I've been working on my layout for years and now I'm not sure I'll ever reach the starting scenery stage. I think I was too ambitious when I first designed it. Open grid with sawn out roadbed. A table top type sure would be faster. I have so many trains I have quit buying altogether and should sell some.
I recently took up slot cars and became enthusiastic about them and am building a track. Designing, tablework and track work is similar to model railroading.
Dennis,
Don't feel bad, I think many of us feel you never ever really finish a layout...there is always something more that needs to be tinkered with. For you and anyone else with layouts in whatever stage of progress, if you folks have time, maybe you can post some pictures of your layouts.
