Hi everyone. Give you some of the planning criteria for the layout. This overall room plan is drawn to 28" squares. I was originally looking at 24" mininum radius, but with 6-axle units for the thru freight power, I will go with 26" mininum radius... The overall dimensions are 25-4 by 12-4. I may place a wall beside the staircase to give us some badly needed storage space. I haven't had much time for figuring out a track plan, since I have been devoting quite a bit of time to getting the room ship-shape first. This was done about four days ago. I keep plugging away and i have made it around the bay. Now to get rid of more of this clutter! Next photos show my current progress... I thought I would take some time and do a mock-up of what a 16" shelf at 52" elevation would look like... Heading off to bed...probably working (on the real trains) tomorrow. Happy easter to all!
Ken.

Hi Ken,
Wow! What an awesome start to what will be a great railroad! Hey, I like the 52" height you've chosen. That means the trains will be at the perfect viewing angle for my 5'4' frame!
