A better idea

Check out this youtube video:  

Looks like construction mode is mostly table top at different levels, with a very few grades between. So much for L girder construction!

 

Wish i'd thought of this; I have tried to jigsaw cut track boards to my plan, and fill in with scenery on cardboard webbing and plaster impregnated gauze. This looks like a whole lot easier; admittedly, it might have limited the track plan to something less realistic, but I could have easily made that trade.

Interesting cross between a table top and cookie cutter design.

Nicely done.  Still plenty to do, but thats a good thing.  I've been working on my own layout since late 2020 and always seem to find room for improvement or to ad an accessory or little scene.
