@Ron_S posted:What a fun way to show off the hobby Peter. What is the setup/breakdown times for your modulars?
I separate it out in two ways......the frame includes electrical, legs, clamps, jumper track sections, plexiglass and curtains........and then the top decoration.
If we have 10-12 people......the layout frame goes up in two hours with one to two hours added for each member to decorate their individual sections.....depending on size and/or complexity.
For example: I have 18' x 32" to decorate. The station team has 18x6 ft to decorate, but there are 6 people. Tom (Gilly@N&W) has a corner, a bridge and a yard lead, of which, the scenery is partly modular. Ken (Kanawha) has a two corners and a 4 ft module. Many have just a 4' x32" module......so times are all over the place.
Take down......when the tops of the modules are cleared, it's broken down, packed and loaded in just under two hours.........as a separate issue, the clearing of the tops usually takes about an hour.
