Rock formations on the backdrop based on the Bisti Wilderness of New Mexico
Here's the latest wrinkle :
Penny Trains Yeah. That's one of the things that bugs me about having a small layout space, there's only room for one extremely short siding for the milk car and platform. All the other open spaces on my wonky ovoid are either out of sight or, like you had, inside a tunnel. Oh well! One of these days I'll get the S gauge it's own board and then I can have operating cars besides the kind where a man opens a door.

a small layout space forces discipline! Tough choices, and priorities...
Trains, trains, wonderful trains. The more you get, the more you toot!
Got excited, and forgot to caption the last shot !!
The dump cars are my favorites!!
Want to get a log dump car next !!
Drop depth charges !!!
I don't have the correct barrels, but chucking these dowels is a blast !!!
I want to see, and enjoy my operating cars. Not only will this location need a bridge, but some receptacle for jettisoned material...
I moved my UCS strip from the original location, which would be inside the tunnel now
One of the fun things about the Toy Train hobby is the operating cars. I'm running a train of them.
Penny Trains What a great spot for unloading milk cans! Look out beloooooow!
