Hi there!

  Sorry for this very late reply...

Jim and Cheryl Martin sent this to my Amiga 2000 computer:

  That's a good idea... When I carry my own 30" x 60" [AF compatible *cough* ;) 
]
modul at the Laval Expo trains, I also try to add new stuff from time to time.

  I think that was the truss bridge module I have seen at Ottawa? I took some
photos of that... I also like how the trees were placed around the bridge...!

  Argh! That's too bad he was not there when I was there, as I would certainly
have loved to see and chat with him that sunday... maybe next time!...

  I think it is a good idea... and I know that transporting moduls and all
from place to places can be hard sometimes... Unfortunately, I am afraid
that Springfield is a bit far for me... but you never know! :)

  See ya!
