Hello, sorry I haven't checked it lately, I'll update it in the next couple of days. I have made some modifications to the layout and have completed a full size drawing (on construction paper) on the floor. My knees are still killing me [:)] . I've been buying up track and turnouts (code 83) and have begun getting some wood together for the benchwork. I've changed some of the design in the last couple of days due to a discussion reguarding helix radii, but basically it is the same design with a helix, underneath staging and some broader dimensions in certain areas. I wanted to incorporate a 130' turntable and two 3-stall roundhouses I've built.

Thanks for the interest.
