I concur, they both look good!
But I can see the philosophy on the second layout, sometimes less can be more.
I've always figured the layout is a stage and the trains are the actors. Good actors can give a good performance even if the stage is bare.
Both layouts look great! Really love the Highway scene on the New layout!
Personally, I find squeezing into a smaller space requires careful thought about what to keep.Actually, it's a good excercise to decide what is most important.
Lookin' good !
