 Fred and O´Dave - I took up your recommendations and tried to incorporate them into my plan. This is what came out of it:<img src="http://i682.photobucket.com/albums/vv185/SirMadig/MILW35THSTYARD-B.jpg?t=1244179375" mce_src="http://i682.photobucket.com/albums/vv185/SirMadig/MILW35THSTYARD-B.jpg?t=1244179375" width="1021" height="342"> With the above changes to the original idea, operation seems to be more interesting. What I am not yet fond of, is the single track staging. I was thinking of building a 3 - 4 track traverser in order to have the option of running a "morning train" and an "afternoon" train, without taking loco or rolling stock from the rails. Unfortunately, there is a window on that end which needs to be opened now and then. So something detachable is a must.  I guess I need to think it over... While looking at the plan, some more changes come to mind. If I move the tracks west of the canal a little more to the left, I can make the canal a little wider und put a tug and a barge in there, plus some loading/unloading facility. How´s that?... and here it is!<img src="http://i682.photobucket.com/albums/vv185/SirMadig/MILW35THSTYARD-C.jpg?t=1244187095" mce_src="http://i682.photobucket.com/albums/vv185/SirMadig/MILW35THSTYARD-C.jpg?t=1244187095" width="1021" height="342">  What do the experts say?
