Ok.. thanks for the help, i did some simple redesigning of the layout, and removed the larger trestle across the water, however i did change the lake a bit, and put a trestle over a portion of it, but i think the design is overall much nicer now. Also, im considering using O-Gauge which i beleive is slighly smaller. and can cut the turns tighter. I also changed my mind on the passanger cars, they really dont fit the theme of my yard, so shorter cargo cars are fine. Besides that my tunnel is shorter relieveing an issue. Also, the tunnels will only have about 2-6 inches of dirt over them, so i dont think that it will be a big deal to access the tunnels if needed. As for my grandmothers abilities- my aunt and uncle visit about 3 times a month, and they also happen to have a garden train in the build process, so i am sure they would have no issue helping her. Myself moving to arizona with my father in about a year are both licensed pilots, and have easy access to aircraft, so we will be flying down back to So. Cal pretty much every weekend. either by helicopter, or cessna. So im sure that we i'll be abe to keep it somewhat under control. <br /> <br />Id take some pictures for ya, but my grandmother decide to take my pants sitting next to my bed, and put them through my laundry, which destroyed my camera and cellphone. so as soon as i can get a replacement ill gladly show you what i have to work with as well as my progress. <br /> <br />In the mean time, heres the redesign- <br />http://www.sirsack.com/richards/track%20layout2.jpg <br />[img]http://www.sirsack.com/richards/track%20layout2.jpg[/img]
