I guess the question is - Who is bringing trains to run on the big
layout? I was planning on bringing only one engine and consist. Do I
need to bring another set?

I figured I would run the donated tin plated sets on the 6 x 11. They are in keeping with that layout.

To: Everyone running in the 6:00 - 6:30 time slot.
I will be there for my 5:30 time slot. I am not bringing any trains and will simply run club trains.
If you want to get more run time: You can have my 5:30 time slot ALSO.
You can have my 5:30 - 6:00 slot, but you would also need to fulfill your 6:00 - 6:30 slot.
So, you would have 1 hour of run time.
I don't know what layout I'll be on. I am going to assume the 6 x 11.
Sincerely,
Rick
