Kinda quiet in this corner of the forum so I thought I would post a pic or two of my little winter passtime. It is based on a real marble quarry in Missouri. That's a papermau service station in the upper left. There will be several more buildings and other things one of these days.

The numbers in circles indicate modules. I don't have much space for the layout, so it sits on my bed when I want to see it. The modules will be removable and sit on shelves when the layout is put away. 'Away' means the baseboard will be hung on the wall.

This is an interesting project you have here.
Do you have loco ^cars that will handle those curves?
 
I have some small "N" scale locos that could handle those curves, and a few cars, and a caboose. No HO scale stuff at all though. It's a nice set up, enough to get lost in. :)

The little layout is fun. It is stored in a shipping container in the back yard. There is about 4’ of snow in front of the door. Hopefully by the 4th of July, I’ll be able to open the container and find that layout and a ton of other modeling goodies.
