On a side note, @luvindemtrains @G3750 @PRR8976 as a younger fella from Youngstown in the 90s, I enjoy hearing about the neighborhoods and whatnot. It's funny how some things haven't changed at all in some areas here.
How long? Well, that's a tough question to answer exactly. Check out this plan. Main Street (WV Route 2) starts out elevated in the upper right corner (against the divider) and moves left. It dog-legs between the mills until it crosses the 2 tracks and then descends to ground level. The light green sections are abutments; I've shown them above the road to indicate their placement. Main Street then proceeds along the lower edge of the layout all the way off to the left. Roughly, Main Street is 28' long.
@BillYo414, I wish I could show some of the town, but it's all gone. In my mind, I can still see the glint of graphite on the ground, smell the steel-making, and feel the life of that place. But there's no way to make what's left seem alive.
