Holy crap! That is awesome. I would love to see the /ral file so I can get the item list from Atlas. Funny, I never saw a #8 turnout on the library for Atlas code 100 track though. So let me ask you a few questions: -- Can you make the yard have 3 spurs in stead of the 2? -- Could you maybe make the round house facility a little smaller? -- I think it looks good without the siding in between the mainline and the short line to the north. That will give me much more room in the inner loop to extend some of that stuff out. -- I just watched "Workin on the Railroad" last night on DIY Network and got very interested in roundhouses. My 3 year old was very excited by them too, so I might just have to add the round house to mine. -- The bottom 2 tracks on my yard were going to be locomitive facilities, maybe fuel and an office, but with the round house I would rather add those facilities to the round house area. Could you try to fit a spur nearer the roundhouse? -- I looked but can't imagine it. You seem to have a better imagination than me so maybe you can find a way to lower the yard a bit to the south and squeeze some locomotive facilities near the roundhouse. I am also thinking of going 5' X 8' now. I shouldn't have much difficulty reaching into the center of a 5' wide layout. I mean that is only a 2.5' reach from either side! Can you try to RELAY this out on 5' X 8' for me and try to make the changes I have suggested? Also, email me the .ral too (Considering that you wouldn't mind--I don't mean to ask too much!) tlavagna@hotmail.com Thanks everyone!!!!
