I have a custom built layout that was bought as a bay front layout. I since have removed the bay and added a couple of switching yards by filling in the areas with extruded foam, and started to expand the layout plan so it can be added on to in the future. I haven't been able to work on this layout since early may of 2008. It has since been in storage until this last weekend when I have placed it back on a table to decide if I'm going to sell it, or continue to build it. I had to removed the yard and a custom built bridge I made to cross a river going into a railyard/expansion area for later expansion when it gets a room, or garage to house it.I do alot of kit-bashing, and also I custom build some of me buildings from cardboard from packaging found on cereals, toothpaste, and other types of heavy compressed cardboard. I have some photos I will post form when the layout was at its most completed point before it was taken down to be placed in storage after we moved. Please tell me what you guys think. Thanks, Rob This photo is the plan when I had it built.

Interesting addition. The curves in the added bay area look pretty tight (small). I will move this thread to the layout Design forum as I am sure they will have inputs there. BTW, good first post with all the pictures and everything. Welcome to TrainBoard. [edit] This is a very nice cardboard scratchbuilt elevator. Great job! :thumbs_up:
