Here is a broader view of that neighborhood where the campers are passing through with their trailers in-tow....
When I first built the platform holding this part of the layout, adding it to the main sections, I experimented with the track you can see exiting from inside the hill placed, instead, on the left (of this photo) side of the hill, in place of the roadway, with no tunnel or exit in there. That track, my #1 Mainline, is situated alongside the very front of the layout for approx. 30' up to that point in the overall panorama, so I was more interested in having more real estate to craft into place than having Mainline#1 outside the hill/plateau. Thus, this roadway, with all its scenic features was established parallel to the tunnel and its track inside. Also, I like tracks and the trains to be somewhere and to go somewhere, andto return from somewhere, to not always be visible every foot of the journey.
