>>>>>> Chris Burger <cbtrainnut@ Subject: Stating S-Scale Modular Club I am looking for suggestions as to what others have used in the way of
modules. I am leaning towards the NASG plans as of now and using 30 inch by 72 inch modules. Would also like to use 3 main lines or two with a branch line running alongside. <<<<<<<<<<<< 6' long is great from a design point of view, makes laying out the switch locations much easier than with 4' long modules, but they greatly complicate transportation and storage flexibility. I find that there are many vehicles that can handle 5' long modules, but not 6 footers. 6 footers can also become quite heavy. I do like 30" wide vs. 24". Regarding power, I believe that if you build to the Smod specs, you can use DC OR DCC, whichever you choose to plug into the track circuit. Regarding clearances (topic from another note), a clearance diagram used to be distributed with the S-mod specs. The diagram might be available from the NASG Mobley Library, c/o Dick Karnes.
