The layout fills a basement around the walls I would guess about 35 x 40 feet or a bit bigger..... with a smaller inner loop where the mainline goes first under itself, makes a loop and then over where it entered the peninsula and then continues on around the perimiter wall. There is about 14 inches of grade seperation at the crossing, so the grade is real and requires some effort to make., though not excessive. I'm looking forward to the next running session. The layout is designed mostly for 'running trains' , not for way-freight switching, and for running, it sure it is fun. We usually have 2 or 3 trains runing, One will have priority and require the others to take a siding to be passed when it catches up. Thanks for reading my story about the double heading.....it was really something!.
