CGCC layout
Hi all, You'll have to re-draw the layout plans without my modules. Rumor has it that my scumbag employer has decided to squeeze a more little profit out of us by eliminating all regular assignments.

Setup time for West Springfield Show?
Sorry I missed the meeting. I wasn't felling too well, and didn't want to spread it around. Do we have plans for Springfield? I took days off for that weekend, so I would be able to get involved. Fail

T-Trak operations day
Geoff, The 16th is the last day of my vacation. Setting up a layout sounds like a lot more fun than lying on my bed in a fetal position and whimpering! I'll bring my station modules. BTW, the Catskill
