The ModulesThe Modules were built to take to PWMRC events and local train shows as displays. They have to conform to specific NMRA and club standards for rail positioning and wiring at the ends in order to mate with modules from others. Kurt has an 8' railyard that splits into 3' and 5', as the 4' mark spilt across the middle of switches. These two must always be displayed together. They form a small industrial section of a town and drop into his layout to form the town of Addon. Christopher's module is a farm scene, complete with 3 generations of people, horses, cows, chickens, and assorted pets. Michelle's is a drive in theater, small park, and diner, complete with lots of HO scale classic and antique cars. The theater is a working screen. The design of the modules was originally to draw in the ladies who frequent the train shows and are bored. Everyone sees something different on this module.
