Re: SAMRA Train Show

[Scott A Smiley <sc.smiley@juno.com>]

With the new switch modules at 6' each and then 3 modules for sidings
that make 24' just for the sidings.  Then add 9' for the corners.  This
means that the track is 31' in one direction.  I think we need at least 3
modules the other way to be able to do an L  so this is 21'  They can use
the area out side of the L.  I think it would be worth getting Ira to do
a layout with the new switch modules to give them the dimension sand left
over area.
