I have been working on this layout design for a while and before I build it I would like to get some opinions on it. I am looking for realism, to be able to run long trains and scenery. The middle section is going to have a mountain with tunnels most of the track is going to be carved into the mountain only the middle of the curves will go through the mountain to the other side.

I split the layout into three sections

The middle section has been split into three to make construction easier.
