One week from today is setup at the Mall

Imagine in one week we will have a train running at the Mall.  By next Monday if all goes well the stage will be built and covered, the double main line track will be laid down and trains will be able to run !  The two Christmas tree circles will be  ready and hopefully the elevated line will be completed or at least very close to it.  That will probably take the most time as bridges and trestles need to connect the risers which have to be pre decorated.
We will be cutting up some tablecloths that are earth color to cover the risers to represent "mountains or hills".  The risers are box shape so that we need to add some broken up pieces of styrofoam under the cloth to make them look like rough terrain.   We can use as much as we can collect, so if you have some that you want to get rid of, here is a good way.  Drop it of to us on Monday, Nov 8th at the Main Mall.   The layout will not be decorated until later in the week.  That will give us a few days to make adjustments and check everything out.
