Hi 645,
Good eye. Yes this is "only on the layout". As you know in reality, the Oyster Bay branch runs north and east away from the main at Mineola. I bent the branch line over the main to get the best use of the space. I have a much larger run for the yard and staging area where it is now. I had to use selective compression in deciding what to model. I was going to go with Roslyn instead of Locust Valley, but changed my mind at the last minute. Locust Valley just seems to be a better fit.
