<p>Hey Chip,</p><p>You're Right - This is only a very rough draft. As of now I am only committed to my available space. I want to utilize the space that I have available, and not sacrifice operation. I will be looking for ideas all along the way. First I wanted to develop a working main line and yard with the allotted space, and work from there. I already have some of the structures that I will be using, which will help in determining spurs and sidings. </p><p>I would like the yard in the front so I could have different elevations, but am sure how to do this because of the geometry of the room. I do not want to have to crawl under the layout every time that I want to operate or maintain it</p><p>The era will be late 60's early 70's along the RF&P in Richmond, VA. (Which is flat) including the CSX merger. This allows a lot of different motive power. </p><p>As I mentioned earlier, I would appreciate any and all opinions.</p><p>paul739</p>
