I was able to spend sometime working on the layout again today. I set the height for the second level and put things in place for the engine yard and where a service facility will be. I also got up the second level on the opposite of the layout, that will be a 16' straight section. This may change slightly since I might put some bridges in there instead just a plain straight area. Lastly I got the slot track up so that I can now build around it. The slot track is on the lowest level. The trains will be 3" above. Oh, DALEHARDY, that is 3/4" plywood on top of the benchwork. Next I need to get some sheets of foam since I used what I had.
thanks
