JRM forms with the idea of doing a japanese themed layout for the N Scale convention Dullas Expo, VA in the summer. |
Unfortunately we did not have enough time to get something together by the Convention, but
the show layout idea is launched. |

JRM assembles our first set of 2'x4' platform modules and begins laying out our track plan. |
The track plan and wiring are completed for the Timonium show. Scenery is left to perceived level with only colored construction paper below the track and buildings. |
