Liked your layout work, Mike. Looking forward to the next one.
As to doing a build that can be easily disassembled, I'm a proponent of sectional construction, not per se for being able to take it down, but for maintenance issues involving major work. A section can be removed and put up on a vertical stand rather than having to lie underneath it or reach over it for several hours. This is in situations where a turnout or track section needs replacing or major service.
thanks matt. absolutely. great idea on the sectional pieces for maintenance. even though my layout room is carpeted it still is a pain to get under the layout and wire, fix, whatever. one thing i did design in the layout was there was nothing deeper than 36" or i could reach the track from both sides. so that helped out immensely.
