This is one of two modules done by Tom
Gilchrist.  This one is 6' long and about 4'
at it's widest.  The module includes a station
the roundhouse and an engine shop.
 
The other module can be seen in the distance.
It has the container yard and the grain elevator.
It is 2' X 4' with a 1' "tee" for expansion on the
side with the grain elevator.  Modules have
either 1" or 2" foam on plywood bases.  I use
plaster cloth on the surface after track is laid.
The scenery is put on that.  Most of the buildings
are just sitting on top now.  However, I will cut
out the plaster cloth for mounting each one.
No ballast on any track.  There over 35 switches
on these two modules.
