep-02, to lugnet.town)

(...) The trouble with this is that it can't fit on a 30" or 45" wide table. For some train clubs, it's important to be able to reach all parts of the layout. So I am against any standard that requires buildlings to be very big. But see below... I (...) (22 years ago, 21-Sep-02, to lugnet.town)
