Great job! looks complicated, ah well I'll figure it out eventually.
Good start on the website.
Maybe it's not new - but - I really like the idea of having spurs on the permanent club layout where member and/or guest modules can be installed for special occasions, open houses, etc. Allows those folks that can't afford a full layout at home, or live in a community that has not yet hosted a permanent club layout, to be a real part of large scale community! Good on ya!!
We need to consider making a directory of clubs that have this capability.

Don,
Thanks for the kind words....I'm still working on the "bugs" on the website also that is our goal, to get everyone involved in the hobby....and as you stated it allows folks that dont have either the space or budget to have a large layout at home...at current I think the club layout has about 1200' of track plus there is in the works a functioning Hump Yard that will be added during next spring....plus we have our own club forum in which everyone is welcome to..... not just our club members.....and the modules not only add size to the club layout it also adds more operations that way we are not just running trains in a loop......there is also a roundhouse/service facilities and steel mill modules being designed and built currently.
we welcome everyone in the area to stop by or if ya happen to be in the area and want to run some trains just drop us a line.
Just A Friendly Bump...... and an update. I have added our contact us info to our homepage.
happy new year to everyone!
