Along with this renewed interest, I would again like to see and facilitate articles in the Dispatch about module planning, construction, and operating. Photos would be a big plus. This invite is not only for new modules. Photos, trackplans, how I came up with my design for existing modules are just as welcome. If your club has built a sectional layout (not to SMODule standards), that is also of interest; track planning concepts, construction techniques, etc. are still applicable. Ted Larson
