I just want to take a moment to thank Frank for starting this topic. It has inspired me to begin making my layout more like my dream layout.
Ideally, I would change my layout to be an historically accurate O Gauge model of the Putnam Division of the NY Central, also known as The Put. That is a lofty goal for me. Although I do not know whether I will achieve that goal, I am confident I can make my layout have more features in common with The Put. Arnold
