Specs: Minimum radius (Main Line): 24" (mostly 26" and larger. Minimum radius (Branch/non-mainline): 19" Minimum radius (Spur): 15" Code 83 track Turnouts: Peco, Shinohara, Atlas Layout type: point to point/terminal switching Design is single deck, but may decide to add second deck modeling MEC Mountain division,  the decks will not be connected. Era: Circa 1945 Railroad: Protofreelanced Boston and Maine Central. Blue lines are benchwork rough draft Gray Box are no track areas/wall Bottom Left side is SD Warren Paper Co, Westbrook, ME. There will be a crossover from the arrival/departure track in RigbyYard to the main line.  The software would not let me trim the Shinohara curved turnout to eliminate a 1 degree offset.  This will be corrected during construction (likely will have to handlay all of the curved turnouts due to unavailablility). Any one see any major issues?  Also why is Walthers writting "Out of Stock, no information from the manufacturer" on their own brand?  Are they not in communication with their own factory contractor[#dots] Red line is scenery divider: Right had side is Portland, ME CN (PTC trackage rights)/ Left hand side of divider is South Portland, ME.
