    Here's a long shot looking up the length of the top leg of the E that is the basic shape of my layout.

    I know some of you guys have asked for a track plan. the only plans I have are blueprints that are huge and right now I have no way of reducing them to managable size.

    That's what you get when one of them architects draw up the plan. BTW they were done 23 yrs ago. The gentleman that drew up the original plan was Mr. William Badger, AIA, Manchester VT. He designed the railroad in 1979. He also designed the first Alpine Slide in the United States at Bromley Mt. VT

    Looks like the room has a decent amount of space. What are it's dimensions? Maybe we could get somewhat of a feel for the layout size from this info?

    :D

    Chris,

    That is certainly some layout you are building, keep the pics coming I'm really enjoying seeing the enormity of your project.

    Rough dimensions of just this leg of the layout:
    Length from the very bottom of the above frame, just below the round house up to just past the building in the distance with the white dot on the side is 19+/- feet. the width is 6 +/- ft from edge to edge at the round house.

    Looks very nice! I'd like to see the track plan if you can get it downloadable. Thanks for the great pics and update!

    Wow! Can I come over and play?

    Looks great. I wish I had half that space to work with.
