nice job well financed i see. But a little boring there is no life. Add people and tell a story at each location.

Really nice railroad. It has all my favorite stuff; bridges, water, nice trackwork and plenty of trains. A lot of work and care is exhibited in this layout.

Curious as to what your min. radii is for the 4/88/4 to run on.

There is life at 4:13. I think i saw someone saving 15% or more on their car insurance. Nice layout.

thanks for all the comments and compliments! We have 10ft diameter curves throughout the layout. the mallet runs great! We do have some 8 ft diameter curves going into the storage yard and the mallet takes them fine as well. We are slowly adding details. Each year we have a focus ( and budget) year 1 was the outer loop, year 2 was inner loop, year 3 was landscaping, this year we focused on the waterfall and trolley line. The trolley line was built using leftover track. Next year we hope to fill out the towns and villages and get some details added in.
