    Here it is.

    It is a 2x4 layout.
    The minimum radius curve is 9 3/4.
    It is atlas code 80 track.
    The white area on the layout is where the small city is going to be. That area is 2 inches higher than the base.

    Nice overhead. What? Do you have a traincam or something? :D

    Looking good.

    Nope, just a small airplane taking aerial pictures. :D I have made some more progress on it since this picture. Currently, I'm in the process of scratch building a grain elevator for it. I also successfully repainted my LL SW9 red. I still have to letter it up for the A&J RR.

    Joe, that looks really good! I too have a small 2x4 in N-scale and like to see what others have done with such a small space. If anyone would like, I can post an aerial shot too, I will borrow Joe's surveillance plane! [​IMG]

    Russ:

    Charter that plane right now! Maybe if I see a few more pictures I'll finally get off my *** and build something (got a great sheet of plywood sitting in the garage whimpering at me)

    Russ, you can borrow the plane. Just don't crash it.
    I always love to see more pictures of layouts. It gives more ideas to try out.

    On a side note, it looks like I'm going to have a new home for my layout and me. This whole home buying process has been slowing me down on getting work done on the railroad. The really good part is that I will have a whole room to devote to trains. [​IMG]

    Here is the current state of the layout. I added a ramp for the road to the upper level. I also added the in progress grain elevator.

    Sorry guys for the long wait but I had to get up the nerve to go up in Joe's airplane :D Here is an aerial shot of my 2x4 Hoffman Valley Railroad. As you can see it too is in a state of construction (well,....procrastination on my part) ;)

    Nice looking looking railroad. Looks like you have made alot more progress than me. I might actually make some real progress if I ever quit trying to rearrange the track.
