This cut stone retaining wall was made in a curve. I learned how to set the mold on blocks and weight it so the plaster would cure and give me a radiused piece.

While I have quite a few doubledoor boxcars, I'm a big fan of door-and-a-half cars, too. Here are a few...
...this one has two doors on each side, but only one on each side would be in-use at any given time...

Here is a section of the layout I had to rebuild because of frequent derailments.
Originally there was an Atlas #8 curved turnout at the Apex of this curve. My Ribbonrail gauge indicated the inside curve was 30" and my full length passenger cars would often derail trying to take the inside curve. It's still about a 30" radius at the apex, but because there are much broader easements leading to it, they are able to negotiate the turn.
A Peco #7 curved turnout, which actually has broader radii than the Atlas #8, was moved to the right as shown below.
You can see where the outside curve originally was located and has since been rerouted. The passenger station is just to the right of this photo.
I'm not going to reballast this section or rebuild the grade crossing until I've done enough operating sessions that I have confidence the derailment problem has been resolved, but the early testing has been promising.
Show a section of your layout you have rebuilt or is otherwise under construction.

This was a track realignment behind the new roundhouse where a stub-siding was reconfigured into a through siding:

More changes, modifications or additions to your layout, please.
After adding a partial upper level over some of my original layout, I realised that some turnouts on the lower level were now a lot more difficult to reach. I was able to pick-up four Rapido turnout motors at a very reasonable price, but it was more work than I had expected to install them, and more mess, too...
...this one was the hardest to reach, both due to the distance and the fact that nearby structures were not removeable...
I did get them installed though, and they work well. Here's one after the clean-up...
These two operate off the same fascia-mounted switch, as both need to move if the crossover is to be used...
...and the hardest-to-reach-one got cleaned-up, too...
