There have been articles written about this layout in SGauge Magazine and in CTT, I think the CTT article had a diagram of it...

Very good coverage of the history of the Gilbert Hall of Science layout is to be found in a two part series by Bob Tufts in the March/April and May/June 2006 issues of S Gaugian. The first part has three excellent photographs of the 1950 layout which coincides with the Boys Club time frame. The 1953 layout track diagram is included in the second part, which is a bit later period than the Boys Club version. Additional source materials are cited.
