Well what you've got looks good so far! I'm not sure where you've having problems but make sure to keep the image size below 640x440 pixels and a file size of 66K.
 
well, i need 2 more pieces of flextrack to have the first mainline done. i ran out. then i can start laying track on the 2nd mainline, and siddings and branchs to coal mine, yard, turntable, and whetever i decide on.

as soon as i can get the wife sat down long enough to resize the pics.
 
well, i stopped at my LHS, picked up 12 more pieces of flextrack. 2 box cars, and some paint..... so ill be busy this weekend....lol
