The team preparing the
JavaOne Conference display on
JMRI open source model railroad interface software and
Turtle open source model
train circuit boards met again at our house in San Jose yesterday.
My husband John had put in time in advance putting down “grass”
(different colors of shredded foam) and ballast around the tracks for
basic scenery. John also built a stand for the layout to sit on.
He and Bob and Jon and Dave spent yesterday programming and
wiring and testing the little layout.

There may be time for one more work session before the layout goes to
San Francisco’s Moscone Center on Sunday. The
JavaOne Conference
opens 16 May 2006.
