My personal taste is not to hide the train that much.
I think you will miss the play value of the sidings. You will tire of the running only. But, then you will have something to do - build another or change this one.
I have Autodesk Inventor. At first, I started playing around with the table design to get material cut sheets. Then I decided to draw the track.
Although I like the sidings in the middle, they get in the way of the mountains and supports. I spent a day trying to get it right but I didn’t like how it was turning out.
Do you think the future 2’x4’ siding table will satisfy the play value? It provides 3 longer sidings than the middle. I was thinking of maybe only having 2 there and add a sawmill or something.
I’m learning it’s a compromise when I have a small space. Yes, a good portion of the track is covered. I’m trying to figure a way to minimize that and still have a mountain logging, mining feel. I’m learning it’s not easy. But I’m having fun so far.
Late to the party, sorry if this has already been covered.
Questioning the use of hardboard on the upper level, especially the pegboard. Given the distance between supports, I'm concerned that it will sag over time, on its own and especially under the weight of trains.
Aside from that, I think the plan is good given the amount of space.
