A mini-scene

We haven't had anyone attacking Brocolli since George H.W. was in the White House. The good news is I don't "see" the brocolli, just a good job on a mini scene, and the brocolli will blend in. Remember one of the lessons about details, a little bit of detail makes the viewer assume that the rest of the RR is as highly detailed, by just a "hint" of scenery, and detail parts. Which leads to the good news about ballasting, there is a lot of rail hidden behind other scenes, or at a distance that only requires the hint of detail not the full blown effort at the front of the "stage". Excellent work on your scene, and all that "work" on the rest of the layout is just a little bite at a time of more mini scenes. <br />Just an additional thought with the design of the layout, you might want to create mini scenes, a yard, an industry, a small rural town etc. and then take these mini scenes or "design elements" and work them into an overall plan by connecting them with a transition area. <br />HTH and hang in there you are doing very well and have a lot of support out here! <br />Will
