Looking good Chuck!

I just wish I had taken the same approach when I did my road bed as I have created quite a mess when it comes to wiring and access below the table.

Regards
Fergie

wow!!! good job. I wished that ,I had that amount of space. My layouts,only 12'x 8'. It used to be a closet..Now bench layout. I have a 3' wide 10' long walkway down the center. It gets cramped at times. I still have a while to go on it. I've been working on it for about 9 months. It has 2 ovals on the lower leval , 2 ovals on middle and on the top level ,I plan to put a route of bussineses with many remote switches and roundhouse, rail yard. well excellent job on your railroad, hope to see more later.

Chuck/Fergie
Both of you guys have good looking layouts.
I am envious of the big yards you both have. I believe that I will tear mine up and start again. It just didn't come out the way I had hoped.

You did a very nice job with your backdrop, and your Sanderson yard is really impressive. Nice use of the space!

12'x8' CLOSET??

heh. that's about two-thirds the size of my GARAGE (where my layout is located.) The biggest closet in my home is 3x6 feet, and my wife uses that as her office!

Nice photos, btw, cwclark! Coming along nicely.
