(...) This is TCLTC so it would be their *first* layout I think. (whoever "they" are... J2 hasn't said who else is working with him yet, but with the jamup in the GMLTC basement there's room for more clubs in the twin cities!) (23 years ago, 28-Sep-01, to lugnet.trains.org)

Just a teaser pic of one of our "mini-modules". Due to area constraints in my house (where the basic layout will reside), I can only have 15" wide modules along the "back" of the layout. I will post a schematic of the floor plan as soon as I make (...) (23 years ago, 28-Sep-01, to lugnet.build, lugnet.trains.org)

I really did the red&white canopy.

Looks nice. The see-through nature of the thin-walls make it seem a little too "empty" though.
