Pat, it is. The Triple Underpass marks the western boundary of Dealey Plaza where President Kennedy was shot. My module encompasses the Triple Underpass, the grassy knoll, Tower 106, and the T106 parking lot where several eye witnesses were present. A book about the Dealey Plaza, whose author is the archivist for the city of Dallas, provided a lot of initial detail for this project. I even have an HO model of the President's 1961 Cadillac that he rode in. My intention is to place it on Commerce instead of Elm street and to leave it empty representing an alternate reality of November 22, 1963.
It was a very complicated track arrangement. The T&P brought in a double main from the west, the Rock Island and Katy from the north, the freight tracks to the northeast, and the coach track to the northeast as well. There were something like 4-6 double crossovers and several double slips which are rare this far south with this much real estate. And most of them were over the bridge. I obviously couldn't model all of them and had to perform considerable compression to make it fit into a manageable module and something that is Free-mo compliant. The track plan went through no less than 15 major revisions over the last three years and several smaller ones. I feel the final plan captures the feel of Dallas Union Terminal, is Free-mo compatibility, and allows for accurate and efficient passenger train handling. Once complete the module will have a 45' X 22' footprint.
I waited a considerable time to ensure the MP-5 (

I am interested in seeing what is coming. Hopefully soon!
