Here's a time lapse one of our members created for the setup at the Plano Show a couple of weekends ago:

This layout uses less than half of the modules we have.
Yes I'm in the video (doing much of the connecting track) - I'm also the one who pointed out the sign was up backwards (it goes up and appears white before suddenly appearing the right way around).

Re: Tex-N setup for the Plano 2012 Show
What era / region is the layout set in?
36C - Based out of 50H and 36F
Re: Tex-N setup for the Plano 2012 Show
Nice layout - reminds me of what I'll be doing this Saturday, but privately with six or seven guys and 37 modules - also less than half of what we have.

Re: Tex-N setup for the Plano 2012 Show
Era / region: Any and all! US show layouts, especially modular ones are much more of a mish-mash. Individual modules have individual scenes (eg. my 2ft modules cover fictional scenes based in rural Wyoming (modern but could be almost any time in the last 50+ years) and industrial red-brick England around the 30s-40s). So the actual trains can be anything from turn of the century through to the latest diesels covering a range of US railroads, LNER / BR (ie. mine), and less amounts of continental European and Japanese.
