Hi' i've been building this layout for the better part of 6 months. It is "N" scale 10' x 10' x 24" wide/ With dogbones of about 32" on the ends. I would like to make some real progress while I am off over the holidays. I'm happy with the basic design but unhappy with the yard area. It seems like alot of wasted space and not realistic. I would like a small yard and engine service area. There are three photos of the left / mid / right sections and a rough drawing. The basic layout is double main that crosses over itself in the mid area. Using Unitrack. The Yard area is a flat area 2" above ground zero. Parts of the layout rise and fall via Woodland Scenics Risers. The area of the mine to the right will built on the side of a mountain / tunnel. and is at 2" high. <br /> <br />The mine spur on the left is at ground level. <br /> <br />The yard area and the spurs are not fastened down at this time. Thanks in advance for any ideas. <br /> <br />http://www.saycheesephoto.com/model_trains/layout_left.jpg <br /> <br />http://www.saycheesephoto.com/model_trains/layout_mid.jpg <br /> <br />http://www.saycheesephoto.com/model_trains/layout_updt.jpg <br /> <br />Layout Design: <br />http://www.saycheesephoto.com/model_trains/layout_updt.jpg <br />
