Here's the overview of the newly "completed" scenery, through my Twin Mountain section of the layout.

Well I had my switching done once, and a loop of O-72 curves, then I bought a engine that required O-27 or larger and didn't want to confine the engine to just one loop, I went and bought O-80 curves and redid the loop so now have O-80 and next loop which is started is going to be O-72, giving me two loops I can run it on. 

So here is a couple of Pics as to where I am now, I have all but two switches hooked up and I still have three wire drops to run under the layout and hook up to complet the O-80 loop.

The deck of the house I'm building was just a bit too tempting a stage to sit empty.  So viola!  Dalek Shakespeare!  Laugh

Nice work all!  Thanks for letting us have a look!

Oh Becky, those Daleks!  Those pesky Daleks!  They're never going away, are they?

Buckeye - Have you seen that CSX (Chief's favorite rr) has started painting their business fleet in the classic B&O blue/grey/black paint scheme?

No, I have not seen that classic paint scheme, but I live a long way from CSX tracks. Maybe they will do a Chessie Cat, too.
