The layout will cover an area 40' x 50' consisting of two
levels plus the elevated figure-eight platform sitting on
the top level which will give the layout the appearance of
having three levels. The first level will have a Thomas
track area with a wishing well, a logging mill with pond, a
train station display, a village area, a working coal yard
and TV monitors. The second level will have a circus theme
area, a farm area, a pond, a long tunnel as well as the
figure-eight.
The theme for the fair:
"GO HOG WILD"
Construction:
This layout required approximately 200 manhours to construct
(approx. 12 people working 3 days). There was 1800 pounds of
rock used, and $1100 worth of live plants. It included an
operating rotary coal dumper, operating sawmill, and
operating Harley Davidson motorcycle
parade.
