Aliens on the Club Layout
Author: RFandPFan

There is a rather non-descript warehouse on our club layout.  There have been many rumors that it was a secret government facility.  Well our Club President found the warehouse door open today and our worst fears were realized.  Alien corpses are being stored there...he provided this photo...

It's a Campbell kit that I built 30 years ago.

It's another government coverup. This creature was previously seen at Area 51 undergoing experiments. He must have got away from them.

That figures.  Probably was transported by the PC trailer to the right (...there will be a slight pause as someone from the Northwest comments)

The Penn Central trailer should have been our first clue of the government cover-up!

This was a small cockroach but it mutated to a larger size due to exposure from unshielded DCC carrier and command frequencies on the layout.

You want to be vigilant about keeping wasps from nesting inside tunnels over tracks.
