- Curve the benchwork in the upper right corner. I think that a nice smooth curving facia (and valence above) will make this look great - almost a museum like setting.
- You might consider flipping a few of the industries at the top and along the right side so the sidings are more accessible. While hiding or partly hiding track behind structures is a great way to add realism and make the layout seem larger, you may not want to risk damaging your prize structures by reaching over to uncouple cars.
Guys, thanks a bunch for all the help. Because of my heart, this will probably be the last layout I can build, so I need it to keep my interest a loooooong time. Thanks to you two, this layout will do that.
Loren.
P.S. pictures after christmas, I hope.
Having experienced the frustration of a layout I was not pleased with, and visiting and operating many layouts around Ottawa, I am happy that I can share some of that with you to help make your layout something that will keep you interested.
