Mall Setup Report for November 1-2

Setup began at 10am on Thursday, 11/1 with the arrival of Terry with the trailer. We unloaded the trailer and brought in the buildings loaned by Ernie Packard for the Holiday Train Display.

The tables were ready and work began with added the new "over the rail" split jaw clamps to each track. Members took sections to work on once the John Jackson Drawbridge was in place to provide a starting point for the main platform.

This layout will be left in place once we close so it can be used next year. The club will purchase new track for other events.

Setup continued on Friday 11/2 with Terry Norton, Ben Braithwaite, Peter Richards, and David Blue. By noon all tracks were complete. Terry and Dave were putting in electrical runs for tracks and buttons. Dave made excellent use of the "creeper" dolly he brought to the Mall.
