I'm ready to give it a try. First layout!

Landscaping is going a little slow since my daughter’s basketball team is playing almost every night right now. But since they are 29-4 it has been worth making every game. They broke the 1,000-point total four games back, not bad for a 5-6-grade team. Well in any event I did get some work done.

My challenge was what to do between the tracks. I choose to use some ballast that would be a close match for the fastrack. I added a small tower and some bushes.

[FONT=&quot]I hope you like it.

Thanks CB for taking the time to look again. It has been fun and at the same time a lot of work. I enjoy your your layouts in addition they look like a ton of fun to run. You keep the O gauge forums up and running with all your activity.

I really like your start on the mountains and tunnels.Have you ever tried making trees from bushy weeds spraying them first with hairspray then giving them a good coating of fine green?:wave:

Aren't those tunnel portals made by Chooch products? If so, I just discovered them for n scale and I really like them 'cept they really stink when you start modifying them with the dremel blades.

These are from MTH not what I wanted but they work. I cut mine with a fine blade coping saw. This keeps the heat down and the cut is clean.

Thanks Dr John.

I hope to update the conclusion sometime this week. It is just about completed and I'm pretty much happy with the finished product.
